Deep Purple - April - P2 German TV 1970 (Very Rare Footage!)

[jh110]

This song is gonna last forever!

[pathfinder2006]

I think this video CANNOT display the band on the whole, because Gillan had just replaced Evans and so Glover for Simper

[jo2jokiel]

wowwwwwwwwwwwww its great having rock band playing with orchestra..now a days dont have much band playing with orchestra...amazing deep purple!!!

Rod Evans in the voice 

[3nriks]

im so sad... that's the studio version once again. I would kill to rlly listen a live of this song.

[57250tr]

Just when you think you've seen all the Deep Purple footage, something totally new pops up. I hope this phenomenon never stops

[provincianesca]

excelente...y yo que pensaba que conocia toda la discografia de purple

Si al guien me supiese decir cual era la formacion completa?

El tecladista me parece Lord y esa guitarra richie blackmore,perdon si me equivoco pero que hermoso tema que bien entra y sale la orquesta gracias por traer esta joya.

Hey this is really a great and rare video from this amazing band, thanxs for all the music and school DEEP PURPLE !!!!!!!!

[occams99]

Oh those Germans and their zany hijinx! It's like a music video from the snl skit "Shprockets". It wouldn't matter if the screen showed only a closeup of Yaphet Khotto, it was still a great jam. Too bad they didn't do it like a couple of dueling bands with the orchestra in the middle. Rather than the ensemble jamming away for a while, I think having them act as a musical fulcrum between Deep Purple and a band like Jethro Tull would have made for an amazing video but then again I'm not German.

[thevinnymaster]

Hey Blackmore! A few steps to the right!!!

[srtyxczewlsrolkid]

Who sinning here?

Evans from playback or Gillan in real situation?

Who answear me?

[RitchieWhitemore]

Now I know that I do not know all of what was published by Deep Purple while I am a fan since 1970.

[jaffeyannai]

I think this is simply amazing. Thank you so much for uploading, and DPurple1968, I hope you're aware of being the best uploader.

[shredmaster100]

why is it shot from behind i cant see the band what a dumb idea

[MINDCONTROLLEDLOVE]

@shredmaster100 LOL

[nazzare79]

in opposition with most of the comments here I find this video astonishing...this is something historical, more of a documentary post-hippies psichedelic age which reflects the society of the time then a simple music video...and this is great...

[zukaka84]

Don't you think there is some part of the frame cut on the left side? How come we see only three or four members of the group?

[boritom]

I for one would love to hear Ian sing this one. I would also like to take the German director, who kept killing the mood of the song by cutting other sound and ambiance into it, and cut some ambiance into his head with a claw hammer. What a fucking asshole.

[zolwik155]

we ar elite

[jaganjacfan]

This is original version with Evan singing...there's no way they could play this outdoors ...

[purpleneil59]

I find this very disappointing. April is a great song but seeing mark 2 (with the exception of Blackmore who is mostly off screen) from the back miming a mark one song is no great thing. How must Gillan have felt having to mime Evan's voice?

[mikedivino]

Amazing !!!.....Thanks!

[erezhal]

god dame!

[CanHappend]

афигенно естественно, Но О ЧЁМ это видео, нах??)))

[CanHappend]

Awesome of corse, but what this video Abought???)

[jeferpsicodelia]

hermoso y excelente vídeo muchas gracias

[kneelandpray1]

Incredible video....

[TheStargazer97]

@kneelandpray1  davvero

[nazzare79]

the speed up at the end make this song even better than the original studio one...this should have been recorded live in studio...anyway a complete Masterpiece!

[boritom]

@nazzare79 Actually, this is the exact same recording, although I think they might have used a different take for the guitar solo at the end. Otherwise, it's the same.

[jemswede]

This is excellent!!! Wow!!! Amazing!!!

[prophet3011]

KdF Video?

[BlackPurpleFish]

A briliant masterpiece by the worlds greatest rock band.

[11Kralle]

Der kalte Krieg hatte auch sein Gutes! Fernsehen wurde noch als Propaganda gebraucht und nicht als Plutokratenzuchtprogramm:

Richtige Menschen, richtige Instrumente, richtige Musik und jegliches Fehlen von obskuren DJ´s, Rappern, Fickschlitten und sonstigen Posern!!!

Hieronymus Boschs `musikalische Hölle´ auf dem Cover des `DeepPurple´-Albums war mehr als angemessen:)

[RaerY1959]

Das müsste 'Deep Purple meets Classic' sein.

[luckyrocky1]

Geil, das waren noch Zeiten !
