Blackmore sliding guitar up and down Gillan's backside

[aacugna8]

Ja Ja Ja, Excelente...

BLACKMORE arrodillado dedicándole sus guitarreos a GILLAN y después realiza un solo VERSÓN PORNO detrás de GILLAN.

[guitarlawyer75]

What? And they didn't try to kill each other? A rare moment of love, indeed :)

[Lil1943]

@ssjumbo2 LOLOL - wouldn't it be nice if they could "get over it" before they die? Beautiful music together . . . .

[Staziish]

I am god. Blackmore=great!

[fmaykall]

wow queeeee bueno esta esto

[RobinStrower]

It´s called the Blackmore butt boogie \m/

Robin :o)

[FlightoftheSpeedKing]

Gillan still had it at this point. Odd to see him and Ritchie so playful together.

[Silber7]

uhh... and it even fittet musically in his solo! oO  wow.

[rodentcafeteria]

Man, what year was this? Hardly ever seen interplay between Ritchie and Ian (or Ritchie and anyone, for that matter). Every time I've ever seen Deep Purple, you got the impression those two couldn't stand each other. Good to see they did have chemistry at least part of the time.

[bleucheese33]

@rodentcafeteria According to an interview I saw with Ian, him and Ritchie were actually close friends and hotel roomates after he joined the group. Common interplay onstage would include both miming the Chuck Berry walk during Lucille. Oh well...

[115Nata]

Hm.... Maybe thew two just love each other indeed?)))...... Of course I`m joking )

[seventiesclassic]

@115Nata

That's a rarity..Ritchie played a few " bum " notes...I'm joking too !!

[StephAMPERSAND]

hmmm. some would say lucky guitar.. i would say that as well . anthing that has Mr. Blackmore's hands on it would prove to be lucky..... great talent love that band

[patrickmichels]

Great intense solo by Blackmore. Loved the chemistry betw him and Gillan. Must've been being back in Germany got RB feeling good again.

[vucic89]

probably the unique video.I was realy enjoing because of Ian and Ritchie..there was still reciprocal respect between them..you could feel that friendly ambient,inspiration and fantastic talent . many thanks for posting.

[ntsms69]

If that was nowadays, then that Strataocater may never be seen again!!!!!

Possibly just a guitar lead trailling out of Gillans arse..........

[paulspalace]

Thats a rare sight, and what was missing in the renion the chemistry between Gillan and Blackmore i was lucky enough to see them in the hey-day of 71/72 when they bounced off each other trading vocal screams for guitar notes that u couldn't tell which was which, taunting each other it was pure magic. Made in Japan captured them at their peak. Sadly the chemistry went and it was just loggerheads between them.

[pjotr669]

It seemed they were both for it! Wou!

[Lordmore88]

he actually slides the guitar on the mic stand, a common method to create noise

[MikeThePlanBSk8er]

WTF!? but funny:D

[maghole]

A moment of history! So sad that they hate each other =(

[misfit496]

What song is this, I can't quite make out what Gillan is singing...

[fastra]

Highway Star

[vectragt2310]

Take a gun and kill yourself if you don´t recognize Highway Star, ok ???

[z603dauren]

What great moment of the DP history!!

5 stars!!!

[tonylavele]

Where this footage was taken?

[SilverTounge85]

Ritchie was in a good mood here, but it's early on, on the 1987 tour. Ritchie and Ian's friendship gradually deteriated over the tour. On the 1988 leg, they hardly spoke to eachother, and presumably Gillan was "fired" after that leg of the 'House Of Blue Light' tour. Ritchie told Gillan that Clapton couldn't play guitar as well, which outraged Gillan.

[Chocheonline]

And Ritchie wasn't lying. This only good music Clapton put was with Cream and he wasn't the main composer there. After dad all his music was crap, and if you see clapton play now, you can tell how many time he hasn't put to practice his guitar.

[ElwoodBlackmore]

i can't believe you just said that.

Eric is a one of the greatest. he plays with so much feeling i don't think BB King would say that clapton is a blessed guitarist for no reason.

[marcusmalmros]

clapton is a very great gutarist if you guys just try to listen to some of hes music without listen to it just to find wrongs just try and you will understand with how much feeling Clapton plays with

[Whackooyzero]

@ElwoodBlackmore What makes Eric one of the greatest? Yeah he plays with feeling but so do many other, more varied players like Blackmore, Steve Howe, and Jeff Beck.

[Hedgeweed]

Ha ha! Very amusing.

[waystedkiss]

if you can't tell thats Blackmore playing even without the picture you don't know Blackmore or Purple .

[jk31213]

yeah i know for sure its blackmore hes my fav guitar player. yet i was just makin a point he always dressed in black. always. hes not wearing black here. i justthought it was strange...

[enryrnr]

Blackmore is God

[olhole]

best band EVER

[balakutak2]

This is from "Nobody's Perfect" tour, right?Where this footage was taken? Phoenix..?Thx 4 posting.

[SilverTounge85]

'House Of Blue Light' Tour 1987/88. The Live album from the tour is called 'Nobody's Perfect'. Great Live album, but I wish they had included 'The Unrwritten Law' on it as well. Ian's drumsolo in that song was amazing.

[NameSupplied]

what are you talking about, he used gillans shiny leather bum to make a slide like guitar effect, you can even hear it loud and clear. You can see gillan is a happy patner in it as he dances to it.

[playmannn]

Maybe Gillan annoyed him by staying so close all the time,but Blackmore usually does something crazy during this solo,like in 1993 when he spills a glass of water over the TV camera.He used to be so childish...

[MOSKII58]

does any one know what the beef was between the Blackmore & Gillian? , was it a few isolated incidents, or just a constant resentment ..based on what exactly??

[ssjumbo2]

May be he was trying to electrocute Gillan..

[allanhold]

yes, really RB he couldn't stand Gillan at all

[MrElkhan72]

@ssjumbo2 that was hilarious man, funny as hell. Blackmore pretended to have fun on the stage with Gillan, but in reality was saying to himself "I'm gonna get you motherfucker, how about electrocuting your ass?" hahaha

[ElwoodBlackmore]

thanks for posting this rioborg. :P

this made my day :D

[l2marttin]

axaxaxa, they fight all the time.

[jmastersherm1]

LOL!

[nickbarock]

Hahahahahahaha good times!!!

[whitezepp]

very rare and funny.

[jeffs0358]

Ha-ha!! Hilarious...they were friends once then;-)

[TRambo55]

Cool!!! Ritchie rubbing Gillans ass with his guitar,its just magnificent!!!
