Deep Purple Roger Glover playing Pictures of Home (bass)

[entwistle4ever]

I love this cat. Some people age better than others. I guess it's genetics. Skin type. You can't beat doing what you like to do and being paid for it. Travelling the world. People always glad to see you. Buying you drinks. Women. Sure beats punching the clock on a Monday morning. Pushing paper around all day while the phone rings off the hook. Busting your butt for mininum wage.

Purple swings. They really do. How can you not like them? "Machine Head" lineup is so good. Lawd have mercy. :-))

[HighMomentum1]

Roger Glover is the MAN on bass!!

One of the best bass players of all time in hard rock music.

[SuperSoulBabe]

U No This Man He Is My Aunties Uncle NO LIES!

[fenderbassfan]

Roger's the best!!!! However, that was just the end of the solo. Where's the rest?

[ArpeggioBear]

how the hell is his face is still the same as 40 years ago while the others have grown old

[TheSRalston]

This has got to be my favourite DP song...wonder why Blackmore had one of his strange ideas and didn´t liked playing it on concerts...

[keitho714]

Dang I wanted to see him play his solo on that song!

[GrungeMetalRocker]

Underrated

[nikeby8]

legendary bass player

[mateivornicu]

he looks like the friendliest person on earth! and i bet he is

[BiffChunksteak]

@mateivornicu that is a genuine smile at 0:12 . After all those years his job still makes him happy. No pension plan can beat that.

[NathanOdinson]

UAHSUDhausd Very nice!

[SuperChristianMetal]

I'd swear that Glover is playing that differently than he did in '72. There's a note or two that he skipped. Now I've gotta go back and listen to the original recording..

[MrMuschiato]

Long live Mr Glover and Deep Purple!

[halasalmas]

@MrMuschiato

ja das stimmt

long live ^^

[maxxblade]

Awesome pure awesome!

[33COOLMAN33]

where is this sample from ?

[wwetnazach]

@33COOLMAN33 classic albums

[Sianolord]

si scrive AT no OF

[balltuss2]

Cool video but very short. Wanted to see more of Glover and his solo. 

[sdgtime]

quanto cazzo e scarso roger glover....

[RobyPaice89]

Spero sia ironico...

[sdgtime]

@RobyPaice89 purtroppo secondo me no...... : / glan hughes quello si che era un fottuto bassista......

[titustiti]

@sdgtime Can you please translate in english or in french (I don't understand italian) ?

[sdgtime]

@titustiti i'm talking in italian with roby paice

first time i sayd roger glover is bad, he reply me his disappoint, second time i sayd glen hughes is fucking awesome bassist....excuse for mistakes if they are present

[titustiti]

@sdgtime I like Glenn and Roger. Why do you say Roger is bad ?

[sdgtime]

@titustiti 'cause I think glover is bad.....'cause he can't play bass guitar, like glan hughes, and I don't like music style of glover.... :D

[simo2805]

@sdgtime Di sicuro non è un virtuoso, ma secondo me il suo sound nei Deep Purple ci calza a pennello: linee di basso ottime, mai banali ma neppure eccessivamente ricercate, qualche gradevolissimo assolo ogni tanto, vedi Pictures Of Home e Fireball.

Inoltre da quello che emerge nelle interviste, mi sembra un'ottima persona, che ha saputo tenere insieme il gruppo.

Per me è un grande.

[sdgtime]

@simo2805 per me no...e poi ogni tanto è una parolona...date solo due canzoni è una scarsa percentuale...verbalizzabile più con ogni molto poco al posto di ogni tanto...

[giovannipasinetti]

@sdgtime sei scemo? nemmeno a me piace il fatto che suona col plettro, però nel sound dei deep ci sta perfettamente e sopratutto non è mai banale. e prova a suonarlo un assolo così... non è semplice come sembra con le ritmiche che ha dentro

[sdgtime]

@giovannipasinetti ma cosa? è una cazzata personalmente parlando...

[giovannipasinetti]

@sdgtime fanne una cover, registralo e mandamelo da sentire. questa canzone è fottutamente divina

[sdgtime]

@giovannipasinetti no....1)non ho i mezzi...2)anche se li avessi non devo dimostrare nulla a nessuno a maggior ragione ad uno sconosciuto (rispettosamente parlando eh)...3)che sia fottutamente divina è una tua opinione come è una mia opinione il fatto che glover sia una merda...

[nazzare79]

@sdgtime il basso deve avere groove e melodia, questo è quello che conta, a differenza di tanti sboroni odierni...Glover è sicuramente il più sottovalutato dei membri dei deep purple...per non parlare poi che ha partorito un album capolavoro come "butterfly ball" e di tutti i gruppi che ha prodotto oltre al suo co-writing nei deep purple...dire che è una merda è semplicemente una grossa stupidaggine

[sdgtime]

@nazzare79 mah... io non credo che sia il più sottovalutato, tantomeno un genio o robe simili... a me fa semplicemente cagare roger glover ._. non capisco perché ve la pigliate così tanto per un opinione... .-.

[nazzare79]

@sdgtime perchè non vedere riconosciuto quanto in realtà merita (vedi il mio commento precedente su cosa ha fatto durante la sua carriera) è inutilmente provocatorio...ci sono artisti veramente grandi che non li sento per niente miei...questo non vuol dire che siano delle merde ma che a me non piacciono pur riconoscendo la loro importanza...

[sdgtime]

@nazzare79 ma innanzitutto, che il mio commento sia provocatorio, lo dici tu.. io ho solo asserito che glover mi fa schifo come bassista, punto. Non c'è più nulla da dire.. che glover abbia groove e melodia lo dici tu, io non lo considero un buon bassista.. nei deep purple secondo me, ci sta messo alla cazzo di cane.. punto. Non è che bisogna fare della cazzo di politica per tutto eh...

[nazzare79]

@sdgtime evnirea scrivere che è una merda in un posto di fan è piuttosto provocatorio,ma soprattutto le risposte che dai ma non te ne rendi conto...e poi la politica non c'entra niente...e cmq non va sottovalutato dal punto di vista compositivo e produttivo...poi che non ti piaccia come bassista anche se le mie orecchi dicono che la verità è un'altra ma cmq non credo che l'avessero chiamato dei deep purple e poi Blackmore nei Rainbow se non fosse stato all'altezza...

[ultrakool]

he flips ya the bird at the end. i didn't know he was a pick player

[aeronostes]

From what video this fragment?

[IMaiden89]

@aeronostes Classic Albums: Machine Head, they also do british steel, aces of spades & the number of the beast to name a few, great show

[mnunezper]

@aeronostes is a documentary about the machine head album. It used to be avalaible in youtube, I wonder is it online yet

[tewafiq]

yeah! this is the best bit of the song!

[TrollFredrik]

Smokin'!

[33COOLMAN33]

0:12 nice lick

[ChristopherPaulKing]

I had the pleasure of meeting Roger once after a Deep Purple gig in San Francisco. It was at the in the late 2000's. He went to shake my hand as he was about to sign a album cover. The pen dropped out of his hand and he took his eyes off me. He then said, " Lets try this again, cause when I shake a mans hand, I like to look him straight in the eyes". AWESOME GUY, AWESOME BASS PLAYER!! I will never forget that night. Thank you Roger.

[Zobzon69]

i wanna hear also the beginning of the solo =(

[jkzl1008]

Yeah Roger!!!!! You are still the greatest! Just in cause people didn't know how important the bass is...

[madspaabas92]

The best Bass Solo From Hr Glover

[Seimh]

pick is cool

[monkeycrud]

Always loved this little sole. gorgeous

[username125418]

and pick bass hates you :P

[midnighttilldawn]

He's just being picky.

[axelbest96]

great

[dieyoung80]

ohhh yeah roger

[russia199999999]

the best bassist

[AustralLord]

good, but not even close

[M2SWEDEN]

You fucking idiot that's Deep Purples original bassist. I bet he knows how the song is played.

[AustralLord]

I don't know...

[PercivalDumbledore]

some guys might be faster - more technical ability.

but i stood right in front of the stage right in front of roger glover - that man has got the certain something and nobody will reach it!

[LanciaTurbo]

this man is fucking Ace.

[frankleroux]

He played this solo with a Rickenbacker, he's a great loud bass player like John Entwistle, Chris Squier, Geddy Lee, Greg Lake.

[s22ad]

no it was led zeppelin. it was on whole lotta love i think.."i wanna be your back door man"

[canadadry78]

back door man is a song by the doors AND lyrics in whole lotta love

[s22ad]

so we were both right :) enough said.

[RushAnthem69]

No actually your still wrong... go look at the Doors song lyrics that would actually make sense. Compared to the Zeppelin' ones.... on top of that I think the Doors came out first

[s22ad]

yes i didnt say which one came out first, i just said we were both right. read what i say before you comment..i also said 'enough said' as in..conversation over.

[mjecpa]

Back Door Man is an old traditional blues, which was brought to mainstream by Howlin Wolf and later covered by the Doors.

[lpavletinet]

backdoor man is a song by the willie dixon

[LovingFilmmaker]

I love you, Roger Glover. I want to grace your sheets one day. I bet you'd be my "Back Door Man", Roger. You and Jim Morrison! *kiss*

[s22ad]

back door man..that was led zeppelin lol.

[rockandroll4life1]

@s22ad

THE DOORS.

[alucardio]

[elusive886]

He looks a very nice guy. Saw him live in November 2007, it was a great concert of DP! (rock)

[ljsb123]

[Gyoung1991]

[angelinstructor]

Anyone who is able to post Roger Glover`s brilliant RING OF CLAY? I have been searching for it for ages!-)

[bros90]

Qeé sarpado que es este Roger Glover, sin lugar a dudas, el mejor bajista que tuvo Deep Purple.

[DrunkenPostie]

Why has he left out the really freaky ascending run that comes before that part??

[Fragellant]

All of DP's members are great stars, long live Mr Glover!

[bajostonito]

I love you Roger Glover and I love Deep Purple

[apostoman]
