Deep Purple' MACHINE HEAD: Ian Gillan (vocals); Richie Blackmore (guitar); Jon Lord (keyboards); Roger Glover (bass); Ian Paice (drums). Recorded in Montreux, Switzerland in December 1971. From the heady intro of "Highway Star", written in a couple of hours on a bus between shows, to the lazy beat of "Space Truckin", Machine Head would have remained one of the classic line-up's (Glover, Paice, Gillan, Blackmore, Lord) great albums. However, the hand of fate took them to Montreux at the same time as Frank Zappa's Mothers Of Invention, and their witnessing of the burning down of the Casino, immortalized in "Smoke On The Water" with Blackmore's plaintive riff, studied and dedicated to memory in a thousand guitar classes, and Gillan's simple retelling of events, elevated them and their record to legendary status.
