In Purple, every player is pretty much the best player ever.

It's so cool to see young people rocking out to the music I listened to back in those long-gone days.

Saw Deep Purple live in 1972 ELF was touring with them at that time. Great concert.

I seen Deep Purple on the Perfect Stranger's tour, mid eighties. And i seen Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow band in the late seventies on the Down to Earth tour. Amazing! 🙂

I have seen them multiple times. Best live rock band of all time, regardless of line-up.

Jon Lord...God of the keys!! More than anyone else, he made the keyboards cool. RIP...

Jon Lord, the undisputed KING of the Hammond B3 organ.

Hand shaking is Millie's indication of excitement 😉

I was not there but saw them within a couple weeks of this show at a big outdoor concert in Hartford CT. Aerosmith was second on the bill, ripping through their first 2 albums and the biggest surprise was the appearance of Ronnie James Dio and Elf as the opener. You could see he was a talent and wondered what was next for him (for me, more Ronnie, I saw him 3 times in Rainbow and 4 times with Black Sabbath, I now feel very fortunate considering what people think of him now). For another great Deep Purple tune from the show you just saw (California Jam 1974), try You Fool No One, John Lord on organ and Ritchie Blackmore on guitar are immense and have powerful solos. Well worth checking out, Ritchie at his best, enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎶

This is the David Coverdale (Later to form Whitesnake) and Glenn Hughes lineup of the band.. they were amazing!! Check out "Mistreated" from this same show! David puts his soul into the vocals! kzfaq.info/get/bejne/q6t2dst-yZ6RZ4k.html

There is another great performance in this same festival called California Jam, in 1974. Emerson, Lake and Palmer playing "Karn Evil 9 1st Impression part 2" with a huge wild drum solo by Carl Palmer

Nice to see you getting into Deep Purple 💜! You should see if you can find any of their merch! You sound like an official fan! Rock on, Millie! 💟

I saw Glenn Hughes a few years ago. His voice is virtually unchanged. Miyako from Lovebites has covered this on piano on her recently released covers EP….a reaction from you would be cool. PS, I love your theme song…so 60’s.

This is the mk3 lineup. Child in time was the “classic” mk2 lineup. Deep purple was a revolving door of band members. Mk2 was Gillan on vocals, Glover on bass with Blackmore on guitar, Lord on keyboards and Paice on drums. Mk3 was Coverdale on vocals, Hughes on bass with Lord, Blackmore and Paice. Look up Blackmores band Rainbow and you’ll see some more fantastic keyboard players.

Millie great rection, thanks! I'm a huge fan of Glenn Hughes, here Glenn was only 22, now he's 72 and still sings and performs phenomenally. React to something else from him, maybe his live version "Whiter shade of pale"? The lead singer of Deep Purple here is David Coverdale, you're right, David has a blues voice, it's worth listening to his acoustic performances from Japan in the nineties, for example "Solider of fortune", David has a unique voice.

Apparently, I got taken to see Deep Purple when I was little, right around this time. I don't remember much of the show. Got to see them again around 2008. This one I do remember. Fantastic show. Amd while some would rank Rick Wakeman at the tops for rock keyboard, I give that rank to Jon Lord. The man was phenomenal. His sound was so distinctive. Ian Paice on drums was my main influence to become a drummer.

Always love your reactions. You have so much enthusiasm and are able to project that so well. Deep Purple was a band with lots of fun party music. Keep discovering fun music, and have a great time being the incomparable Millie. 😍

About 400k people there. 200k paid the other 200k crashed the gate. This is Deep Purple Coverdale and Hughs are new nembers. 1973 biggest band in the world in gate receipts and lps sold. Rip Jon Douglas Lord keyboards.

Jon Lord' was the best keyboard player ever for sure, and a helluva musician with a fantastic diverse range of memorable music. Probably my favourite musician overall. Sadly missed.

Omg , in 1974 I was an 8 yr old stud to be lol. I remember the threads and the music. Back in the day where they plugged in the instruments and mics. The energy and passion in the performance is not seen today.I could feel Bass in the pit of my stomach thumping away. Gotta love the white suit, black platforms and hair. lol

A thousand times thank you Millie for your journey into my youth when I came to metal.😍😍😘😘🥰🥰

The vocalist here is David Coverdale who later was the lead vocalist in Whitesnake , previous to Mr Coverdale was Ian Gillan who later rejoined the band and is still today touring with Deep Purple

I was there.April 1974 California Jam.Ontario motor speedway. 300,000 of us there, 10 bands in this concert, Started at 10 Am ended 10 PM. ELP finished it. I got sunburned bad.Smoked a lot of herb.

Another banging performance by Deep Purple from this same concert Mistreated incredible live music ✌🏻

i know a few purple songs, i also know coverdale from "whitesnake" ,but man..this base guy has a voice!!! holy moly

My first time in a Deep Purple show was at 1991, Sao Paulo, Brazil. The vocalist was Ian Gillan, Steve Morse was on guitars. Epic show! I love your reacts, Millie. Sorry about my English, I'm brazilian

Gotta listen to the studio version too

This was the 3rd line up of Deep Purple with Glen Hughes after Ian Gillan left

Your reactions are epic ! Saw David in May last year with his band Whitesnake they were awesome ! xx

Millie rocking out ! 🎸 Deep Purple were Heavy Metal 💪

Jon Lord can easily be said to be one of the best ever. You would also want to look into Rick Wakeman of Yes and Keith Emerson of ELP. The replaced origianal vocalist Ian Gillian with two voices: David Coverdale (Whitesnake) and Glenn Hughes.

Great reaction to one of the greatest bands ever! If you want to react to more DP, here are some suggestions: "Perfect Strangers" (I recommend the official music video); "Knocking at your back door"; "Strange kind of woman"; "Wasted sunsets". Keep on rocking, Millie! 🎸🎼😉👍

Caifornia Jam which was simulcast. I watched it live on TV and listened to it over the stereo.

Great, that you love the vocals of Glenn Hughes..., I love him too... 🎶👍✨♥️

I was at a 1983 concert where all the old 'band got together", and it was pretty cool. But they turned the sound up so high (no, not up to eleven), which made it very hard to differentiate between a 'wall of sound' and serious orchestral brilliance. My ears were ringing three days later. And so, a few days ago, I met someone who was a sound engineer on AC/DC concerts back then, and he said this was just marketing, as no one could ever listen to that sort of decibel level for long before they'd be deaf to all the nuances in even the cheapest pub band location.

Jon Lord used to rock that organ back and forth and I kept thinking he was going to knock it over when I saw them live.

Awesome can't go roung with Deep purple. Thanks for the flashback. Hugs from 🇮🇹🇧🇪🤘💖

いい選曲だね。リッチーは沢山の素晴らしいシンガーを発掘した。

yes you're right different singer and also the bass player is different... jan ghilan and roger glover left the band and for some albums deep purple played with david coverdale on vocals and glenn huges on bass...

I saw Deep Purple headlining Monster Of Rock in Germany in 1987, damn that was a great concert. Helloween, Cinderella, Ratt, Dio, Metallica and Deep Purple.

My band favorite.Glenn hughes & Rata Blanca- Burn in buenos aires ARGENTINA.🎼🎵🎶🥁🎸

Oh yeah , these guys rock , last time I saw them was Tacoma dome in like 85 or so, they did three oncores and had not played smoke on the water yet. I was not leaving until smoke on the water was played lol. lights came on looked like it was over then DUN DUN DUNT!!! OH yeah . great show .

Just SAW GLENN HUGHES LAST NIGHT CELEBRATING THIS ALBUM BURN! AWESOME AMAZING STILL GOING STRONG!

Saw em the first time in 73 in Tampa, and several times after in Atlanta.

Great song did you have to look at the song Lazy by Deep Purple 1972 live in Copenhagen it is amazing you have to play it the original cast members all of them are the best in the business it'll blow your mind

This was a festival called. California Jam, April 6, 1974, I was there with my dad he was the sound engineer for Rare Earth. I was 12. It was crazy.. The stuff I seen backstage would make Caligula blush.😮👉🤯👈🥳🤪😱☠️💥 The line up was Rare Earth, Earth Wind and Fire, the Eagles (with Jackson Browne sitting in for Bernie Leadon), Seals and Crofts, Black Oak Arkansas, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and Emerson, Lake and Palmer.

I was there. Many great bands that day. Cal Jam '74

The last years of Ritchie's dominance in the band when he did what he wanted) Coverdale and Hughes are singing, and Ian Gillan left the band for a while then, they say that he really doesn't like this song

My favourite live performance bar none.

This was a great Deep Purple's Line Up with David Coverdale on vocals and Glenn Hughes on bass who was doing vocals too

If you liked David Coverdale singing Burn you need to checkout another banger from this same concert called Mistreated !! ✌🏻

5:46 is one of my absolute favourite musical moments of all time 🤟👹❤

Back then gigs were gigs, no fancy light show no explosion. just rare. talent, no auto-tunning no voice modulators.

Yes, this was vocalist David Coverdale fronting Deep Purple from 1974 - '76 w/ co-vocalist/bassist Glenn Hughes... They replaced vocalist Ian Gillan and bassist Roger Glover (Gillan quit... Glover was replaced at guitarist Ritchie Blackmore's orders). David Coverdale formed the band Whitesnake in the late 70's and they became a huge commercial success in the 80's and beyond... Whitesnake actually performed 'Burn' in concert and re-recorded some of Coverdale's Deep Purple tracks as 'The Purple album' in memory of late keyboardist Jon Lord (who played in Whitesnake for a few years before Deep Purple reunited in 1984). Ritchie Blackmore (guitar) is an iconic musician, but he was often unpredictable and hard to please... and his volatility pushed vocalist Ian Gillan out of the band by 1973... Blackmore himself was planning to quit, but Purple's managers convinced him to stay; he agreed to, only if Roger Glover was fired... What was strange was that Blackmore hired Roger Glover for his band Rainbow in the 70's and early 80's. Deep Purple in 1973 had 4 albums on the US charts and were taking off around the world, so breaking up the band made little sense. Hiring Glenn Hughes on bass from the UK band Trapeze, an unknown singer David Coverdale was picked for Deep Purple... Ritchie Blackmore seemed inspired again and put some of his best playing into the 1974 album 'Burn' ... and it was a huge hit. Deep Purple were touring in a jet and making million$ on tour. But for some reason, Blackmore did not enjoy playing w/ the band's new line-up and took issue w/ Glenn Hughes' 'funk' style of playing bass... The band wrote and recorded the next album 'Stormbringer' in 1974, but Blackmore was not into that record... he was already writing for a solo project and left Deep Purple in 1975 to form the band Rainbow w/ vocalist Ronnie James Dio. Glenn Hughes said that in hindsight, replacing Ritchie Blackmore was a mistake... "You couldn't replace Jimmy Page in Led Zeppelin... that was unthinkable..." But ex-James Gang guitarist Tommy Bolin was hired by Deep Purple and recorded the album 'Come taste the band' in 1975... However, Purple fans did not like the new guitarist or the new music. After a series of tour mishaps... Hughes and Bolin also had serious drug problems on tour as well... Deep Purple split up in 1976. Tommy Bolin passed away soon after from an OD.

Jon Lord used Hammond organ through Marshall amplifie,Hammond-Leslie sound through Marshall amplification , Harmmon C3 Organ

seen them in 1984

Same gig try --You Fool No One-----starts with great keyboard solo.

You give me hope for our world! 🤘 Thank you My old guy biased worldview says that if enough people from everywhere and everywhen dive deep enough and learn enough of this solid core of ROCK we may, somehow, survive as a species... So, no pressure on you. Just the future of humanity. That's all. Rock On Millie! Cheers rl 🤘👹🤘

Great reaction Millie. Thanks for the joy.

Child in Time : Roger Glover/Bass Burn : Glen Hughes/Bass/Vocals.......

Didn't see it live, but was allowed to stay up late and watch it live on television...

I love your reactions when we talk about my favorite band. 🎶🤘 Deep Purple has had many members; you are correct in saying that this singer is different from before. 🎤 You remind me of my nephew's son when you shake your hands like you do. 👶👐 This is adorable, pure enjoyment to see. 😍 Sending love and peace. ✌❤

I wasn't there but I saw it on Live TV. ABC, Channel 7. I know a few people who saw it live as well, back in 1974.

saw purple twice in the 70s mk2 in 1972 mk3 in 1974 both gigs were awesome

The "second" vocalist is the bass player Glenn Hughes, aka The Voice of Rock, the White Stevie Wonder. Yes, he did a bunch of stuff with Rata Blanca. A reaction to one of his videos is in order :-)..... I'd recommend Live: Glenn Hughes - 1994-05-24 - From Now On - Citta Club, Kawasaki, Japan kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fM-Zq9GBu5i6eas.html Studio/Official video - Glenn Hughes - Why Don't You Stay - (Official Video) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Y72Ehcur3K7Ue3k.html

Yeah, That's a young David Coverdale of Whitesnake If you like blues , check out their song "Mistreated" 👍

I saw them live at the Cow Palace for their Perfect Strangers tour. This band is exponentially better live!

Millie This lineup of Deep Purple disbanded in 1976. David Coverdale (singer, not bassist) founded his own band, Whitesnake. Coverdale at 71 retired from touring after Whitesnake's last tour because of health problems.

I was at this concert!! Still got my ticket stub....I preferred Ian Gillian as deep purples lead singer, but Coverdale rocked this song out! What a concert though....300,000 strong!! My ears are still ringing!!

I think Millie would be fascinated by the whole Deep Purple story; especially Ian Gillan leaving and being replaced by David Coverdale (and Glenn Hughes)

This song is fantastic ! This is my best deep purple Line up! David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes are incredible 🙏

Bass player is absolutely kicking ass!!!

Millie, How about some feed-back??? I do not recall if this song has it. But they do use that Hammond classic ROCK organ. Their biggest song was "Smoke on the Water". AND "My Woman from Tokyo", Burn, and Hush. May I suggest you locate them and give them a listen. Especially Smoke on the Water....

Well it shows how old I am I was at that concert in 1974

I love youre reactions, espero que sigas reaccionando a temas clásicos del rock, saludos

The BEST VERSION OF BURN EVER❤

In Rock N' Roll . . . Play something easy, make it look hard ~ Play something hard, make it look easy (I was there)

As the world turns to crap before my very eyes, I feel very privileged to have experienced the music of the 60's through to the 90's in real time. It has passed and will never be repeated.

So.many hits

Not there, but very much alive and kickin' at the time in London. Great era of music. The bass playing is epic on this. Glenn Hughes, I think.

This line up was just brilliant. Ritchie Blackmore and Jon Lord are in my fav musicians band along with Bonham, Plant, and Geezer Butler. I saw Deep Purple in the 70's (can't remember when exactly) at Wembley Arena, but unfortunately it was the late Tommy Bolin tour, and it wasn't great.

I was at this concert.

Great video! It`s a very nice song and a very nice band

Check out the song Mistreated from this same concert. Epic.

I had the pleasure to see and meet Glenn Hughes a couple of months ago, he’s still can sing exactly like he did then . Great guy although

Deep Purple - Black Night (ao vivo 1972)

Deep Purple has the most iconic riff for a guitar. Use to be 99% of people knew this riff. The song is Smoke on the Water. Think you review it. Just for the riff.

Oh my lord ..their best song ever!!!

very nice and very good I see I feel that you know how to recognize real music

David Coverdale pre whitesnake wow!! 👍

Jin Lord was an incredible on the Keyboard

Burn❤❤❤❤ Glenn Hughes ❤❤

The singer David Coverdales 2nd gig, in front of 300,000 people!

Great reaction. Check Mistreated in the same concert.

I think he (Jon Lord) was one of the best keyboardist ever. I would have to include Rick Wakeman in that group. Check out "Rick Wakeman's Keyboard Solo". I think you would add him to your list.

Saw rory Gallagher as opening act at one of them.epic Fleetwood Mac on same ticket oddly enough

If you want to hear more of the bluesy side of lead singer david coverdale check out “Ain't no love in the heart of the city" by Whitesnake. With the usual suspects Ian Paice and Jon Lord from D. P. They made a very good live recording !

If I can throw another artist out there, if you haven't listened to Dan Vasc you need to hear his rendition of Amazing Grace. Dan is a metal singer from Brazil. It's not what you would expect, I think you will be blown away!

"Rhapsody of Fire" Vale a pena dar uma conferida

Millie, Why don't you try Ten Years After at Woodstock, "I'm Going Home" I think you'll like it. Best wishes from Florida.
