  • @Boogenhagen100 Not sure Ian Gillan had this much vocal support in 1990 :-) but it's definitely a different version than what was released on "Made in Japan" - or at least all three copies I've owned over the years

  • @ipykipyk A few years back a live set comprising all three gigs in Japan. This might be from one of the other two gigs.

  • Comment removed

  • @ipykipyk There's a CD "Live in Japan" which has all three concerts in full that were recorded for the Made in Japan release... it's got to be one of the other two - it says it's the one on the 17th... the one on Made in Japan is dated the 16th

  • non è made in japan...

  • @mahagga, the album "Live Dates" from Wishbone Ash is a very great Album too !!!

  • ME FUMÈ TODA LA YERBA DEL MUNDO CON ESTOS TEMAS!!!!! NÙNCA MAS VOLVÌ A VIVIR ALGO PARECIDO JAJAJA AHORA ,CON 50 AÑOS SOLO COCA-COLA JAJAJJA VIVA DEEP ETERNAMENTE !!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is a Classic School

  • ¿dode como puedo conseguir el disco?

  • er is geen Mens die mij kan stoppen de Waarheid te vertellen, Zarija Clabatti

  • questa non è l'originale di made in japan!!!!!!! ma perchè??????

    cambia il piccolo intro di organo

  • @XAVUTDALLAVETTA Tienes razón, o al menos no es la versión que yo conozco de ese álbum. Se oye distinto en varias partes a lo largo de la canción.

  • best live rock album ever

  • I like this version better than the actual mij. Richie's playing is just more raw and more rock n roll to me

  • It's not the original "live in japan" !!!!!!But it's good too.

  • richie blackmore maid  japan rocks

  • it sounds nothing like the made in japan version, its like someone ripped the guts out of it

  • Not from the original "Made in Japan" but great nonetheless, thanks!!

  • @MsSpawn1234

    Yea definitely not the original. It sounds to me like it's a mix of the original song with cover keyboards and guitar.

  • My favourite album. Gave it a real flogging when I bought it

  • Good pure rock music

  • 9 people need no mouse

  • Wrong track. This is not the Highway Star from the Made In Japan album. Totally different intro. The Highway Star has the Marshall-crapping-out and pick scrape at the beginning.

  • @KazKylheku This is from the 'Live in Japan' release, which included the songs on Made In Japan, plus the rest of the songs over the three dates that were originally compiled into Made In Japan. So it's basically the three concerts. (there's much more info on wikipedia)

  • I don't know if you could have a 10 greatest rock albums of all time without including M.I.J..

  • Probably bonus track or something, obviously this is not from the original M.I.J.It is another performance.

    

  • @quakesraw

    Right on!

  • Right on!

  • i like i like

  • I can't play the live version of this song while driving on the freeway,or I'll wind up with a ticket!!!! Great tune!!!!

  • 5:00 la locura maxima

  • @93balex yeahH !!!!

    

  • every one who says this is not made in japan listen to me

    Deep Purple Live in Japan 1972 are three concerts

    15 august 1972 osaka, 16 august 1972 and 17 august 1972 tokyo and the "Made In Japan" album is a mix of the best tracks recorded over the three nights and this version is of the last concert (the one in tokyo) the highway star of made in japan was recorded on 16 august 1972. made in japan is just a mix . the original 3 concerts called Deep purple Live In Japan,Made In Japan is the mix!!

  • @RubenVW95 Whether it was made in japan on not is not the issue, it was not the release that was on the Made in Japan album. Got it? I have an original album and this isn't it!

  • @RubenVW95 Dude, it is common knowledge that these tracks are not actually from concerts in Japan. Do your homework. There are plenty of videos on here where the band explains this fact.

  • I agree. Richie Blackmore and this live echo was prevalent on the original mix. This is good, do not get me wrong; but the original was superb, great. With Richie and teh WHOLE band just banging away. And that is NOT the original JOn Lord organ solo!!!! He was a master at these jazz-y jumps, and playing his organ liek a percussion instrument (he learned that last bit from Keith Emerson)

  • This is not from Made In Japan ...it's missing the dynamic guitar chords Blackmore added at the beginning of the song. Go back and listen to the original and you will hear what I'm talking about.

  • deep purple - my first concert - '73 - awesome!

  • Cosa asi...

  • you're a number one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • It's from LIVE IN JAPAN triple cds

  • Why can't we just hear the original Made in Japan on Youtube? This is ridiculous!

  • @jeffreygaudreault

    because the guy who uploaded the video has uploaded every mp3 file from the live in japan 3cd set

    15 august,16 august and 17 august live in japan 1972 and the band listen to al the tracks and found that highway star of the second night was the best and that one they putted on " made in japan " so if you want to hear that track search for " Deep Purple made in japan 16 august 1972 highway star "

  • I cant believe google pulled 'ledzep69man's original version of this. Youtube has become a corporate suck up... shame!

  • Not the original cut from the MIJ album. Must have been pulled from another date on that tour. The original MIJ double album was comprised of music from three shows. Either the mix was't as good or there are lots of missing guitar fills on this cut.

  • get the origanal versions of this album back on you tube

  • This is not the Made in Japan-version, but it's equally good, I think. That 1972 Japan tour must have been awesome.

  • kręci co....

    co dziś kręci w kraju.. nic

  • in den 70er war ichinHolland und hatte einen schweren unfall, ich hatte highway star über den kassettenrekorder gehabt un zwar laut. ich lag auf der Motorhaube von meinem ehemaligen Opel Commodore, und der notarzt sagt ich wäre TOT . aber ein irrtum ich habe bis jetzt immer noch glassplitter im gesicht die mit der zeit vin selbst sich durch diehait drücken. aber dennoch Hiway star ist mei vavorit

  • This is the ONLY version of Highway Star that really matters. DP were at the top of their form here!!

  • i remember playing the shit out of this album way back when

  • GOOSEBUMPS!!!

    nothing from today even today comes close to this song...

    all the shred guitarists can go fuck themselves, they're only half as good

  • The Best!!!!!!!!!!!!  Sensacional

  • otto persone a cui non piace?

    e un affronto alla musica

  • Verdens bedste band nogensinde-best band in the world

  • These are not the original tracks from the made in japan album, and not as good btw. The vocals and solos are much better on the originals.

    Why is everyone posting these second choice versions? And where are the original tracks? Damn hard to find on youtube!!

  • questa non è la versione di Highway Star che io ho sentito in Made in Japan!

    Significa che ci sono in giro due versioni diverse?

    Anche Gillan non è lui! Pare sfiatato! e Blackmore s' è scordato il pezzo!!

    Ma com'è possibile?

    Baci a tutti

  • I love it.

    LOL it's like they're about to play God Save The Queen in the end.

  • I BOUGHT THIS ALBUM TWICE WHEN I WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL.

    (SENOR ROTTEN/PHIL.VIOLATORS)

  • a little different from "Made in Japan", but it fuckin' rocks !!!

  • @danstrikeeagle Nothing quite like that rendition, isn't it? This one is groovy but that one will be forever impressed in my memory (note by note!)

  • check a song by a band called blues magoos ....the most famous of them, i dont remember the name..

  • FORSE se non è il piu bello disco live di tutta la storia del rock questo è uno dei piu belli..............lunga vita a dei geni come questi

  • NOTHING CAN EVEN TOUCH HIGHWAY STAR!!!

  • FUCK YEAH!

  • @LisergicoRojo Smoke Pot!! Woohoo. I got a bonner.

  • 8 people were browsing for colour themes...

  • @KayzaTotem

    HA-HA-HA-HA... NICE ONE.

  • Help! I'm looking for the live version of Black Night that I originally heard on the B side to one of the singles. I can't find it anywhere on You Tube. I'm sure it's on a version of Made in Japan that I had. Gillan starts it with...'Here We go...this is a song called Black Night....Hey..! If anyone can find it and post it, I'd be really grateful.

  • @whitemaremma Check the DP album "Power House". If I remember correctly, it's the 5th song......

  • @blackmore7777fan Thanks so much for that. I'm surprised no one has uploaded it to You Tube as it's the best live version IMO. :)

  • ...and then Heavy Metal was born.

  • i sing this song while im driving thinking im a badass...

  • Lo mejor de la Vida!!! amo ese solo de guitarra!

  • 8 idiots have disliked this video

  • FUCK YEAH!

  • FUCK YEAH!

  • not from Made In Japan. Not bad. But not Made In Japan. 

  • @Sammo163 there was a recent boxset release called "Live in Japan" which contained the full sets from all three concert dates they recorded....maybe this is one of the new released ones....musically it's nearly the EXACT same, really shows how tight a band they were.

  • perfect music while driving fast! 

  • the riff is very good

  • Dudes... The artists nowadays shouldn't make music like this...

    ...

    That's our job

  • Now this is real rock music.

  • Slightly different from the live version that was first published 1972. Same intensity and ballsy drive.

  • Great, I love HIGHWAY STAR of the original member in 1972.

    from Japan, Niigata city.

  • That is pure MAGIC at 1:51

  • This version isnt from the Made in Japan that I had....LP or 8track.

  • This performance was from the Tokyo show on 8/17; the version on "Made In Japan" was recorded the night before in Osaka. There is talk about remixing and repackaging the 3 concerts in their entirety for the 40th anniversary of the 1972 tour...but just talk at this point.

  • @wingman1962

    wow nice info!

  • 70>>>80,90 and today.

    And i'm 18 ;)

  • Best Highway Star made live man.... AWSOME!!!! JUST BONA FIDE AWSOME!!!

  • John lord!!!

  • Wish I had lived in the 70s... :((

    The music of today is the biggest shit... I would give everything to hear a concert of 70's deep purple, but it can't be =(((

  • and i am gonna die on that day september 5 2321...some dude predicted from reading my hand...

  • if you know your purple this is the best version but on the disk it is cut you need to get the vinyl what a record.....................

  • This is the best version in my opinion!

  • I have Made in Japan on vinyl and this is not the version that's on it.Ritchie's solo is so much better than this one.

  • Not that it matters but I don't think this is from made in Japan at least the copy that I have on my ipod. Richie's solo is different.

  • Can we have everything louder than everything else....quality

  • Este es el mejor y la mejor Banda del Mundo Deep Purple,el mejor tema Highway Star ,la mejor voz del mundo Ian Gillan,el mejor guitarrista Ritchie Blackmore,y la aplanadora bateria de Paice ,Lord tocando como si estuviera en el Infierno y Glover acompañando y cerrando el circulo Magico.Increible.-

  • This is my driving anthem.

  • This genaration of the DP was the best, I think!!

  • this is not made in japan

  • @Moyolito1994 right !!!!

  • @Moyolito1994 they call it this cause it was a recorded live at Japan. Originally they did not want to release it to the public but somehow it was released and went to platinum in a week.

  • @Moyolito1994 Yup I think you're right, the solo doesnt start this, nor does the song

  • Sorry this is not the Highway Star that I have on MIJ 'cause I can still play the solo on that particular cut which was recorded in Osaka, Japan. May this one is a cut from a different venue.......I still have the original 2 set vinyl that to me is priceless! But anyhow Ritchie smokes on this one but I still prefer the one on my vinyl. Tnx for sharing!

  • @benchmat LOL For You

  • not the orig'l MIJ i bought 26 years ago.

  • @ALAB69ERS LoL

  • very good ,the best Purple album!!

  • awesome...I was just getting born the same day !!!

  • @miamigroove hope your mum was a purple fan

  • @miamigroove Me too, Bro! August 17th, 1962 here. I still have this album to this day. Sounds better than any CD version of it ever wiil.

  • Desde que escuche esta cancion , este disco , esta banda, soy adicto al Rock

  • to omt>>>> same, but I do find the 'CD' version much better. Maybe my turntable needs updating. :-), but WHAT AN ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • at 5.25 Richie smokes them strings thats the fastest i ever heard him lick

  • The best live album I know.

  • Comment removed

  • okay people i am a little confused everyone says that this song is not from made in Japan. But I bought this CD 5 years ago and this was in the album made in Japan so why is everyone saying it isn't from the original album? Please Explain?

  • @italianpizzaboywho there is a 3 CD set that has all three concerts in their entirety... Highway Star on the LP was from the 16th... this one is from the 17th... of course there are subtle similarities, but the solos are different which make it obvious. the concerts on the 15th & 16th I believe were even at the same place too, so acoustics and such would even be similar. (The 3 CD set is lso called 'Live in Japan')

  • @italianpizzaboywho I think what is meant is that the original 'Made in Japan' vinyl had a definitive version of Highway Star on it. The subsequent CD versions have had other versions. I'm no expert. This version does sound different to the original that was on the vinyl record from 72. Maybe it's technology?

  • yo los escuche caset en el 1981 y hasta la fecha los sigo escuchando, bbc..

  • my favourite version!

  • Comment removed

  • amazing!!!

  • ...never heard this version...always nice to hear something different, but i wanted to listen to the Made In Japan version..change the video title..folks are gettin pissed off with being mislead.

  • creo que este ha sido uno de los mejores discos en vivo grabados, y esta rola, una de las mejores de ambos discos. Excelentisimo grupo de rock (de rock verdadero!!!)

  • One OF the best live played songs

  • this could be an out take from those live sessions over 3 days, the misinformation notwinstanding, still a good guitar solo, and I too grew up learning those leads ,fills, and solo's way back when.................or it could be from some foreign box-set, or really from anywhere, any boot..........................­......

  • This isn't the original Highway Star version that appeared on the Made In Japan album back in the day. I don't know where it came from but I had that album and played the crap out of it and I know all the parts of the Made in Japan version by heart. This aint it!

  • @BloodStarr

    the made in japan album

    is a mix of the best tracks from 3 concerts 2 in osaka and 1 in tokyo

    an the highway star you mean is the highway star from teh second night in osaka and this one is from the last night on tokyo ;)

  • @RubenVW95 Pardon me, but there is only one "Made In Japan" and only one Highway Star from the Made In Japan album. No one has any business throwing the Made In Japan album cover above this version of Highway Star when its clearly NOT the one from the Made In Japan album. Its fraudulent.

  • @BloodStarr yes there is one made in japan

    but there were 3 shows in japan 15,16,17 august

    and this is the best highway star from the 3 shows

    the other 2 are on deep purple live in japan that album contains all the songs that were played over the 3 shows

  • @RubenVW95 Good. You agree that there is only one Made In Japan, Highway Star. You think its the best version from those dates and so be it. But its not honest to put the Made In Japan album cover up over this song and claim its from the Made In Japan album when it clearly is not. I was expecting the Made In Japan one, not this version. It was disappointing because its a clearly inferior version. That's probably why they didn't use it this version on the album. This isn't your channel is it?

  • Wow- I got this album on vinyl in 1973 when I was 13 years old. I grew up with Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and Alice Cooper. Many steering wheels since then have suffered damage from those bands via the riffs the greatest bands in rock have played since then. 70's rock. If you didn't live it you really just don't know.

  • uauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu 

  • created in heaven

    made in paradise!

  • N'1!!!

  • they may argue if LZ is better than DP, and so on.. fair enough... but clearly no other band is as good as DP in gradually entering instruments, one after one, into what eventually becomes a fantastic unison performance of the band in whole!... check the Smoke on the Water, and this very song, of course!...

  • NO BAND IN THIS WORLD, SHOWS LIVE SUCH A CLASS!!!

  • In my opinion (and that of MANY others!) Made In Japan is the finest rock and roll live album ever released. For me, aside from hearing Smoke On The Water on an AM radio station when I was in Alaska for the summer that I could hear from Seattle
