Deep Purple : Burn : 1974 - 50 years on In this video I talk about the album, hearing for the first time and going to see them on the tour that year. I also go through the different versions I have, including the tour program, songbook and suggest which version you should go for. The first concert I ever went to. B'ham Odeon May 74. Deep Purple supported by Elf. I was 15 and was lucky to go on the 2nd night when Blackmore sacrificed his guitar (he was in a mood the night before). The Burn album is in my top 10 albums of all time and the title track contains all the ingredients required to explain why purple were so popular. 1. Guitar riff from the gods - tick 2. Band come in after riff to add dramatic affect - tick 3. Drummer playing like keith Moon over verses - tick 4. Sci Fi lyrics that include a line like "the people laughed until she said Burn - tick 5. Song returns to point 1 at every given opportunity - tick 6. Bridge with soaring vocals from Glenn Hughes - tick 7. Jaw dropping neo classical guitar solo with awesome tone - tick 8. Hammond C3 organ solo - tick 9. Return to point 1 again - tick 10. Dramatic crash ending no fade -tick CD Best version remaster from 2004 Ritchie Blackmore between 74 - 76 was on fire.
