@@MillieMochiTunes This is as bluesy as blue can get with the guitar scales (killer) and an organ as you'll ever hear. Deep purple Rocks like nobody else and the album "In Rock" by Deep Purple is one of their best albums ever.
@@MillieMochiTunes Just Subscribed again! I love your energetic and enthusiastic reactions to a song I saw performed by Deep Purple at The Royal Albert Hall, West London, with 5,000 others and the cost? 25 PENCE.....LOL
Yes, but expensive though! I saw them performed by Deep Purple at The Royal Albert Hall, West London, with 5,000 others around 1974/75 and the cost? 25 PENCE.....😁
Jon Lord (RIP) was an absolute wizard on his cut-down Hammond P3 organ. Combine him with the legendary guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, thrown in Ian Paice on drums, Roger Glover on bass with the brilliant vocals of Ian Gillan and you have Deep Purple Mk2 - the best version of DP IMHO
The story of recording the Machine Head album is told on the track "Smoke On The Water." When the band decamped to Montreaux, they were set to record the album at the casino there, which also served as a concert hall, but it burned down the day after they got there. They had the Rolling Stones' mobile unit with them to record, so instead of recording at the casino, they parked it at their hotel and record there. It took them about two weeks to complete the album.
Millie. You're a bassist. You didn't mentioned the bass runs . This is one of the most underrated bassist on the planet. Whenever you react to these guys, remember, the singer, lead guitar, and keyboard player were all up front. The bass and drums were passed over. Listen again to all instruments. This band had so much talent that some got pushed to the side.
It was unusual for any rock band to employ both a keyboard and a bass player. The late Jon Lord was one of the best (and my favorite) keyboard players. Roger Glover is no slouch as bassists go. He's still with the newest incarnation of DP. To get an idea of his abilities, check out "Pictures of Home." DP will always be known as one of the greatest groups of the 60s and 70s. No one in the band could be even remotely "underrated."
If you should happen to see this comment, you should know that included in the song, "Pictures of Home" (also from Machine Head) is a stunning, but too short bass run. The last time I looked, Roger Glover is still playing bass in the latest incarnation (Mark 317?) of DP. And he wrote "Pictures of Home."
About ten years ago blues/rock guitar prodigy, Joe Bonamassa, and Aussie great, Jimmy Barnes, did a very good cover of this song in tribute to the 40th anniversary of the release of the Deep Purple Machine Head Album.
My favorite song from this album! I mean the Machine Head album is a kick ass! Not one bad song on it! The reason I say this is my favorite song is because Jon Lord’s intro. It’s the perfect break song to play on stage while the vocalist rests his/ her voice. Then the drums are so tight with the bass! Also the organ solo was so good!
This is as bluesy as blue can get with a guitar and an organ as you'll ever hear. Deep purple Rocks like nobody else and the album "In Rock" by Deep Purple is one of their best albums ever.
Imagine us when we first heard this in 1972 on 8-Track and able to listen to it in our cars??? with the reverb on!!! with the windows down because most of us did not have air conditioning. No need to imagine it because your video reaction says it all!! ;-)
This is one of the few hard rock groups I enjoyed in the 60's-70's. "Smoke On The Water" is their most popular song. Everyone has heard that famous riff. Some of my favorites are their covers of Joe South's "Hush" & Neil Diamond's "Kentucky Woman", "Woman From Tokyo", "Fireball", "Speed King", "Space Truckin'" etc.
Millie, stop being Lazy, that version was great, now let's take it up a notch or two the same track from Made in Japan, IMHO is far better. To be honest DP from this era are better live than the studio versions. Enjoy
I was lucky to see guitar legend Ritchie Blackmore 8 times, 4 with Deep Purple (twice with Ian Gillian and twice with David Coverdale) then 4 times with Rainbow (twice with Ronnie James Dio and once each with Graham Bonnet then Joe Lynn Turner). Every time was great though the classic Deep Purple lineup Mark 2 was the best for me both in studio and on stage. Lazy is an awesome song, a big shout out to the late, great Jon Lord on Keyboards. Can't get much better than that or the entire album it comes from. When you have a chance, check them out live in NY 1972, they were fire there and also the David Coverdale version of the band at the California Jam 1974, do You Fool No One, that is a great song that turns into a great jam and one of Ritchie's best guitar solos on video. Just a kick butt experience, I saw them in Hartford CT the same tour. Amazing and enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶
And watch the California Jam to the end when Ritchie lays into the camera with his guitar and then blows up his amps with petrol inside, just a bit of fun!!🤭👍
Yep, one of my veriest favs! THIS is what my tiny 10 year old brain was trying to process in '72, and one of the key foundational bricks I trod on through the 70s and far beyond. Keep 'em coming! Cheers rl 🤘👹🤘
That's Jon Lord showing out and you have to remember that those era of Hammond organs were Beast to play. Just mastering the voltage swells and the complexity of it and how cantankerous they were and even moving them because they were tremendously heavy, that is dedication. So by the time you get to his level, he's going to get every last thing out of that that he can. He's going to dominate it. But it is not an easy Beast to Tang at all. And of course it's hilarious that he runs it through a marshall stack or whatever and then often plays in unison with the guitar to where people don't even realize he's playing. This is his chance to just put it out there for a minute.
I love the way you dance. I grew up with this and I swear to God, you would have fit right in in the 70s to this scene. You definitely would have easily. It's funny that this is not only one of my favorite Deep Purple songs off one of my favorite albums of theirs, Machine Head, on that iconic album it is back-to-back with this song lazy, and it's called space Truckin. Another big hit and a favorite off of this album
Top band in the world 1973 and 1984. Gate receipts and lps sold. 130 million lps sold. Not bad for a band in America that get no respect. Jon Lord passed rip.
My sister worked at a place here in York. Pennsylvania in 1972 maybe 73 I think it was 72 anyhow. It was called record club of America. It was a record distributor warehouse. What have you? I got my very first album. She vot it for a quarter because the cover was damaged at the top. That album was deep purple machine head
Yeah, early Deep Purple were great, Lazy is such an amazingly great jam! Thank God for the ‘70s right?!… Oh and by the way Millie, you are too cute!…. Another great reaction 😊
Loved your reaction, Millie! THis such a great song from a really fantastic album. The entire band are all excellent musicians, and you won't be disappointed with any Deep Purple track. Rock On!
the purple knew how to take simple blues rock and make it something magnificent, as a guitarist this was always my favorite song of theirs due to the spectacularly excellent Blackmore solos, and of course Lord makes his Hammond organ shine like a thousands suns as well
There's nothing quite like seeing just how timeless good music is... you're at least 2 generations younger than me, but you jumped right into the awesomeness that is classic Deep Purple.
@@MillieMochiTunesI love seeing young people passionate about music, especially if it's a band I loved in my youth. Stay so playful! 🙂 I got one plea for you: the band's name is Rainbow. The guitarist is the same, vocalist is even better. You'll like it, believe me.
The guys were obviously having enormous fun here - playing a kind of Musical Joke (in the BEST sense of the word) on the unsuspecting first-time listener. Great, great stuff!!
Not bad for an album recorded in a vacant hotel with a mobile recording unit,after the original place they planned on using burned down while Frank Zappa was performing on stage.
The introduction to this song is so cool...the organ almost sounding like your sitting down in church...than the drums...and the bass and finally the guitar ...and it sounds like a real swinging ...blues band and than Ian starts singing...just classic Deep Purple and my favorite band especially DP mark 2.
Great moves Millie Mochi! Very cool! This was my fave album to drum to when I was a 13..14! Drove my sisters bananas :). 45 years ago! Yikes! Good to see young people enjoy real musicians. Hello from Canada and if you would have been at one of our junior high school dances you'd be the first one I asked to dance! God Bless you!
If you want to listen to a kick ass rock and roll band and song I suggest Grand Funk Railroad, Inside looking out. You will love it. Just a three piece band with so much sound. Lots of bass. Stay well and be safe.
Deep Purple were awesome whether it was Ian Gillan out front or indeed David Coverdale. Great that the younger generation appretiates stuff like this. You ought to check out Rainbow (Ritchie Blacmores next band) particularly when Graham Bonnet was the vocalist. I reckon it will be right up your street.
