  • sad to say it, but gillan has lost his classic voice. And Airey is good, but it just isnt the same without lord.

  • la introduccion es excelente

  • Don Airey rocks!

  • best hard rock solos!!! great Steve and Great Airey!!!

  • I'm a huge Purple from from over 30 years ago, but I listened to this without watching it at first, and the band are great, but Gillan, bless him, just sounds like an old past-it pub singer on this, just shouldn't have done this song.... Such a shame..

  • ฺBest new arrange.

  • Good Band^^

  • Except the voice, this is spectacular...

  • they sound about as good here as they did 40 years ago... I`m finding that Gillan's voice is different but just as good if not better... Also he has boo coo experience as the front man. It shows. LOVE the drumming too

  • DAmn this is great!! to bad Gillan can't sing like in the seventies. But Paice, Glover, Morse and Airey has to be some of the best musicians there is :)

  • fake

  • 1:10 The Yardbirds!!!!!!!!!

  • 0:19-0:22 it's similar in "sultan of swing

  • I'm going to see them live at this years Jazz Festival :) Can't wait!

    Also Highway Star became one of my favorite songs since they opened the first concert I got to see them with it. It just gets you pumped right away when you hear it roar live!

  • helluva bassist

  • Love Gillan but Glen Hughes is still the best , better than ever and always will be the voice of Rock and Roll

  • As much as it pains me to say it I think its about time they replaced Gillan. He just hasn't got the voice anymore. Dont know who they'd get to replace him though. Perhaps they could persuade Coverdale to come back because his voice is still not too bad ;-)

    Edit; Ian Paice is either pregnant or looks like he need to loose some weight!!!!!

  • @800764 Jesus Christ man ,, I guess they should have replaced Robert Plant during the reunion tour too..

  • As much as it pains me to say it I think its about time they replaced Gillan. He just hasn't got the voice anymore. Dont know who they'd get to replace him though. Perhaps they could persuade Coverdale to come back because his voice is still not too bad ;-)

  • can't wait for the new album!!!!!!!

  • Ill never know how the hell Steve Manages to play like he plays using his guitar sooo low, I use my guitar almost to my neck and still need to practice for like an hour to play at his speed without making any mistakes, and he makes it look so damm easy.

  • Yheaaaaaaaaaa

  • for ronald steger , best song .

  • best guitar sound ever

  • best intro ever!

  • very well done!!!

  • apik tenan deep purple kui, you know that

  • Very very good

  • Steve is a great guitar player, but he is not Blackmore, Deep purple sounds different but it´s good anyway

  • IAN is 60 plus on this video,his voice is weaker here but that is understandable,isn't it ?i rather see IAN struggles to hit high notes than to listen to other singer for DEEP PURPLE!

  • JUST GREAT.

  • dammit! i'm worried about gillan's voice. looks increasingly weak. it's the age

    but i steel love watching him.

  • @tilipens yeah you're right.i just watched their show.i mean its natural his voice is going with age.i think if you're gonna watch deep purple you cant expect a great vocal. But the music is still awesome.the others havent lost their touch.

  • This intro is amazing!!!!!!

  • the singing is awful

  • @ooglizer I agree, but look how ripped roger is compared to the other original members.

  • i love this guitar, every thing is better then the bad stratocater that blackmor have, musicman is one of the best guitars i ever playd and steave morse is have much more soul then blackmore, even if blackmore have more technik

  • In my opinion, it's the exact contrary

  • Steve Morse needs to ditch that sceechy guitar and pick up a Strat! The guitar sounds like shit.

  • a lot of people talking crap about Gillan at 6:96, i my particular it made me laugh, when sang like a retardad and the like chiken, he´s just having fun and ti´s nice to see a band enjoying themselves on the stage. Of course we all miss Blackmore, but if you check the "NEC 1993" DVD out, you will see how Blackmore had some vey shitty attitudes, so in spite of loving hum, i prefer this line-up.

  • I would never deny Blackmore's position as an important part of DP. At the same time I have to agree Morse is an excellent alternative. I would never say Morse "replaced" Blackmore. They are 2 completely different guitarists. But the chemistry between Morse and Glover is awesome.

    I think the MkVIIi lineup is a very mature sounding band. Perhaps not as good as some of the earlier Marks. But it is one I enjoy at my old age (and their's)

  • Not Gillan's best night, but the man is over 60, and hasn't exactly lived on vegetables and water his whole life. Gillan is a true rock 'n' roller, and great hardrock vocalist to this day. He can't hit those highest notes anymore, but he sure can rock, and by the standards make it f***ing great Live.

  • Great music , Deep Purple live , good concert play. in  Slovakia - Kosice .

  • you are right croatian098 because in my view this is the best solo of deep purple + gillan spoils it when singing during the solo

  • why does gillan always have to sing over guitar solo?

  • @Croatian098 ... i don't know, steve doesn't seem to mind too much...

    if gillan had done that with ritchie, he probably would have ended up with a strat-o-caster sticking out of his butt!

  • I doubt that! People like you like to think the worst between Gillan and Blackmore. Gillan sang like that over many of Ritchie's solos in 1985 and 1987 for instance. I have bootleg videos of those days, showing a happy Deep Purple playing Live. Gillan and Blackmore having a blast onstage together. Gillan singing like this over Ritchie's solo in 'Highway Star'. Check out my videos from 1987. I'm putting up a lot 'House Of Blue Light' tour videos.

  • R.Glover is the best bass player

    LONG LIVE ROCK N ROLL + DEEP PURPLE 4 EVER

  • I think Gillan has his good nights and bad nights. But I'd see Gillan at his worst than ever see Purple With Another Singer.

  • Well put! Joe Lynn Turner sang worse than Gillan these days, when he was in Purple....singing the MK.II classics....and even MK.III's 'Burn'. JLT is a great commercial softrock singer, not a hardrock vocalist. He ruined every song Gillan originally sang on, in 1991.

  • no, i don't guess, ok he had better nights but it was ok

  • Long Live DEEP PURPLE...YOU ROCK FOREVER!!!!!!!

  • Steve`s intro is great

  • @13skydiver don't forget ian and roger's great performance!!!

  • @13skydiver don't forget ian and roger's great performance!!!

  • ian is having a difficult singing at this intensity now..

  • You should have heard him in Split the next year. He was as good as he was on Made In Japan album.

  • Judging from this, sadly he's declined a lot since the Bananas tour i saw, that was pretty much dead on. Unfortunately soon it'll be time to hang up mic after 40 years of awesome performances which is a great legacy and achievement by any standard. Total respect and love for the guy, i hope he bows out with dignity before it becomes a joke.

  • i'm a higway star!!!

  • hey, at least, Morse plays most of the original Machine Head notes.. Richie was bound to go off on a tangent at any moment

  • This is the new lineup for Deep Purple My friend.

  • 7:22 is EPIC!

  • Deep Purple = Fuckin' Gods. Period.

  • what"s animal at 6:37 = =?

  • Ian Gillan doesn't sing very well anymore :/

    But I can't even sing well in my age so I shut up :D

  • What the hell to do people expect when Blackmore refuses to play with them? They went out and got a guitar that is more talented than him. He's not the original and I guess that counts for something but I'm more interested in hearing a good show.

  • whats the intro song

  • i think it is just improvisation..... They are amazing!!

  • ya my dad said that they both hard a duel to see who you pick the fastest lol

  • steve morse est le meilleur.kel impro de fou

  • Ian Paice forever!He's the best drummer

    i know!His technics impressed me when

    i was 4 years old.Then i decided to become a drummer.I LOVE DEEP PURPLE!

  • that intro is great, i really liked it

  • My god Gillian sounds bad on the first verse... like hes holding his nose shut. and on that note Noone can replace Blackmore, period

  • on 2009 tour aren t they playing pictures of home ?

  • lord at keyboards was better than what don airey is....

  • whats first song

  • Pictures of home is the first song

  • thank you.

  • No, it isnt.

  • sorry rod evans was better. but Ian Gillan is amazing too!!!!!!

  • Great performance, Gillans vocals arent what they used to be but he still rocks.

  • Ian Gillan is the BEST !!!

  • anewt72690

    Vocal VS Guitar is an essence of Purples music.

  • does anyone have guitar tabs for this intro???

  • that would be great...

  • Not enough keyboards/organ in todays music. Its sexy as hell!

  • 6:41

    OMFG Gillan is clucking like a chicken!!!

  • laberdad un intro inpreionante y una delas mejores canciones q tiene DEEP PURPLE al igual q muchas otras.

  • Amazing, Steve really nailed the song here. Looking forward to the concert in November allready. Gillan is still in top form here, not like 5-6 years ago, but still amazing. Ian Paice is banging on the drums like never before, Roger's basswork is brilliant as always. Don Airey is one of the best heavyrock keyboardplayers ever, and does a tremendious job. Thanks for posting! Great stuff from one of the best bands ever, still going strong to this day.

  • @DPboy20 Don Airey is copy of John Lord. This not his solo. This is John Lord solo from CD.

  • @Valwrvr Is Don Airey a copy of Jon Lord just cause he plays a Jon Lord's solo?

    Right, in your simplist logic, Deep Purple and Rainbow are copys of Beethoven. Led Zeppelin is a copy of Taurus and a infinity of another bands.

    Please, watch what you say.

  • @Valwrvr Highway Star are not Highway Star if without solo from John Lord. and i think Don Airey doing excellent work on this song!

  • NIce whit say & inspira`` Way to go , there have to be .. all Right !

  • although the gilian vocal's are not power enough to sing this kind of song..im sill respect to them !!! salute to them !

  • gillian sounds out of pitch

  • blackmore y morse son la neta dos de los mejores guitarristas que he escuchado, steve morse es el meor relvo que pudieron encontrar para cubrir el hueco dejado por blackmore.

  • great sound!

  • Everything was perfect until 6:38.

  • It was still good but Gillan needs to shut up during Morse's solo.

  • I've been to see Purple twice in last year and I can assure you Gillan was magnificent at both gigs. The whole band are simpy amazing. Tickets are booked for Hammersmith in November. See you all there!

  • Well that is your opinion, and you are entitled to that, I think it is a load of crap what you say and that is my opinion....

  • that's what you think, well im going to say one fact, i went to a purple concert in july 07 gillan was singing like he did in '99!

  • Morse, fucking rules, one of the best guitar players ever :D

  • LONG LIVE THE PURPLE!!!

  • i love deep purple for 3 years (i am 17) when my mother made me listen highway star for the first time I fell in love with this group. this no evening when i don't listen highway star star and the well dressed guitar.

  • Well Julien, start listen to other songs too than, it is getting time, listen to Soldier of Fortune, Sometimes I feel like screaming, Anyones Daughter etc.

  • ya no le da mas la voz a ian.. en el estribillo se revienta la voz para poder hacerlo!

  • Gillian is still going strong for someone of his old age, you can tell that this song is becoming really difficult for him.

  • yo los vi aki en Argentina y fue ESPECTACULAR !!!!!!DEEP PURPLE FOR EVERRR

  • Si!!!!, yo los vi aca en chile, DEEP PURPLE ES ESPECTACULAR!!! ademas yo toco en una banda de rock y esa vez en el concierto me di cuenta cual era mi estilo de musica y me sirvio de inspiracion para la banda!! DEEP PURPLE FOR EVER!!!!

  • che te pregunto xq veo que sos de los unicos que hablan español aca.. burn no la tocan mas??

  • Burn no la toca mas Deep Purple... la toca Whitesnake y Glen Huges como solista ya que Coverdale y Huges la escribieron en 1974 y son propiedad de ellos.

  • Si, deep purple con ian gillan no la tocaron mas, por que ian gillan no se sentia identificado con esa cancion, ya que cuando la compusieron estaba david coverdale no ian gillan.

    A proposito eres argentino cierto?

    Un saludo!!!

  • sisi soy de argentina.. una lastima que no toquen mas ese tema xq es buenisimo! igual se lo puede escuchar a david y a glenn tocarlo asique no quedo en la historia!

  • Si, es una lastima por que es una de mis canciones favoritas de Deep Purple, pero que le vamos a hacer. ademas deep purple tiene muuuuuchaaaas!! canciones para disfrutar jajaja.

    Soy de Chile. Saludos!

  • hiiiiiem a higwaay staaaaaa......

  • Steve Morse rules, and is simphatic.

    But Blackmore is Blackmore...

    Is symbolic

  • I went to a Deep Purple show this year and I assure you that Gillan is singing perfectly well. I think 2006 wasn't a good year for him.

  • yo los vi aki en chile y fue ESPECTACULAR !!!!!!

  • Mean Don airey sure know how to fill lord's shoes, man he is just amazing

  • I found gilan just amazing. this song is really hard to sing. He is 60 or so years old and still sings it.

  • Gillan was great, and i bet he would still be great if they detuned the whole instumental section

  • his voice really fucked up too bad

  • Great arrangement, good performance, except for the vocal.

  • l'intro è veramente bello!!!!

    gillan vai in pensioneeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!

  • madonna...gillan non ce la fa più, BASTA i deep dei tempi d'oro sono quelli della formazione blackmore gillan glover lord e paice...BASTA FORZARE le cose!!!!!!!:'(

  • i saw them live!!! AWESOME :D

  • i gonna see them in just a few hours!!! =D

  • What the hell happened to Ian Gillan's voice. It's sad how old he's getting...

  • im going to see them soon :D:D!!

  • John Lord simply retired.  Great stuff, but, as noted below, nearly ruined by Gillan.

  • Why John Lord leave this band???????? somebody knows this notice?????

  • you cant so shit no more cause steve morse is in top 10 and inspires millions and millions of people, im a musician and im also an ernie ball user on there forum and they have met steve and nothing about steve has negative comments about him......im tired of you dumbass lowlife's trying to make your point when you just dont make sense! now shuuush! off go!

  • I have in fact met Purple multiple times excpet Blackmore and lord, but Steve as once i said a magnificent technician, is also errogant and he treats the little people he meets porle i have from him 3 or 4 autogrpahed picks, yes blackmore had his downs but his anger and lust to blow the rest of the band off the stage made purple a powerhouse,and look Blackmore worte a simple riff that is the most recognizable of all time. Perpendicular is gret album but is nothing compared to Macine Head

  • I can c by ur page tat u are a Die hard Morse fan and i can respect tat but u cant claim morse is beter tan Blackmroe without evidence, morse himslef sasy howmuch he respects blackmore and he likes to play solos how Blackmore used to. Yes he gave Purple new direction and sound, but when u say the words Deep Purple, do u think Steve Morse, or do u thin Ritchie Blackmore? Again this is all OPINION and no book says this man is betr i prefer Ritchie u prefer Steve just dont run ur mouth witno suprt

  • i know deep purple as deep purple not ritchie blackmore.... steve morse is not arrogant for the lat time, deep purple has a tight schedule in on the road 20 hours a day its stressful but you can say arrogant. rock n roll was so big, and thats how ritchie was voted "one" of the best guitarist, but the true and closest to any full musical accomplishment with every style there is steves got it in him. voted best overall guitarist 5 years in a row, in the top best guitarist. im done talking to you

  • you can´t miss ritchie when you hear steve playing. he is a great guitar player and i´ve never anyone that makes a guitar sound like he does

  • he lost voice during his career...go see SPEED KING from "doing their things live in 1970" here on youtube

  • sucky voice

  • hes more than 60 years old i wanna see u do tat when ur 60 years old

  • wtf!!!! HIS VOICE SOUNDS LIKE A MIGIT!!! HA HAA

  • Mon groupe préféré (L) Dommage que il y ai un petit quelque chose en moins depuis que Lord et Blackmore sont partis...

  • Sorry guys, but it's not purple without Blackore. Period.

  • no your right! you know what, this is an even better band with soul fun and friendship! morse made at that!

  • actually he didnt lord, glover, and paice did i know ive met them all, even morse morse is very errogant he is still great player though, not as good as blackmore

  • steve morse is very arrogant??? do you even realize the crap thats comin out of you mouth?

    lol talk about arrogant, look at you mister that dont know shit about music or even steve morse, ritchie is no near the music accomplishment like steve morse. you did not meet them so quit your lies mister you just, its pretty sad how you try and find something to point at steve morse when its not even true, i would never want to meet blackmore since he treats his fans like shit!

  • no purple without Bolin!

  • they don't try to make it purple......

  • If you check out DP2005 "Perfect Strangers" at Hard Rock or DP2006 Montreux "Pictures of Home" Gillan is singing very well-he seems to struggle on this particular video.

  • Right, man!

    The live a montreux is not a great vocal performance... The Hard Rock Cafè one is better!

  • Yeah, I agree. You dig the sarcasm?

  • Hey shut up! Don't forget about his young voice, now he is too old, but he sings still quite good. He's a big name

  • Nobody gonna take my car!!! Man he's good!!!! Gillan has the most beautiful voice ever. Sounds like he overcame a helium addiction.

  • still the best song from the 70's, he still got the screaming voice,, nice lol

  • i wasted about 9 mins of my life watching this fucking awesome clip, i wish them come to australia :(

  • DP ta cd vez melhor... sem dúvida. Qualidade melhorando a cada ano.

  • putmare esta cancion es de lo mejor ke he escuxado en mi vida y el intor esta bn paja...

  • wel...i think gillan is trying to hard...he has a decent voice...but he tries to proof hes just like his old times (and obviously hes not) still nice perfomance...glad to see morse plays the solo with that magnifical blackmore's structure

  • btw, it's a pity that John Lord has left DP. He played the Hammond Organ very well! But Airey isn't bad at all ;)

  • What a damn comment! It is always harder for singers to perform as good as in the past when they get older, but that doesn't mean it's worse, it just sounds differently!
