For me, Ritchie Blackmore along with Toni Iommi are the inventors of metal guitar riffs.
I turned this way up to fool my wife into thinking it was me playing guitar. But she asked who was playing guitar

kinda but not really. yes, he didnt really have many fx pedals such as wahs or phasers or flangers or anything like that, but he definitely had his tricks. his Marshall Majors were heavily modified, he had a modded Hornby-Skewes treble booster and an Aiwa reel-to-reel tape recorder, which he would plug his guitar onto the mic input and then the amp on the phone output, having the signal run through the tape recorder's preamp, thus boosting the signal and giving him a fatter sound. that, together with his treble booster and his modded, fire-breathing Marshall Majors were the secret to his sound.
Big fat tires and everything.

No doubt the amp mentioned in my previous post
Had the absolute pleasure of seeing Blackmore and Deep Purple in 1974. Even with the horrible sardine can accoustics from that Philly Spectrum metal roof ceiling it was a bucket list item at age 15. Even though I still like Led Zeppelin just a little more than Deep Purple, trust me, Deep Purple was better live than Zeppelin.

What a guitarist - What a sound. Just naturally brilliant, to create a solo in this song like he did. It is still my favourite solo from the whole Classic Rock era. I have seen Purple with Steve Morse, I have played this solo and taught it to students. He was brave playing single notes under the organ solo, he played outlandish chords on the intro, he had style, stage presence and incredible musicality. The vinyl LP of 'Made in Japan' has a grunt and menace completely lacking in the CD version. Wow!
Even this extracted guitar part sounds excellent.

A guitar player who has launched a thousand careers in music and millions of imaginations in fans. There may be better guitar players than he, but not many who have accomplished what he has.

Recorded in the late 1971 in the grand hotel in montreux it was the turningpoint for deep purple.... after touring, giging, recording the band needed a break and produced one of their best album you can imagine. So much energy in songs and music. Blackmore wrote a good solo... mozart vs arpeggios. A milestone in rock history... no one did before, so he was a superb guitarplayer away ahead of his time... fast fingers and a good moody feeling, compaired vs phsychal finess and creation. Thank you

And his stunning work on Made in Japan Good reminder pal
Blackmore's style always stood out for his sheer physicality; he's always really digging hard into the strings. That combined with his picking precision defined his unique style and sound to me.The fact that there is very little distortion here adds to the punch, which adds to to DP's patented driving rhythm. The sound here is also very compressed, and has the sound of the speakers occasionally bottoming out. And Strats I've heard thru a Marshall Major have a snarl on the bridge pickup that gives me shivers.The solo is a great example of the singing quality of the Strat neck pickup also demonstrated by Hendrix & SRV. The guitar sound on Machine Head always struck me as "polite" compared to the live Made in Japan, which was more distorted and balls-out. The grinding B3 organ added necessary thickness and drove the entire sound right out the door.

And I saw dozens of top bands including Zepplyn, Stones, Kansas, Foreigner, Cars, James Gang, Foghat, Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Black Sabbath, Bad Company and many others during the glorious 1970s rock era. No gimmicks, no added sound effects, just raw bluesy hard rock! Who had better hand speed playing those solos than Richie? No one! I think Page was slightly more talented but nobody had Richie's quickness.
Ritchie is a Genius Guitarist and he will always be. His way of playing and sound are just incredible. God bless!
I love how you hear John and Ian cut through at quiet parts. John was at the opposite end of a long hallway with the Hammond and Ian had his drum set up at a T-junction about midway between Richie and John. You can find tons of pics showing the hallway inside the original vinyl gatefold; especially shots where you see the drums jutting a bit into the main hallway.
This is gold! Could listen to just his guitar playing alone for hours.

Marcos Rainier de Ritchie Blackmore influenced more guitarist than anyone. First feedback Guitarist. Brian May said before he was in Purple he was Hendrix before Hendrix and no one was playing stuff like Ritchie and was amazed by Blackmore' in the early sixties say where did he get that from. Ritchie the first true Metal Guitarist and Speed Guitarist. also on Kill the King on Rainbow Rising he really with Powell did the first Trash licks. And no one out so much original music and he never played the same licks on any songs. It's like Eddie Van Halen did the same box licks over and over. I was at Monsters of Rock in Memphis and the first song was Southern Night's and Half way through the song Eddie's guitar went out. If I remember correctly it was a cordless and while Eddie was having a temper tantrum at his roadie's and Sammy picked up his red guitar and actually was better than Eddie and Eddie was technically great but had no feel. When Blackmore hit the first lick you knew it was him only Santana Johnny Winter and Stevie Ray Vaughn had that original feel for it. And I have always said Guitarist should play like Janis Joplin sang.

Keyboard played a huge part in this song as well as many other DP songs. But it would sound different isolated also. They sound superb when all blended together !

Wow! He harmonized the solo with another solo! Kind of like Tony Iommi! That's pretty f. cool! There are like two solos at the same time, counterpoint mastery!

Genius! Perfect tone! The right hand is magic! Long live master Blackmore!
Blackmore is amazing great tone and style😎
the precision, no loops
Listening to the crispy buzz is like heaven.
He plugged his guitar into a reel to reel tape recorder....using it as a boost/ preamp....there are pics from the 70s showing that he kept it in full view of the audience.....

Ritchie started using the Aiwa reel to reel in 1974, three years after this was recorded.
Machine Head forever!
That LEAD BREAK always floors me. The way recordings were done back in my day. Classic! 😎
Brings back memories. So solid. No punching in solo. Awesome!
What marvelous tone, hearing this isolated adds multiple levels of appreciation ontop of what was already a respect beyond most. GENIUS.
Sexy Ritchie. Also love the cool boots. Thanks for making this video. Have wanted to hear only his playing for years without the rest of the band. Such a great video. The greatest guitarist of all time.
It's moments like this you realize how over distorted most rock guitarists are nowadays.

Great solo in the latter part of the track "Highway Star" by the one and only Ritchie Blackmore!
Excellent! My favourite driving song. In all these years I've never heard it with just the isolated guitar track. Brilliant playing as usual for Ritchie. You don't always hear his rhythm playing because it's mixed together with Jon's keyboards and Roger's bass. I'd love to hear some other DP songs like that, or some Rainbow songs.
I was about 14 just starting to play guitar when this came out. Was my go to inspiration because of course it totally rocks. But oh, how I labored to duplicate what I thought was him playing in harmony all at once. I had no concept of multi tracking in 1972.
So simple and yet so powerful
Stunning! Mesmerising!! EXCITING!!!we're there,. Picking up speed, round those bends, mercilessly, overtaking, on this fantastic, sounds ape biting, fiery, AWESOME!!!!
Wow, this is amazing. Even the part where he is playing backing guitar to the start of Jon Lord's solo is amazing. His right hand plectrum action is spotless as usual. Thank you for posting this. If I could be 10% as good as Blackmore ... I would be a great guitarist.

You are f*cking joking right? :o) I've known this track for decades and finally getting to hear it uncovered is a shock, man his playing is awful, just listen to the timing! Sure, it was at the infancy of rock but check out the ending, its abysmal especially for a session player. I know children who'd blow him away completely these days. I love Blackmore but you really can hear that Pace sets the pace.

@ Prince Westerburg. Comments like this are why so little good music is being made these days. This idea that perfection is required is the "big lie. " Good luck to those "children" you know who are so impressive to you. Could they have written this song? So many guitarists are playing what amounts to "run-on sentences" with no space, no breathing, no feel. It's a compromise here sir. He was clearly happy with the" entire band take" verses just his own guitar track. These backing tracks were recorded live as a band. Music is not a competition. Having an "Identity" is the Holy Grail and Blackmore has that.

Thanks again for amusing me. Who are these children that you say you know and who you claim can blow Blackmore away? Perhaps you could give us the links to their web sites? Moreover, perhaps you might be good enough to record yourself playing these guitar parts for Highway Star and then upload them and send us the link ... so that we can listen to your playing and judge for ourselves whether or not you are qualified to judge Blackmore's outstanding playing.. Though I won't be holding my breath eh? Chortle.
The attack on those notes - stunning
wow..that palm muted section under John's organ solo is mind blowing.( 02:00 ).
Good Lord man!! Sense of rhythm from Hell!! The man is a fucking machine!!! Usually these isolated tracks make me see that my guitar hero's are at least a little human....not this one. It really makes me want to burn my guitar.

kangooroo1 I agree The solo on Highway Star and Child in Time from Made in Japan stands out as the two greatest solos ever recorded live. But am sure people will disagree with us. It's really subjective but I think anyone would be hard pressed to find one better.

That harmonized part that runs into the fast run in the solo... just pure genius. Certainly it ignited the gold rush for speed that would result in Y. Malmsteen's Rising Force 10 years later. Recently I found that by 1970 Joe Walsh was already doing great things on James Gang too, listen to "The Bomber" and the way he used stereo pan and other effects. That's brilliant.
Thank you. I find it absolutely inspirtional. Sounds natural, full of life and feeling.
