A most excellent song and reaction!
I'm British and I've never seen them !! Very jealous ๐ That was Jon Lord at the end (keyboardist) - very nice guy by all accounts and sadly missed by many. My one suggestion to you is maybe you might want to include another famous Purple song but this time sung by their next lead singer David Coverdale who went on to form 'Whitesnake' who in my opinion deserve to be in the classics section by themselves. The song is 'Burn' (which includes another purple song briefly in the middle- 'Stormbringer') - both of these co-written by Coverdale and Blackmore. I of course have a vested interest as I was at this wonderful Whitesnake concert - it was fire - they opened the gig with 'Burn/Stormbringer - my Brothers and I nearly missed it - got a bit too fond of pre-gig drinks ahem!! I'm going to find the link - obviously, if you can't include it, I hope you find the time to watch it privately as Jon Lord was keyboardist for Whitesnake in the early days - so it's legit Deep Purple basically. Plus, the picture and sound of course is superior. If you remember the Dio live song I recommended that you kindly reacted to(I was also there) you'll recognise the same wonderful guitarist Doug Aldrich. Enjoy - You know I never let you down ๐ ๐. This whole concert was fire. Even if you only watch it for the Tommy Aldridge drum solo - he uses his hands only for one section! Sorry, as usual - far too much, I'm getting far too enthusiastic from my sick bed ๐ Take good care of yourselves. David https://youtu.be/wAydlI2fOjs?si=z8x1_7LRkx82L9ae NB. Drum solo isn't in this number. Sorry to be misleading ๐ณ ๐
I commented on youtube. Great reaction to a classic. Hope you enjoy the journey.
