Back when bands could play live
Plenty of bands can still play well live. Just saw Disturbed in concert a couple of months ago; they were great.
better live .. they perfected the studio tracks improvising on the road.
Stupid comment.
The sound of my youth - Deep Purple, Led Zepplin, etc - what a time to be young, no auto tune just pure talent!
Si señor,el talento murió con el autotune
Mine too. You forgot Black Sabbath, which rounded out the unholy trinity at the time. Great stuff.
@@thomasferguson2795 Actually it was a quadrant. Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Uriah Heep, Led Zeppelin.
@@CB-xr1eg Yes can’t forget Uriah Heep but most people do.
lol led Zep 🤣🤣🤣
The GREAT Ian Paice on drums.
Paice - an absolute legend!
The best
So good that no one even notices that he drops a stick at one point.
ABSOLUTELY SIK ON THEM DRUMZ! Paicey's (Paice) single stroke rolls were almost as fast as Buddy Rich!
eheheh true, thanks of it we feel them more near to us mortal ones! :D @@ramonacosta2647
R.i.p. Jon Lord. He was amazing on the organ...one of the best. You are missed, but your music lives on.
Well said
Agreed. Jon Lord, Don Airey and maybe even Rick Wakeman. They were all masters of the electronic keyboard
I heard you were amazing on John Lord's organ.😁😁😁😆
@@musicman5532Keith Emerson
Yes!!! R.I.P Jon.
They didn't have ear buds back then so when he reaches up to his ear he is plugging it off so he can hear his pitch in his head...true masters of their craft...💜💜💜💜💜
John Lord , organist, was classically trained and could have played in whatever genre at the highest standards. RIP.
This song has what most songs these days don't have...dynamics
And transitions, analog warmth, musicians with actual instruments on stage, not just a singer and her dancers, for a 3 minute, repetitive pop dity that says nothing and goes nowhere, yech!
Es más simple tiene arte y sobre todo imaginación.
Modern producers are addicted to compression. It has its place, but they've gone too far.
True emotions with real musicians.
@@ramonacosta2647
Where does compression have its place.. other than primary school ?
I take the scream as the soldier's internal silent scream he couldn't vocalize without giving away their position while hearing the bullets fly and the ricochets.
That is quite similar to the way I feel about it.
I think you're right but at the end he is dealing with PTSD and ends up committing sui**de
All five band members were provided room and space to show their prodigious abilities.
Ritchie Blackmore...one of the greatest guitar players to ever walk the face of the earth.
Playing a Gibson on this song
Yep. There are parts in his solos that only dogs can hear, I'm sure.
5 people being at the absolute peak of their craft. This iteration of Deep Purple (popularly called the "Mark II" lineup), is easily their best :)
I agree, I like Mk3 & Mk1 in that order after but no Ritchie Blackmore (& later Jon Lord) = No Deep Purple for me, no matter how talented the replacements.
@@vicprovost2561 Everyone has their favorite Marks and performers, for example, for me there is no Deep Purple without Gillan, but without Blackmore I perceive it just fine.
@@ninoorjon I'm with you, I like Deep Purple without Gillan but with Gillan, they're unstoppable. I love Gillan's solo album, Futureshock, It's very good.
and the time ... when rock was new, all of them were the foundation, think of electric instruments on stage and studio became hard rocking, DP showed how far and extrem improvisation can get. In that times we got mindblowing new albums to hear. And Jon really made me love Hammond sounds.
btw Jon loved Jimmy Smith alot, Jazz organ plus distortion, then mics at Leslie cabinets. The pure magic ❤
Regarding the audience not being very animated - this is a frequent comment nowadays, but it's not a concert as we think of them today.
This looks like a television recording, and audiences are told in advance to be quiet or they won't get invited again - tickets were not sold on the door but sent to selected people and so were highly prized.
You can see similarly dead audiences on other shows from that time.
Anyway thanks for reacting to this, I remember it being released when I was still at school and albums were played repeatedly at home and loaned to friends until they were worn out, great days.
With the technology available at the time, it was very difficult to record a band on a TV stage which is not designed as a recording studio. And if the audience made noise (like dancing) forget about it. That's why most such recordings either a) sound like crap, or b) they just lip-synced the track and didn't bother recording it. That said, this recording is excellent, and is a perfect time capsule for the power of Deep Purple at the time. Big thumbs up to the sound engineer on the TV crew - he nailed it.
Also, back in 1970 people had probably never experienced this kind of FIRE before, and Purple put them in a coma. 🤣 But yes, this was recorded for a TV show and audience members were warned ahead of time to be as quiet as possible so as not to interfere with the audio recording. Some of the best live sound recording ever took place in British TV studios. Also check out the live studio recording of Cat Stevens back in 1971. Stunning!
I know that the audience was instructed to be quiet but it still looks so weird. Great performance 🔥
Similar audience takeaway for Led Zeppelin's How Many More Times. Kids sitting around them on the floor just staring like..what IS THIS??! T
Exactly, them being so quiet is the reason we have a high quality sound recording
Ian Gillan left Deep Purple in 1973 and was featured as Jesus on the original album version of Jesus Christ Superstar. HIs recording of "Gethsemane (I Only Want to Say)" is beyond incredible!!
He did Superstar before joining Purple. He rejoined DP when they reformed in 1984, and still remains their lead singer.
@@garyarnett1220 Thanks. I had it backwards. I saw Deep Purple perform in 1974 with David Coverdale (and Glenn Hughes). I would have preferred see Ian Gillan.
@@rickryb4587 I got to see that one in 74 as well. Got tickets for their 73 tour that got postponed, and when they finally came it was with the newer lineup. Have been lucky enough to see them three times with Gillan though, 70, 85, and 98. And totally agree about his performance on Superstar.
Ian Gillan took part in the original recording of Jesus Christ Superstar in 1970 and was chosen by Rice and Lloyd after they heard him perform Child in Time at the Royal Albert Hall in 1969, and the film musical was released in 1973, where the role of Christ was played by Ted Neeley.
Ian's singing on Superstar is ridiculous. He was so good.
If there was an all star band it would be deep purple
One thing I think is cool is the voocals. He's actually singing them as they didn't have auto tune in those days.
Deep Purple is one of those rare bands that sound better live. They are true and extremely talented musicians.
Half a century later this still makes the haolirs on my neck stand up. Child in time, Lazy and Strange Kind of Woman live back then were spectacular
Ritchie Blackmore on guitar is a "Stone Cold" Legend !!
This was recorded during a British tv show and the audience was told to be very quiet
They were told to be quiet as the main object was to record the band and the studio Mics were super sensitive. Any crowd noise would have ruined the quality of the recording and we should be eternally grateful for their restraint.
Were they also told to sit there expressionless and to look bored?
@@johnstorton Should they have sat there grinning like Cheshire cats? It was the 60's so most were probably stoned....meaning they were actually having a blast.😎
@@stevemurrell6167 "Should they have sat there grinning like Cheshire cats?"
I would have been!! LOL
@@johnstorton thankfully you weren't there
… There are many good and very good songs in the history of music. BUT Deep Purple's "Child In Time" falls into the category of the BEST masterpieces of all time!! 💎 🎸🎹🥁🎤 Thank you
The deep of Deep Purple.
Deep Purple and Uriah Heep. Top tier musicianship.
This is what REAL musicians look (and sound) like!!!!! Great reaction!
In the year 1970 Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Uriah Heep & Led Zeppelin changed my world (and taste) of music forever. I remember well after I discovered this four bands and their music in 1970 at the age of nine (thanks to my elder sister & cousins) all songs I've ever heard in the sixties were immediately oldies - but goldies (of course)!
I was nine in 1970, too. I had an older brother who introduced to all the great bands. One I listened to Black Sabbath, though, I became a metalhead for life. But I also remained a lifelong fan of Deep Purple and Led Zeppelin, as well.
Uriah Heep would make for a great reaction and Nazareth would too.
Me too, but a couple of years earlier and add Cream to the list.
Jethro tull wasn't too shabby,either. Locomotive breath.......
Ian Gillan is the male Karen Carpenter of Hard Rock/Heavy Metal.
His tone is so clear, his voice is so enchanting. He's without a doubt one of the greatest voice not just of Heavy Metal but in Rock overall.
Karen Carpenter, are you nuts? She never did anything like this, Try Janis Joplin if you must make comparisons.
@@CB-xr1eg
I was not refering to the style but the voice.
His voice for a male singer is as pure, tuneful and mesmerizing as Karen was for women.
@@davidmeir9348 I never really understood the fuss about Karen Carpenter, there were far better female singers, like Mama Cass or Judith Durham or Linda Ronstadt for instance.
@@CB-xr1eg
Even other singers will tell you that Carpenter had one of the best voice in pop-rock history.
She was something elss
@davidmeir9348 There is a youtuber who sounds EXACTLY like her. Tori Holub. Just ran across her account the other day. It's really extraordinary.
The audience in the studio was instructed to sit quietly during the performance.
I think so, but after the screaming 60s with reactions towards the earlier bands and audiences, there was this tendency for everyone to want to actually go and listen to music.
Sure, they are Germans, aren't they? "You must nicht enjoy yourselves zu much, or else sie will bestraffen sein!!!!".
That's because I it was a television broadcast.
Yes that was the BBC fir you!
This is why the recording is so good
That's the way people where back then when they knew they would be on TV and had to sit still and be respectful
No auto tune, What a voice.
The best screamer in all of rock!
Let's not forget Dio ;)
Every band member is a master of their craft.
This song is so good🥁💥🎸and Deep Purple is one of greatest rockband ever👍
Ian Gillian is one off the greatest vocalists of the era. You might also enjoy listening to him in the original album, Jesus Christ Superstar. This voicing in here is what got him that gig. The whole album is incredible. He has several really key moments. Gethsemane and The Temple. Not necessarily in that order. Amazing voice. He didn't go on the road show with Superstar because he was too busy with Deep Purple touring.
Space Truckin next would be just fine!!!!
MIJ
YES! 💯
@@pookiemartinez1745 Not the Made In Japan version, that's about 20 minutes long!
France 2005 version is awesome...
This is the improvisation the Deep Purple style...top musicians and not forgetting Gillan's vocals..
Perfect Strangers by Deep Purple
All of them are the definition of a perfect musician. They keep influencing decades
Five of the best musicians ever assembled!
Yes, Yes!! Made in Japan is in my opinion, is one of the greatest live albums of all time! If not the greatest live album! Captured this line-up of DP at their peak!! If you like Highway Star studio version! Wait till you hear the live version of Highway star, which is the opening track to the live album!
I agree, but another great live album is Alchemy Live - Dire Straits. If you haven't heard it give it a listen.
I agree that Made in Japan is the greatest live album ever. It was the second album i purchased. I have not stopped rocking 63 later.
Always in the top 5 of the TOP 2000 in the Netherlands every year around Christmas. The Radio NPO2 play all the 2000 songs 24/7
the rhythm section is rock solid - Ian Paice is a legend.
DP - are the father and mother of rock n roll ever!
Simply the GOAT rock anthem
Gillan used to ad-lib at the end of this track. The bit about trying to be with you three times was just random words plucked out of nowhere.
Yes, Gillan always came up with different lyrics for the ending of this song.
Unfortunately that ad-libbing on this version was to the songs detriment. Another reason I prefer the original to this version.
This performance was recorded on a television program in England, the audience was instructed to remain quiet. You should do a reaction to Strange Kind of Woman, from their Made in Japan album; it showcases Ian Gillan’s vocals, as well!!
"Smoke on the Water" from Made in Japan is so good, I think it's better than the studio version
Also a large part of the audience were Granada TV employees and their family and not deep purple fans.
@@rubroken If you heard Machine Head you'll note that all the songs from that album that they play on |Made In Japan have a lot more energy, and are slightly faster, with extended solos.
I don't know why no one has chosen to react to Strange Kind of Woman from MiJ so far. It shows not only Gillan's talent but also how the whole band could cooperate. It is simply fantastic how Ian and Richie reply to each other. It is one of my favourites.
Deep Purple formed in Hertfordshire England in March 1968.
Even better than Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven." This one has a lot of intricacies.
Greatest band ever!!!! Made in Japan is the greatest live album ever released!!!
This performance becomes even more special when you understand the limitations of the sound equipment at the time. It was very, very difficult to make a song that combines soft and hard sections sound good. That is why many bands would divide their playlist into "acoustic" and "electric" sets.
Oh yeah, Lazy is a really fun roller coaster ride. It's back-to-back on that iconic Machine Head album with another fan favorite, Space Truckin.
brilliant British rock band
In my opinion Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple are the G.O.A.T's of Hard Rock😊❤
Jon Lord, Rick Wakeman and Keith Emerson, my 3 favourite keyboard Gods. I was lucky enough to see them all perform live way back in the last millenium.
It's the 50TH Anniversary of Deep Purple's foundation album MACHINE HEAD.
The album includes the ubiquitous classic song Smoke On The Water, which, of course, is about the infamous fire at a Frank Zappa & The Mother concert.
Here's the cool news: Zappa's son Dweezil, a gifted musician and guitarists in his own right, has himself remastered the entire album at it has recently been released as a 50 YEAR ANNIVERSARY set, with Dolby ATMOS surround sound vinyl & CD that allows the listener better hear nuances and power, especially of the keyboards and vocals, that were buried or muddy in the original.🤘🔥
Here's the bad news, it costs over £100.😮
Perfect Strangers is a great song video from them
Even Pavarotti was a fan of Ian Gillan! A masterpiece!
Progressive rock at its best
Man. I wish I had a time machine so I could slip into that room and watch this performance live. One of the best rock songs ever written IMHO.
no autotune my friends ,Gillian Richmore what a legends
This is why I saw Deep Purple twice in the 70s.
Ian Gillan, is one of the rarest gem, it's not just the range the way he delivers and expresses is outstanding he got an amazing tone
Ian Gillan is INSANE
So lucky that this was captured. One of the most incredible displays of musicianship and emotion through music.
no autotune there...just pure talent
It's the same every time someone sees this live version for the first time: This is a recording for TV. The technology was nowhere near as sophisticated as it is today. The listeners were told to be quiet and not to disturb the recording.
It's also a great example of how the musicians of the '60s, '70s and '80s were, in large numbers, much more creative than those who came after. Yes, there are exceptions lke Nightwish, Saltatio Mortis, Feuerschwanz, Faun etc, but all in all only in very small numbers...
Lazy live has to be next! Thanks for great reaction! 👍 😊
YES!
"Made In Japan" has the reputation of being one of the greatest live albums in history and it is highly deserved. Incredible performances and a high quality production and recording. Superb album so anything off it is worthy.
Actually they wanted Made in Japan to be released only in Japan but when they were told that the album performed very well in the USA (played by the Radio stations)then their hesitation was gone.
Not one of the Greatest Live Albums. Made In Japan is the measure of what a Live Album should be. It is the Greatest Live Album.
@@harrypolychronopoulos478 Yes, correct. I have a Japanese pressing of it that is called "Live In Japan" because obviously, the LP is 'made in Japan'.....everywhere else it's titled "Made In Japan ".
@@stevemurrell6167 Thanks for the information, it's the first time I heard about that.
Thanks again.
Everybody reacting ti the usual tunes, especially this Child in time version but Deep Purple are much more than these few tunes... outside Usa they are close to Zeppelin fame and bigger than Sabbath.
Brilliant musicians with genius level performance.
Child in Time, heard it when I was 15 50 years ago, its amazing! He sang with pavorti on stage who is a opera singer, he loved him as well! Incredible vocals!
First time I heard this song changed my appreciation of music for ever. I was 10 years old, sat in my brothers room. It was dark and he played me this song. I will never forget!! So my dvice is to listen to the original studio version in i calm and dark room. It will shift your soul.
Shocking that they only got inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame in 2016
Only ppl in the usa give a damn about that little clique. Trust me, here in Britain we laugh at stuff like that. I mean is it a big corridor full of busts. Anything you get 'inducted' into is something to stay well aware from.
130 million lps. 1973 biggest band in the world in gate receipts and lps sold. Also repeated it in 1984 they were tge worlds top band again.
This is from some television broadcast. The audience does not have to be there just for Deep Purple. Remember, in 1970 this music was new and probably, at least to some extent, and some ears, a bit extreme.
So good!!
The venue was Granada studio's (Manchester...September 1970) I was a 12yr old boy and part of the Audience with my dad. I can't remember the Actual date. We had to sit and watch and be quiet while purple performed. According to Gillan the song child in time was about a guy who was a loser who came third in a Duel and lost everything ,eventually blew his mind out. But this song became popular as a anti war song mainly the Cold war.
All the best Deep Purple stuff is live. The studio albums are great but they always went completely nuts live.
Terrifying & fantastic time when music flowed back then....✌️☮️
Ian Paice is from my home town of Nottingham, fantastic drummer, 👏 another great commercial tune of there's is "Black Night "
Jon Lord (RIP) was born in my home town of Leicester
Great reaction, Sam and Phil! One of the great songs of my youth (even though I didn't realize it at the time). Lazy and My Woman from Tokyo are great songs. One of their very early songs is Hush.
"... I've tried to be with you three times ..." was a spontaneous live addition - won't find it on the studio version.
Thank goodness for that!
So fun watching you straight laced ppl reacting to cool music.
This is the definitive version without a doubt. As perfect a live performance as I can think of, also the definitive Deep Purple lineup, each one of the band best in class. The audience were told to stay quiet for the recording. The song was about the Vietnam war.
A great tune from Deep Purple. Child In Time was a cold war theme song.
Gillan has admitted “Child In Time” is based on American band It’s A Beautiful Day’s 1969 psychedelic rock piece Bombay Calling. Though faster paced and violin driven, Deep Purple borrowed a substantial part of the arrangement as the basis for Lord and Blackmore’s instrumental riffs and solos.
I love "It's a Beautiful Day's" first album. I didn't know that Child in Time borrowed from Bombay......thanks for that info!
I loved "It's a Beautiful Day". I saw them a few times live and Bombay Calling, White Bird and Girl With No Eyes are great. Actually all 7 songs are great but it's hard to recommend the entire album for review. I will say though, that if you listen to the whole album I will place a bet you get a copy of it for you collection.
It was actually anti cold war song
It's all about the cold war,
And rather than sue, IABD used riffs from DP's "Hard Road" on their next album.
Saw them five times after they reunited in 1984
Me too
Ian Paice was just a pup here on the drums. He is one of the Greatest Drummers of that Era or any Era Magnificent!
One hell of a performance 🎭 it can’t get much if any better than that ? 😮😮❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Master Musicians!
This is a vocal and instrumental masterpiece. Way ahead of its time. Awesome.
Deep Purple Made in Japan is probably the finest live album ever recorded.
Good reaction thank you.
Audience was quiet, because they were asked to, in order to not interfere with the recording, as you had appreciated, it was a high quality one.
Please react to Deep Purple live recordings, because they sounded so much better than in the studio.
You mentioned LAZY, that's a gem and I recommend you to react to the MADE IN JAPAN version, it's the best.
MADE IN JAPAN is a live double album recorded in 1972, containing only 7 songs on 2 LPs.
It's a milestone in hard rock history and maybe the Best Hard Rock Live album ever.
It has no overdubs, no makeups, no nothing, you will listen what the band played on the stage.
Back then audiences were told to be still and not make noise when on TV.
and still beter than today's music
One thing about Jon Lord specifically when I saw DP live.... Jon literally tipped his organ on an angle. It never fell over, but he was playing with one hand and tipping it with the other. Fn' crazy and cool.
This is what I miss the MOST about the late 60s/early 70s.....this was so typical of going to a live concert.....look at the crowd....listen to the singer SINGING....listen to the instruments...oh man
Proper music, proper musicians, proper song writing, proper performance, properly innovative and ambitious, properly great music from a properly great period of music.
This is a masterpiece
Excellent reaction one of the all time greatest later friends.❤️😎🇺🇸
The first time I heard Deep Purple was in 1968 with their hit 'Hush'. So ahead of their time. I like the intro of the howling wolf. Great sound.
I had the pleasure of having for an evening with my band NEVER BEFORE DEEP PURPLE TRIBUTE BAND: OFFICIAL TRIBUTE BAND DEEP PURPLE. MISTER IAN PAICE. DEEP PURPLE A WORLD WONDER
I think you need to checkout a band from this time period of the early 70s by the name Uriah heep and the song Salisbury. You probably won't get a lot of requests for this but they are a great band that are overlooked. If you choose to react to this band I would like to ask not do any research before you listen to it a total blind reaction you will not be disappointed. The song is long around 16 minutes but well worth the time.
