I was hesitant about Steve joining DP when I first heard the news. I didn't know if it would be a good fit. What I didn't know is that all the band members were still hungry to record and try other genres. I was a "snob", having seen Steve several times in the late 70s/early 80s with The Dregs during a time when Steve said he was technically in his prime (speed). However, after they released Purpendicular and started coming out with more new music I grew to appreciate DP even more than I did before.

I first saw Purple do this live when they were still touring on the back end of the Abandon album.  Ian said it was something they were working on for their next album (Bananas).   Fell in love with it instantly.  This is by far my single favorite Deep Purple song of all time.  Been into them for ages, and love a lot of their shit, but I get up for this song more than any other.  iTunes tells me I've played it more than any other Purple song, too.

Was bummed when it was bumped from Bananas, but at least it showed up on the Deluxe version of Rapture of the Deep!  :)

It's only the fans who get into the Blackmore vs. Morse debate, so save it. Ritchie Blackmore has said that Steve Morse is a virtuoso and one of the best guitarists of his generation. Steve cites Blackmore as an early influence. The guitarists who are at this level have lost the "gunfighter" mentality a long time ago and are comfortable with the body of work they have accomplished. That is why G3 Tours work.

this song makes my hair stand on end, and it so beautiful it brings a tear to my eye.

I think Purple just continues to get better with age.

Steve Morse is a fantastic artist, a guitar genius!

I've LOVED Deep Purple for 40+ years. Finally got to see them in 1998. I knew Steve was good but I left the show utterly dumbfounded. All I could say was "Richie Who?". I've been playing guitar for almost 40 years but when I watch Steve Morse play stuff like this I get the feeling, to quote Les Paul, that "I should be selling shoes".

Yep, they are definitely a different creature now, but still a great band.

Saw this when Deep Purple came out to Nashville Tennessee many many years ago. I don’t go to concerts very often but I’m so glad I went to this one. Loved the whole show
