Machine head by
Deep Purple (Musical group)(
Recording
)
101 editions published between 1971 and 2018 in 5 languages and held by 454 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Machine Head contains the mother of all guitar riffs in "Smoke on the Water, " a song that needs no further explanation. The album also features the classic "Highway Star, " which epitomizes all of Deep Purple's intensity and versatility, while featuring perhaps the greatest soloing duel ever between guitarist Ritchie Blackmore and organist Jon Lord. Also in top form is singer Ian Gillan (simply one of the finest singers of his generation, bar none), who explodes with amazing power and range throughout. Gillan lets the band take over on the largely instrumental "Lazy, " which would evolve into an incredible live jam. The plodding shuffle of "Maybe I'm a Leo" shows some signs of age, but "Pictures of Home" and "Never Before" remain vital, displaying Purple at their melodic best. Another tremendous Blackmore riff drives the marvelous "Space Truckin', " a fitting end to one of the essential hard-rock albums of all time
