Coming from the Horse's mouth Jon described his aggressive approach to playing as " Guerrilla Playing", not in just live performances he would literally lift the Keyboard while he's playing,that kind of energy is heard & felt. Akin to Jimi or Stevie Ray, or Jeff Healey using distortion & riggerous application & pull on the whammy bar while the axe is on the stage,Jack White also on " Sitting On Top Of The World" teaching his " Younger self" on " This Might Get Loud" Rockumentry with Jimmy Page & the Edge,a must see for any fan of guitar music ❤❤❤😊
I'm 70 years old and have seen them many.. many times from MK 2 and up... and I still get goosebumps watching these videos and remembering the mind-blowing concerts, I'm sure they will always be in the history archives as trendsetters of rock greats... MK2 is still the Greatest lineup, just feel lucky I lived at the time to see such a great band!.
Visti a Genova, era appena uscito Made in Japan, fu un delirio di bellezza. Non 10:41 si può dire altro. Li rividi a Milano ma nonostante l'incredibile potenza, non fu la stessa magia. Forse non una serata top, ma si era già ( quasi ) ai titoli di coda.
They had a frayed relationship with Ritchie often making life difficult for Ian. It can be quite stressful for vocalists to belt out super high range screams for long periods. And Ritchie would often choose songs that were toughest for Ian to sing, like Child in Time at moments when Ian was tired or near exhaustion in a concert.
His drum breaks at the end are like a whole bunch of Fourth of July rockets going off at once -- such incredible power and control. A strong influence of Gene Krupa...
@@frankcusterSame here (almost). I saw them on this tour in RI. Whenever Jon Lord soloed and hit the higher notes on his organ, it felt just like a knife going through my head! But the loudest concert for me was Mountain in '74. Anyone I knew that attended that show walked out with a splitting headache.
I saw them in May of '73 in Providence. Boy, they WERE f&cking loud as hell! I was 15 and thrilled to be there! My ears were still ringing the next day.
@@Gunners_Mate_Gunsif I'm not mistaken Jon Lord was also one of the first to plug a Hammod B3 organ into a couple of Marshall stacks instead of using a Leslie or two to plug into. Jon Lord was also a classicly trained keyboardist!!
@@julianjeffbissette7238 he used Marshall amps and little device called "ring modulator" (the little box on top of the Hammond), to get his famous dirty growling sound, sometimes indistinguishable from electric guitar
My first live concert was Deep Purple 1975 in Hamburg. It was too loud, the acoustics were miserable, but I was in heaven. I was fifteen years old. Unforgettable.
I cannot compare musicians for each brings his or her own set of skills. Jon Lord and Keith Emerson and Rick Wakeman each was truly gifted on his craft in their own unique ways. ... They all bore a magnificent showmanship in their own right. . Long live the progressive keyboardist that enthused us all!!
What happened to this planet? Geez, where do we start? I'm 66 now and would love to go back to the early 70's and stay there - just for the concerts, if for no other reason.
This is very cool. I was in a band in the 90s and we covered Space Trucking. It was always the last song of our set because I would scream so much at the end I had no voice left.
This must have blown New Yorkers minds. we already knew about Deep Purples blistering live shows in England.i first saw them in 1970 in Manchester and they were special,everybody knew that.
I am so blown away by how "ON" Ian Paice is here.(as well as the whole band). I would not think that any other drummer could have played like this in the early 70s. So much energy and drive and yet the groove is there in buckets. Under rated is an expression that is over used, but I definitely don't think that Ian gets the true credit he deserves. Truly the Buddy Rich of Rock!
ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-LpOv3ff28L0.html check this status quo track out, John Coughlan on drums is phenomenal to keep that pace up for nearly 10 minutes.
@@roylatty5454 John plays a shuffle for 10 minutes but if you have practiced it's easy. Paice is playing during the jam a chord/song structure but improvising during that process, he is fucking phenomenol, Lord and Blackmore are making up solos which he has to work with. When he gets the signal "this is the ending" or "this is another fucking big solo" he has to be aware of that. His foot/hand work/rhythms and timing are exceptional. I'd be surprised if there is a band that would dare do this now or since 1973.
yeah John Bonham and Keith Moon could hold up to this for sure. not to take away from Ian Paice. to compare him to those two is the best there ever was. Neil Pert and Carmine Appice should be in there too
completely agree!! with tons of class and touch he supports lord and blakcmore who in turn have to land in a the silk. a drummer like him is 100% game changer. never find words to define hime. maybe just: 'Jan Paice'
They just blended in with all the other great bands of the early 70's ... Every known prog and rock band were at their peaks in 73 ...I was there, as a teen. I feel blessed to still be alive and to have had that experience........ It's nice to be able to appreciate them now that the other bands have had their days...
Really, what can you say? This was "organ" I'zed INSANITY! Such an "all-star" band. I last saw them with ELP, on a birthday at Universal Amphitheater...I was near the stage right in front of the speakers and could "feel the power"...what a show that was...
I can't find a single clear, synched video of Blackmore with DP playing a decent solo. Too band. My band played 6 tunes off of Machine Head, I used to idolize that band. TBH I think Blackmore was better in Blackmore's Night. Nothing against DP, they were great at their genre but Blackmore can do so much more than that.
Never saw them live except on youtube.. Question: What were they using for a PA? Subs ? Mains? Ive heard that back in the 70's Claire Audio was the main source for FOH gear..(FOH Front Of House PA)
to all millennials watching...THIS was rock n roll! your grandpa music which is insane was SO much better than anything today...1973!!! deep purple with jon lord made them so unique...what other band had this sound? Glover like most bass players get overlooked, but he was amazing...this band looked so cool as well...when men were men...love the hats roger wore...
It's too bad to think of all these new generations who aren't ever going to get a speeding ticket simply because Space Truckin' or Highway Star was blastin' out of the 8 track.
72 Plymouth Roadrunner 426 bored 60 over, 3/4 cam, glass packs, twin Holly 650 double pumpers, 140 mph, listening to this with Wal-Mart mind blowers we almost lifted off the ground! Fantastic! We were Space Truckin!!
This was a show at NYC Hunter College, I saw them 2 nights later at the Felt Forum (beneath Madison Square Garden). One of the greatest rockinest shows I was ever saw
Yo pienso lo mismo en vivo son unos monstruos Ian sus maneras de cantar tan expresiva ...yo hasta q no lo vi en RU-vid no sabía q era tan bueno a mi tb me gusta y valoro la expresión q ellos tienen la mejor nota los dos Ian muy sencillos. Muy naturales
I was friends of Richie for several years,i met him in coca beach,i was in the navy at the time,i didnt know they were preforming there.we were in a coca beach coffee shop when i reconized him,i had seen them 3 times before.Wgot to chatting,and after that well it was great. He gave me 7 back stage tickets to the show, and also gave me 10 tickets to eric clapton show in palm beach . anyway its all fun
Cocoa Beach, Florida coffee shop? Do you remember the name of the shop or where in Cocoa Beach it was located? And, where in Cocoa Beach was the show? Wonder how I missed that!!?!
I believe Machine Head was the first album where he used a Rickenbacher. He later said he felt like it's aggressive characteristic tone was competing too much with everyone else and so stopped using it as his primary bass.
When I first heard Speed King I was blown away and hooked line and sinker. Mk2 were my favourite line up, only regret was I never got to see them live. Mk3 Burn tour in the UK was my first of many Purple experiences. Love Ritchie always will and Paicey is the engine room of a monster outfit no question.
Music like this is literally extinct. There is no new band with this much talent, song writing ability, and charismatic presence on stage, while still looking classy, bad ass, and sophisticated all at the same time. Rock royalty right there..
Бро, ты 52 года назад расстался с женой, а ты сам жив? Держись, но, интересно. Я поддерживаю, я в Абхазии, вам понятнее Россия. Но мы не Россия. Обожаю Deep Purple. Long live rock rol.
Sweet Jesus! I know they have recognition but This band is heavily underrated to the popular audience. What’s a great great band. Full of great musicians and a badass singer. I recognized years ago the intro of Enter Sandman is taken from this song, the rhythm part that accommodates the “come on, come on” singing part. I love this band
You’re so right! Purple should’ve ruled 70’s airwaves but they fought amongst themselves too much and once Ian Gillian left and then Blackmore they never recovered and Zeppelin knocked them off
My older friends! seen the Purple at Hara arena in Dayton Ohio for the machine head tour. in 72 Best concert and Hara was shaking so bad they thought that building was going too collapse. Loudest band at the time and never too be repeated.
@@sebastiansantos7201 Led Zeppelin, Jethro Tull all in parts of their career were Hard Rock in that generation. Deep Purple was definitely the precursor to Metal that is undeniable. Not metal by today's standards no but like everything metal has evolved (mostly not for the good but there is still good metal music coming out if you look hard). I am a 57 year old metal head so I know. I have been with it from the start and have seen metal grow over the ages. All music is defined by its chord progressions, modes and scales and that alone puts Deep Purple in the genre of early metal.
This is from the ABC "In Concert" show, which aired on Friday nights in the early-/mid-1970s. In addition to this episode, I recall seeing one with the Allman Brothers Band.
