To people who aren't that immersed in keyboard players' world it might sound strange, but playing a Hammond keyboard is entirely different from playing any other keyboard. There are entirely different techniques to the art, many of them based on playing seemingly dissonant notes, playing legato (letting the tone continue) where a regular pianist/keyboardist would only do a quick tap, using the tone generator's resonance to create various effects, etc. Basically you can spend 10 years learning piano techniques, reading musical score from paper, getting a "feel" for the instruments.. then you start studying Hammond keyboard and throw away three quarters of the stuff you thought you knew, and study for another five or ten years to be a good player. There are rare exceptions of players who have a natural talent for playing in that manner, and those can turn the keyboard into a true Beast - like Jon Lord did.

he's got a good voice ... understatement of all time

One of the greatest band line-ups in rock history, no question

The story behind Deep Purple's song 'Highway Star' is bonkers and really highlights just how good they actually were: They were doing an interview on their tour bus between venues, and the reporter asked them about how they wrote their songs. In response, front man Ian Gillan asked the reporter for a topic (a car was the choice), drummer Ian Paice to give him a beat, and bassist Roger Glover for a bass line. Guitarist Ritchie Blackmore then chimed in that he had a riff he thought would work, and John Lord (keyboard) joined in shortly thereafter. Within 15 minutes, the beginnings of 'Highway Star' had taken shape, and it was ready for performance by the time they arrived at their destination.

One of the 3 big tenors Pavarotti said that Ian Gillan was a force of nature when he sang, You dont need more recognition than that! I grew up and heard Deep Purple, Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin as some of the first rock music...and I have never left it. I grew up in the best time ever music wise! Jon Lord (RIP) on keyboard was also a genius....and guitarist Ritchie Blackmoore was ahead of his time and a brilliant player...and still is. Ian Gillan still sing to this day. This is music history at its finest.

I’d recommend Highway Star, Hush, Woman from Tokyo, and Smoke on the Water. All 4 are completely different but genius in their own right

Don't be fooled by the specific performance, as it was in a television studio with a live television audience and they were actually told that they had to be as quiet as possible so that the performance could be recorded with that primitive setting. But there is other live footage from them at the time that looks a lot more like a regular Rock concert with people just going crazy and stuff. A lot of people when they first see this have that reaction as did i, but the reality is it's a very special situation but we're so lucky to have this footage because you get such good up close footage of them just all totally doing their thing and kicking ass. And the fidelity is great.

Ian Gillian is one of the greatest singers whose ever lived and this band is straight up amazing. They're the progenitors of progressive metal. You won't be disappointed listening to more of their music. As far as guitar and keyboards interacting, check out Dream Theater

Another legacy band. The band is at another level. This where all bands get the influence. Huge library of music that inspired metal.

The bloke on the guitar is no other than the guitar wizard himself, Ritchie Blackmore, a true virtuoso! This is the classic Deep Purple line up: Jon Lord, organ, Roger Glover, bass, Ian Paice, drums, Ian Gillan, vocals, and Blackmore, guitar. Each one of these guys was/is a superbly accomplished musician in his own right with a perfect sense of time; but performances like this one come from practicing incessantly and a love for playing live (no autotune or special effects). Those of us who saw Deep Purple at that time, certainly remember their mastery and loudness.

Deep purple at one time in the 70s were the loudest band in the world, they knocked 3 of their audience unconscious with the sound. I saw them a the Kings Hall Belveiw uk in 1974 and I was deaf for days.

I saw Deep Purple in 1972 and in 1973 very Awesome.

70's bleeding into the 80's music feels like a journey. They go through a whole saga in every song. Def explains the length and breadth (ground they cover in each track) of the songs.
