"That sound" is the great Jon Lord (R.I.P.) playing a Hammond C-3 organ plugged directly into a Marshall amp. Deep Purple was one of the 3 main British hard rock/pre-metal bands (along with Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin). This is an early track from their original line up (Mark I). Guitarist Ritchie Blackmore soon after replaced the lead singer with Ian Gillan and the bass player with Roger Glover - the most iconic line up of the band (Mark II), which you reacted to on their classic Smoke On The Water. So many great songs, suggest you try Lazy, Highway Star, Child In Time, or Burn next.

I'm a keyboard player, and started back in the mid-60s (I'm 70 now), knowing piano and learning organ. I really, really, really wanted a Hammond B3! THAT was the ultimate organ, with a Leslie tone cabinet. Those had one speaker facing up, and a big 15" speaker facing down. When you'd push a button on the floor pedal, a big fabric drum would start rotating around the lower speaker, and a couple of plastic horns would spin around the upper speaker. When you hear an organ have a steady note, then it quickly ramp up into a warbling "vibrato," that's the Leslie. When "Hush" came out on the AM "Top 40" radio, back then, I was blown away and HAD to learn how to play like that! That organ solo is one of the iconic solos, and that weird sound or noise you hear toward the end of the solo, we used to call "chop" organ. It's done by having both hands play the same cord, like playing hand drums on a coffee table, only on the keys. Each hand is overlaying the exact same chord, back and forth. With the two hands, you can get really fast, and it combines almost into a drum sound, with the organ sound. In some ways, it's like Larry Graham inventing the "slap bass," to include a "drum" while playing. You'd be impressed with "Release Yourself," by Larry Graham (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eb-Unayq3tfSkp8.html), which showcases that "slap." Same with the B3 -- I learned how to make that fast percussion "slap" on the organ from Jon Lord. Then Emerson, Lake & Palmer came out and I realized I had limits. :-) "Tarkus" on the Tarkus album is kind of impossible to play (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jbF-gs912cDQpYk.html). I'm having a blast watching you two reacting to "ancient" music. LOL! Good job!

The answer to Jay question of "what was that?" It was Jon Lord on the Hammond organ. It was NOT screeching guitar - It was Jon on Hammond. Jon was revolutionary. When you were noting the "drums", you weren't aware that part of that percussion was the Hammond organ keys being "chopped" by Jon using the click/percussion settings on the organ. That lead with the rapid percussion at the end was all JON LORD. Jon was the reason I wanted to learn to play the organ. He was a visionary-running his Hammond through both the traditional rotating Leslie cabinet and a specially wired screaming distorted Marshall amp - just like the lead guitar players used! He also, well before MIDI allowed keyboards to be connected, had an RMI electric piano wired into the bottom keyboard of his Hammond so that he could play both organ and electric piano sounds at the same time. He made Deep Purple a unique power house rock band. RIP Jon.

Yup! That is the mastery of Jon Lord over a Hammond B3 organ with dual Leslie cabinets. Each Leslie featured a tube amp (probably hot rodded to increase drive levels[crunch] into speakers with rotating horns/baffles on electric motors to induce a doppler effect to the sound. Usually bass is "non directional", but these woofers fire down into a baffle which directs the sound out in a 360 degree direction as the baffle spins - being heavier, it changes speed slower than the hf horn making it fool your ear even better! This effect was used VERY SURPRISINGLY on a guitar on the Pointer Sister's single "slow hand" to make a sound so unique that Conway Twitty made a cover version. Both are excellent.

This is a cover as mentioned but being Australian and knowing there is a version by Somebody's Image (Russell Morris) you should hear that version I think it's better. Most of Russell Morris's songs are classic Australian sings like wings of an eagle, sweet sweet love and the real thing

YES! I just posted that this is my favourite Purple song, though my fave version of this song in particular has always been Russ's... oh and Russ's band did their cover the year before Purple did theirs.

Oh my, I miss the electric organ in music. A unique character in the cast, no other instrument sounds like it. I hope for a renaissance for this inherently sassy instrument.
@gregsager20622 жыл бұрын
Not just the electric organ, the Hammond B-3. There's no mistaking the power and depth of a Hammond B-3 ... and Jon Lord of Deep Purple, who was the first organist to feed his B-3's sound through a stack of Marshall amps like a guitarist, was among its masters.

We're way ahead of you! You really have to check out some of the younger retro acts of today, they're awesome! Hällas from Sweden, Blood Ceremony from Canada, Saffire from Sweden and Bigelf from the US (OK, the latter have been at it since the early 2000s, but still!) are all absolutely superb bands keeping the flame of traditional, heavy rock with organ aplenty alive. Each with their own individual style, too. Go KZfaq browsing, you will NOT be disappointed.

@@erikthompson619 Ooo, thank you for the recs! I'm always interested in finding new veins of music. I've been exploring the heavy trad pagan rock scene in Europe - man, I wish we had that here. I get very jealous watching those crowds, LOL. Thanks again.

I would think that “Highway Star” would be an outstanding follow up to this. There is a video of them with it and you can see Jon Lords mastery of the keyboards as well as Ritchie Blackmore

What a great song. You've done this and "Smoke on the Water", probably their two most recognizable songs. You'll also love "Strange Kind of Woman", "Black Night", "Fireball", and "Woman From Tokyo". Great early 70s jams. Thanks for reacting!

The man who wrote this song stepped out of his regular style of music. The writer was Billy Joel and he wrote this song with Deep Purple in mind. One phone call to Deep Purple and the song was theirs. Love the show folks. Take care. Vaughn

Deep Purple was around late 60s to mid 70s. Think they got back together in mid 80s with some of the old members. This song was definitely from late 60s because I remember it from high school and I graduated in 1970. I was a Navy brat flower child hippie chick! Thanks for always making me smile ✌❤

The Hammond B3 organ was an integral part of 60's and 70's rock bands which gives listeners the telltale giveaway of the eras.

This was all the way back in 1968 with their original lead singer Rod Evans. At this early stage in their career, they were a Psychedelic Hard Rock band and didn't become a Heavy Metal band until 1970 with their album _In Rock_ with their second lead singer, Ian Gillan. That's who sang on the vast majority of their big hits.

Besides having Ritchie Blackmore on guitar,Jon Lord's Hammond organ pumped though a Marshall amp stack was Deep Purple's secret weapon. He essentially took a church instrument and brought it to the forefront,giving the band a unique sound that set them apart from all other bands of the time.
