David Coverdale is my favorite deep purple singer Ian Gillan is good to but he's overrated

As long as there's no hideous "fan club" logo on it I dig it.

Now that's a literally smoking rendition of a tune that live every so often tended to come across as rather insubstantial and seemed more of an individual showcase for the different members' instrumental wizardry than a coherent musical statement.

My favourite version is probably from London '74. That one not only encompasses 'Thus Spoke Zarathustra' and some bars of the Yardbirds staple 'Still I'm Sad' (pre-Rainbow) but also features the cheekily incorporated original intro of 'Bombay Calling'!

@Tokeiihto13 Still i'm Sad is the intro of You Fool No One in the Live in London album...

[Tokeiihto13]

@shotguy1 Yes, you are quite correct*. I wasn't referring to the riff of Blackmore's re-arrangement (which itself is heavily based on the sparse intro of the original) but rather the actual medlody/theme the man in black spontaneously launches into at the 25:17 time mark.

*Although it bears a strong resemblance, I think there are still some subtle differences between the riffing on the intro of "You Fool No One" and the final version Ritchie lay down with Rainbow roughly a year later.

Cheers!

I love Deep Purple and Jon Lord was great and a true Master of the Hammond. But the best to me on the Hammond B3 was Ken Hensley from Uriah Heep.

[Shagofull]

JON LORD!!! THE BEST KEYBOARDIST EVER!!!

[GreggTedde]

@geno059 There were more synthesizers in this period of Deep Purple ;)
