hallelujah

hey, hickey -- ever heard thisun? i usedta have it on a single! the first, kinda uninspahrd, outing by the mark II deep purple, it makes me wonder whether blackmore, lord, et al. weren't pandering to mr. jesus christ superstar or something. nice blues gtr from ritchie, anyway. evans and simper didn't even realize they were already shitcanned when they cut the deep purple alb -- a typical purple methodology, but they still hadda have product to release. the mind kind of boggles when one realizes that by the time of machine head, they'd only been a band for three yrs, yet had released seven albs, most recorded in a matter of days. now baby, that _is_ rock'n'roll.

Yes, yes I have. I agree that it's still a pretty good song. Wondered how it would have sounded processed through Evans and Simper...

Don't ya wish you still had some of those original albums?
