(It used to be available on YouTube, but it has been removed due to terms of use violation) |

The Glenn Hughes era is pretty fantastic too.

Heck, they made me a musician, and that's no lie.
And I'm only 17

| | | | Deep Purple probably did everything musically that any heavy band has done since. Talk about one MONSTER of a band! Glover and Hughes are great bassists. Gillan and Coverdale and Hughes are great vocalists. Of course Blackmore, Paice, and Lords are great as well. If you don't like "Speed King", "Space Truckin'", "Smoke On the Water", "Child in Time", "Stormbringer", etc, you are likely a big ass loser. You shouldn't even play heavy stuff if you don't. |

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Aug 2002 Location: Ankh-Morpork | | Funny thing about Smoke on the Water.... Blackmore HATED playing rhythm guitar (most of the riffing in DP is Lord's organ, with Blackmore just hanging out on stage or playing one-note stuff) and he comes up with one of the most famous riffs in guitar history...... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILDxii_1H-g another clip, from the California Jam in 1974...... at the end, Lord turns on the effects, tips the organ up on two legs, and lets it drop.....
Incidentally... I had the Cal Jam cd since I was in college and only this week found out they filmed it......

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Jan 2008 Location: Orange County, CA | | | Deep Purple will most definitely go down as one of the best rock bands of all time. Too bad there really isn't any band that can step into their shoes. (Dumb statement I know. No one can expect to do that. But, it's a rhetorical kind of thing ya know?)
Glover is a brilliant bass player, and Glenn Hughes is amazing too.
Love both of these guys for being such fantastic musicians.

it's basically the amps from this setup about which I'm wondering... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6x8GGXrCFQ
