Deep Purple Mark II , the most commercially successful , featured Ian Gillan [vocals] , Ritchie Blackmore [guitar] , Jon Lord [keyboards] , Roger Glover [bass] and Ian Paice [drums]. This formation was active from 1969 to 1973 , and was gathered from 1984 to 1989 and briefly in 1993 , before the friction between guitarist Ritchie Blackmore and the other band members became unbridgeable .

HISTORY OF DEEP PURPLE
In 1967 , Chris Curtis , former drummer of The Searchers , connected the London businessman Tony Edwards , in the hope that he would get a new group he was putting together , to be called Roundabout . They would take turns around the drummer , like a carousel . After the idea was bought by producer Tony Edwards , the first musician to discover it was the keyboardist Jon Lord , fellow Curtis in The Flowerpot Men , where he also played bassist Nick Simper .

It was the late '60s , and Curtis was stuck up to his neck in the zeitgeist. Once, Lord entered the apartment and found the walls covered with aluminum foil. His colleague had redecorated the house to change the mood. On, off , hits the road : Curtis disappeared . The group found a guitarist - Ritchie Blackmore , knew a drummer - Ian Paice - who brought a colleague from The Maze - vocalist Rod Evans . With the departure of Curtis , just the idea of rotation and the band had to change its name . In February 1968 , After a brief tour of Denmark and Sweden in April, in which they were still billed as Roundabout, Blackmore suggested a new name: "Deep Purple", named after his grandmother's favourite song.

The beginning of Deep Purple[1967-1968]
deep purple first albums : shades of deep purple
The first album , Shades of Deep Purple , was released in September 1968 . Stuffed rewrites [ including progressive versions of " Help! " , The Beatles , and "Hey Joe " by Jimi Hendrix] , the album broke the charts in the United States with a Joe South song " Hush " , the first single band . In December of that year , when the second disc Album  The Book of Taliesyn had already been released, they made their first tour in America , watching the Cream . On this tour , besides visiting the mansion of Hugh Hefner , founder of Playboy magazine, the group also found that another reason for his success in the New World came from the name of the band - even then a very popular drug in California .

The Book of Taliesyn Album
 The second disc also featured re-recordings as " River Deep , Mountain High " [hit for Tina Turner] , " We Can Work it Out " [Beatles] and " Kentucky Woman" [Neil Diamond] . The composition " Wring That Neck " [called " Hard Road " in the United States , the violence of the name] survived in the setlist of the group , the extinction of training the following year . Was the vehicle of some of the most inspired solos exchanges between Blackmore and Lord .

In 1969 , Blackmore and Lord were unhappy with the sound of the group. They both wanted to experiment more with volume and power , but considered that the voice of Evans did not accompany the changes . The third disc of the group , called "Deep Purple" , reflects the tension of a band that had their feet on the English '60s rock and head into something that was yet to be created . Under invitation from drummer Mick Underwood , on June 24 , Blackmore and Lord were giving a group presentation Episode Six , whose lead singer [Ian Gillan] former colleague Blackmore had spoken very well. The two members of Deep Purple came up on stage to jam . He started there as tense and creatively decisive month throughout the career of Deep Purple .

Blackmore , Lord and Paice combined a test with Ian Gillan . He took his friend Roger Glover , bassist also from Episode Six . Together , the five recorded the single " Hallellujah " on June 7 . Approved the two , Deep Purple went on to have a double life . During the day , the second training rehearsed in Hanwell Community Centre and at night , the first training was still performing as if nothing was happening . Evans and Simper did not know what was happening until the eve of the opening of Mark II on stage , on July 10 . The situation was so crazy that on June 10, 1969 , Episode Six and Deep Purple performed at dances Cambridge . The Deep Purple eleven presentations made ​​between the choice of new members and the debut of the new phase , the Episode Six , eight. But Gillan and Glover also made ​​four other shows to fulfill the contract with the E6 until July 26 , alternating with the first three shows of Mark II .

The projects that had already occurred , however, continued . The third album "Deep Purple" had just been released in England when the new formation , with its boldest musical proposal , debuted . It was released at a time when the band were starting to grow as performers, both live and in the studio, finding their direction musically. There were some conflicts over whether the band should continue on their rawer, heavier direction. This caused turmoil, which was partially responsible for two of the members, Nick Simper [bass] and Rod Evans [vocals], being replaced.

Jon Lord was also completing his Concerto for Group & Orchestra , to be presented at the Royal Albert Hall with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra on 24 September. On that day , besides showing the new type of composition devised by Lord [linking the languages ​​of classical music and rock] , the English of all social classes met " Child in Time " , also composed in Hanwell . The composition shows all that the new formation brought again from the previous : changes of pace , powerful solos , screaming banshee. The 1969 performance was the first ever combination of rock music and a complete orchestra and has been cited as paving the way for other rock/orchestra performances such as Metallica's S&M concert and Roger Waters's The Wall – Live in Berlin performance.

DEEP PURPLE : LOUDEST ROCKBAND IN THE WORLD
The entire recording history is told in a few words in the song " Smoke on the Water " , the last to be written to disk . Blackmore had created a riff that was not used, then nicknamed " durrh - durrh " . There was no letter. Then came the idea to write about what happened on the disc's recording . Gillan says they were in a bar when Roger Glover wrote on a napkin the song title [meaning " smoke on the water " , a good description of the photograph published in a newspaper following the fire day] . Glover says that the words came to him in a dream and that Gillan replied: " will not roll ; sounds like a song about drugs , but we 're a band that drink ." None of them would bet that more than thirty years of playing " durrh - durrh " all night , such was the success that the song reached . Although it was recorded in December , she only entered the setlist on March 9 , a show on the BBC. This first display consists of In Concert 1970-1972 .

During the show , there was no other sign of wear . In retrospect , the silence of Gillan 's time to sing the verse " the matter what we get out of this " [" no matter what we get out of it "] in " Smoke on the Water " could indicate that all he could take what had already finished .
