Deep Purple - Hey Joe (Live 68) (Video)

Deep Purple's audience video of Hey Joe (Billy Roberts cover) during their concert @Inglewood, 18th October 1968.

In this concert, they were opening for Cream, and had an American tour opening for Cream, but after a few concerts were removed from the bill by Cream because they had not passed them, but seemed to have that intention, and this concert (which is the only live recording of the MK1) is a great demonstration.

@PetroASR In these early days of Purple, Blackmore played a Gibson ES-335 almost exculsively. He only switched to the famed Fender Stratocaster about 18 months later.

@oberfour1 Sure looks like it. At 5:02 you can see the edges, though most TVs in '68 were rounded console screens. Unruly TV ears there...gotta give the guy credit for trying and getting this at least. But if so, why was this concert on TV?

I think this was recorded with a camera in front of a television set.

I remember the old black and white TV with the rabbit ears and tin foil flags looking just like this.

I stand corrected, as the Bullet wasn't made yet, perhaps it's a Mustang body or neck then, I'll find out.

[blackster]

not a Strat with tele neck, it was a Fender Bullet.

@PetroASR, When this footage was first on YouTube they had a couple other songs and in one of these you could see Blackers playing a Tele with a Strat neck which he did have at the time.
