  • i saw DP in show this week in Montreal !! Deep Purple Rules !!

  • lol, my daughter is with me now, listening to Ian she say's he can't sing lol. I tell her once upon a time but yup she's right, Not half the voice he used to be.

  • fuck the black and the trash metal..that's music

  • @kostas21925

    FUCK YOU! Thrash Metal is great i bet you don ´t know what Thrash Metal really is. It´s very different to play a fast solo on the guitar, so shut up ! I guess you mean Death Metal and metalcore! FUCK OF Metalcore !

  • @Undertaker6826 well,I suppose that you mean trash is Slayer,megadeth,metallica etc.that's not music,it has dark and always the same rhythm.. go listen some Motorhead's stuff or Maiden and you will learn what metal really is..

  • THE DEEPEST ROCK 'N' ROLL BAND EVER.

    :)

    RITCHIE, JON, IAN G. (DAVID C.) , IAN P. & ROGER (GLENN)... Thanx guys. My life is pretty because of You and Your music. GOD, LET THEM LIVE A BILLION YEARS!

  • @JOHNNYNSROCK

    God can never shine on the band who was, no remake him shinable to his Glory.

    Amen.

  • one of the best songs ever..

  • I´m 17 years old and this band is one of the reason why I make music!!!!

    Just amazing!

  • Is there a show after the reunion in '84 in which Ian Gillan hit all notes?

  • @lw48wp4 He has not been able to since the 70s no, that's the problem when you excel yourself in the studio.

  • @TomGreenUK I found a live version of this song on an album called "100% Rock". Blackmore's sound and Gillan's voice sound like 80s but I think Gillan hits all notes without playback. But I don't know exactly when it was recorded. That's why I asked. You can find it on my channel...

  • Lol 666 votes o.o :D

  • Ian gets better control over it @ 3:11.

    At least he didn't wimp out & downtune or anything, he still went for it, & I give him props for that. Most singers his age would be too afraid they'd fail & wouldn't go for the high part.

  • I press LIKE button just when the song started. :)

  • the drummer looks like elton john

  • @palestineoliver an 12year old girl...listen to this ...shit she got the style !!!! amazing x

  • Ian Gillan is my all-time favourite singer! But here is beyond his expire date.

  • Ian paice is looking Elvis in those wigs =)

  • Sweet child locked in time

  • Is not that the Birmingham concert on Nov. 9, 1993, during which Ritchie Blackmore left the scene? Because everything seems to indicate are that this concert. If so, this is the last concert of the best composition of the group. A week after it Ritchie go away. From the Deep Purple of course.

  • @JTAqualung he didnt left during concert, instead a week later (as u said:)

  • Deep Purple forever! I've heard this song in 1971 was a student in St-Petersburg

    university. Since that time love from the bottom of my heart. This is music, that touches and moves. Jonas Brothers und alle, verpisst Euch!

    Deep Purple you are the music.

  • This is the MUSIC!!!!!!

  • Hard Rock Anthem

  • I think the song is still relevant.

  • Ritchie surpasses himself! I love this song!

  • Gänsehaut pur, sehr geil !!!

  • Gänsehaut pr, sehr geil !!!

  • Richy, one of the most "under estamated" Rock star;s of all time!

  • Man it is awesome to be able to see this stuff and not just hear it. They are incredible!

  • blackmore for eve. he crecido con este grupo simplemente es impresionante desde paice , lord. glover gillan y por supuesto nuestro hombre de negro no hay , no ha habido y por lo visto hoy en dia no habra nadie que le haga sombra

  • masterpiece!!

  • Vocal's equal's 0!!!

  • who says bad about dee purple ylea imis gamzrdeli movtyan da fuck her or him

  • blackmore is the best among the best....

  • i grew up on these and other bands in the 70's and I enjoy a lot of the

    new artists mentioned here, I spend no time argueing over which gen is better,

    that would give me less time to just enjoy music.

  • for me Mark Knofler then rest

  • Blackmore, yes, for me the number 4, before, Page, Clapton, Beck and then Ritchie.

  • @paintblk blackmore is number 1 then clapton,page and beck

  • blackmore & hendrix kick ass!

  • Not much voice left in Gillian ...

  • People may stone me to death, but I like Purple better than Zep. This song is the reason for it

  • @guitarlawyer75 ... Both Zep and Purple DID absolutely make real rock live ...

  • @timenjordy Agreed, but Taylor Swift is hot and Justin Bitch shouldn’t be mentioned in any rock video! (I personal think he shouldn't be mentioned anywhere :/) Just saying...

  • @timenjordy im 16 all i listen to is deep purple rainbow and hendrix fuck all that new shit

  • @timenjordy yea sooo true!!

    I´m 14 and e4body who has the same age really loves lady gaga, justin bieber or ohter SHIT.. x_x

    But everytime they start talking about them I say (*almost scream) do u know slash/guns n roses/acdc/led zeppelin or something...

    I"m driving e4body fuckin mad with talking all the time about them xD

    it's just fun <3 <3 <3

    But I mean; how can they listen to that shit while there's music like this?? O_o

    HARDROCK FOREVER!!! \m/

  • Good song and a good performance BUT....... This is definitely not one of Blackmores most inspired solos. This if from the period where he was rapidly loosing interest in the band, When he was good he was the best but when he is like he was in the end quite frankly the band is far better off with Steve Morse,

    Blackmore WAS great but i really think he has lost it. the stuff he makes with Candice is really good music BUT it is not the Blackmore we all knew and loved.

  • @ovemunk I've seen Morse play live in Belgium, he's good no doubt, but he's not been able to come up with any immortal riffs as Blackmore. He did not copy Morse, he invented his own brand of original music. Morse is playing cover versions. Ask any Purple fan to single out the best 6 Purple tracks of their lifetime and they 'll point to any in the field of the Mk II and Mk III period. The Morse period does not offer any outstanding compositions. Purple's peak came in the 70s and THAT is history.

  • @Toottycat I don't disagree, Blackmore is in a class for himself no doubt about that. My point is that he is also VERY temperamental and his playing varies a LOT. When he is good he is awesome but when he is bad........ (i have heard him with Rainbow - CRAP). Morse is not a innovator and he shreds a bit too much for my liking BUT he is a 100% nice guy and easy to get along with and he supports the band and he play Rythm and.... :-) He is just SO much easier to work with than Blackers....

  • @ovemunk Sure enough, I fully agree, Morse is more of a pleasant guy whereas Blackmore was temperamental by nature. At any rate, I think that if we look objectively we have to judge artists (of any art or discipline) by their career output rather than their character.

  • @Toottycat Certainly and imho Blackmore is on the top 5 of guitarists. The way he combines classic motives with sheer artistry and lightning speed is awesome to listen too and his dabble with other harmonies is something quite unique. "Gates of Babylon" f.inst with it's middle east inspiration (melodic minor). He also had his very own distinct sound which is what i REALLY miss in DP. Morse's sound is way to "digital" for my liking. BUT i can fully understand why they prefer Morse. ;-)

  • @ovemunk That's perfectly right... You hit the nail squarely on the head. Cheers!

  • Gillan still looks great

    and his voice is still magic

    He was the original jesus christ in JC Superstar

  • Ian Gillan is one of the best of the world!!!

  • Who ARE those kids? They're pretty decent. And the guitar player - almost John Mayer-good!

  • Ritchie Blackmore's solo from 4:40 is just unbelievable

  • aunque Ian ya había perdido facultades (es normal) por esta época, la canción sigue siendo espectácular y llena de sentimiento, a mi me seguirá haciendo vibrar por muchas veces que la escuche en mi vida

  • wtf 15 people with no brain

  • This song is orgasmic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!

  • Ian can't - or won't - hit the high notes in this video. I'm not surprised, after many years of screaming like that. And I've seen Ritchie play way better than this, back in the 70s. All that said, they sound very good considering they had been playing many of the same songs on and off together for 25 years.

  • Was soll ich sagen? Spricht doch für sich! Einfach das Beste von den Besten in der besten Besetzung die es je gab! Hören und geniesen!

  • 5:14 genius 

  • love this band, this concert was my first dvd. I have played it sooooo many times.

  • Maybe Page can play any kind of music, but Ritchie plays his one style much better than page Plays many styles.

    But I think Page AND Blackmore were much better 30 years ago than today.

    (sorry for my English, I'm German)

  • @lw48wp4 more better than one...if u learn about education...the more u expert about subject the more change to pass...i know ritchie style..and i know page style...but if u heard rainbow and purple, their always same sound and same riff..and to be honest...sometimes i get boring when i heard ritchie solo...even i recognised him as good guitar player...

  • Comment removed

  • This is what Rock n Roll is all about! songs that get under your skin, this is one of my all time favorite songs by any band, IAN was and is an awesome vocalist and song writer and PAICE was one of my early influences.

  • richie is good guitar player...but not good as jimmy page...page can play any kind of music...that is reality...

  • er@mang1011 don't be stupid don't compared them they're nothin alike jimmy page was the shit with zeppelin but wasn't shit after zep, in the other hand blackmore was the founder of purple, rainbow and richie blackmore's night so that makes him an epic guitar player I'm not sayin one is better tah the other just that blackmore as acomplished more

  • what? the date live??

  • Love 2:53

  • A bit older now, like me. But still a milestone in music.

  • the best from the best

  • @TerrorPillie You can say that again... for the benefit of younger generations!! The older generations have lived through that magical period.

  • These guy are just fucking todays music. 90's never returns :( One of the best concerts of Deep Purple MK2, thnx for sharing!

  • ein Meilenstein... - mit der beste Anti-Kriegssong, den ich je gehört habe... 

  • Última apresentação com o grande Blackmore, solando muito, como sempre. Já o Gillan, tá mal nesse show. Mas vale como o último registro do verdadeiro Deep Purple.

  • Poor Gillan. Someone should have been squeezing his balls when aiming for those high notes.

  • falto ganas.....

  • It suck's that he can't hit those high notes :(

  • @xXMEXICONXx No Ian Gilian can't anymore

  • @9missClaire

    He can sing but not scream.

  • These people are true artists in the very sense of the word: trying out new things without worrying about eventual commercial success, taking risks, surprising people, opening new gates, defining a whole new kind of music. In my country this song was elected best of the 100 best songs of all time during nearly 25 years and rightfully so: this is the masterpiece in rock's history.

  • scalloped finger boards ?

  • lo mejorrrr lejos

  • RItchie totally lost inside the melody

  • aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa - fail

  • @ZelenaBananaa yo, banana KID! 1st of all try to measure your attitude towards one of the greatest bands that defined the rock industry and pay some proper respect.

    2nd of all try to sing like on the original record the let's see you after 40 years if you'll keep up with the voice.

    If you think you can do better, prove yourself. But until then stop being a spoiled brat.

  • @ZelenaBananaa You didn't get smacked enough as a kid. Show some respect. It takes a hell of a singer to sing like that, especially after almost 50 years.

  • @Shaggyshadric i know but the fact is that the aaaaaaaaaa in this song is bad.

  • @ZelenaBananaa you what's bad? it's bad that your mother didn't go with abortus you piece of dogshit!

  • A milestone in hard rock: There was nothing like this before and nothing like it ever after. This composition is radically different than anything else that has appeared either in Deep Purple's own recordings or in other rock musicians' repertoire. This track simply stands out in a class of its own - a 'one-off' musical experience never to be repeated again in the history of rock. It was launched almost 40 years ago and its indelible 'punch' without compare still towers today as ever before.

  • @Toottycat Agreed, the structure of the song is incredibly complex (or rather plain unusual) compared to its similiarity in chords and time signatures. I doubt anyone will ever top this, it was even better live back in the day when they first performed it, which still can be relived (to some extent) through the DVDs.

  • @paragraph7 Yes, I too believe that the earlier versions are best. When you replicate past glories after a span of time they lose their original spontaneous quality. As you say, we can fortunately relive the experience of the past through DVDs.

  • @Toottycat escpecially when Gillan can't even hit the lowest notes in the chorus : ) Still i think the fact that he can't sing it correctly anymore creates the legend that once was Mk 2, that once was one of the most original band of all time. And in that legend it still lives on, probably forever.

  • @paragraph7 Rightly so, Mk II are the topmost line-up, and, I would add, also Mk III offered some remarkable compositions, but ever since, their overall musical production is, by comparison, declassed. Now Steve Morse may be a talented guitarist (though to me Blackmore remains definitely superior) but Morse has to date not produced one single riff that has become immortal, unlike Blackmore, whose riffs are indellibly etched in musical history.

  • @Toottycat That's what i been thinking for sometime now, how musicians sometime think that the point is to be mainly skilled with their instruments. I have seen loads of covers on youtube covering Deep Purple songs etc. perfectly to the note, but that's only copying. It may be fun to play covers and see if you can play the same songs as the masters but the pure musicianship and talent, in my opinion, should show in what you create out of nothing. Which is what Blackmore and Co. did.

  • @paragraph7 You are 100 per cent to the point, and as you say, it's not all about how fast or skilled you may be with your instrument but what you create with your instrument, what you invent and compose. Unfortunately many people fail to grasp this fundamental issue and peevishly harp out how fast is Mr X and how cool is Mr Y and how flashy is Mr Z. It takes much more than that to be a master and Blackmore proved himself to be in a class of his own - his track record of works are living proof.

  • @Toottycat

    It couldn't be any different than how you said it!

  • epica con stargazer y fighting man de gillan

  • It took almost 15 years for him to realise that he doesn't have the same vocal cappabilities as he used to have and that he just can't sing Child in Time like it's meant to be sang. But he anyway gets my applause for just trying to sing it.

  • I can't understand why some people don't like Ian Gillan the man has serious problem with his voice and you can compare him like he was in 70's!!!! the man is a great artist and vocalist with powerful talent!!! This song is an anthem and Gillan he stand's very good for a better version you must watch india '95!

  • horrible version :S

  • @jcast18k Are you insane perhaps?

  • Вот так хуярить надо на гитаре, как Ричи Блэкмор, а не всякие там токиохотел.

  • For those as old as I am, this song was DP's anthem, even though most people consider it to be "Smoke on The Water".

    I still have my original "Shades" LP released in '68..... but it isn't in very good shape.

  • kick ass song \m/

  • oh no!!! HIS VOICE!? Where is his voice?

  • Blackmore's also terrible... I'd be much better if Jon played whole solo on hammond...

  • no... i like this solo...

  • @Gryszaq  You have absolutely no clue do you? Better stop getting high. This song is a classic since probably before you were born.

  • You missunderstood. We know, there was some concerts where Blackmore did not play beacuse of fights with Gillan. Lord said that it was better playing olny with Ian and Roger, than playing with offended Blackmore. This song is damn classic since it has been written. But to my mind it would be better if it was played with flow. Blackmore didn't show any feelings just moving his fingers without any idea.

  • Okie Dokie @Gryszaq

    Blackmore was always more the unemotional stoic kinda guy. :)

  • Yeah, but when he was even a little enthusiastic to a concert, it was great performed show. Dialogues between Hammond and guitar, fantastic improvisations. Here I can't hear a sing of good improvisation. But anyway Ritchie is Ritchie. I still think, his the only guitarist, who fits DP. Notice, he never plays any rythm guitar part. This task is played by Jon. Other guitarists a little changed this "style". That's why Blackmore can't be replaced if talking about real, classic DP..

  • I have been watching more versions of this song on YouTube, and now I think I agree with you somewhat. I was already a man when the first version of the song came out, and that is what is in my head all these years. But most of Ritchie's other takes during performances were not even close to the spirit of the original riffs. See next post...

  • I am always one to give some license to slight variations, just to makes things interesting and give a slightly different twist, but his riffs didn't even make the song recognizable at all. I could have listened to just the riffs, and not even known what song he was playing.

  • Actually organ plays parts, which could be somehow named "riffs". I am not as lucky as you. I "became a men" when Jon Lord turned grey ;p I had to discover hundrets of records of PD, LZ, PF, BS step by step, actually playing it as well on el. guitar as on organ.

    What is more to this concert I don't like sound of percussion, especially foot (dnt know if it's correct word). There is much less power in the drums than in f.e. Made in Japan or other 1972-74 csts. 1984 was better too.

  • PD - I ment DP ;p I hope I don't have to explain other letters :)

  • I knew what you meant, on the rest of them. And a JH back at ya. I saw him once.

    And an SRV.... saw him 5 times.

    Foot.... foot is something you feel by being there, not hear through recorded media.

  • This song is legendary but his voice is terrible

  • Phenomenal song. One hell of a voice. Thanks for posting.

  • a pesar de todo Ian da todo por llegar a las notas que no puede llegar....

  • futebalmakedonia, simple! Get a Strat and replace the bridge and neck pickups with twin coils with coil taps. Hey presto! A Strat that can sound pretty close to a Gibbo.

  • Did Coverdale ever sing this with Purple?

  • Brilliant frontman Gillan,one of the best ever,always talks to the audience,always a sign of a great frontman,and explains the songs,and the stories behind them.i love that.Brilliant vocalist too and very pretty..God bless you Sir..

  • I have to take some of what I said back. The tune is still dramatic and and an excellent live song. Ian does a fine job despite his aging inability to reach 3 octaves.

  • As compared to their original performances; vapid. However, for those who want a blast from the past.. Cool.

    I liked it a lot.

  • demain soir au zenith de toulouse  je vais passer une soirée d'enfer

  • he may not have the same voice but the feeling is still there i love it

  • en mi opinion las estrofas suenan geniales pero el AAAAAAAAAAAAA yo no es el mismo

  • La voz de Gillan ya no era la de los 70...

  • this wants to make me buy a strat, but i still think gibsons have a bit more with the pickups

  • Crazy shit!!!!!!! Love it!!!!!!!!!!

  • blackmore the king of the silver and the gold mountain! blackmore the best!

  • @simo1917 - I agree!!!

  • ay dios mio!!!

    pienso igual que ya no dañe su legado

    menos con esta cancion que es de lo mejor

  • tiiio pero si sigue siendo muy bueno, y sobre todo para la edad que tiene, que los rockeros nunca mueren

  • gillan cantás mal!!! dejá de cantar child in time, no te sale mas!!! en una epoca fuiste genial, ahora ya no! no arruines mas tu leyenda!

    con morse todo bien, aunque no me gusta
