Highway Star - Deep Purple Cover - GFC - 16th May 2024
Bass & Vocals - Max Mann
Guitar - Sam Coulson
Drums - Brent Gerlitz
"Highway Star" is a song by the English rock band Deep Purple. It is the opening track on the band's sixth studio album Machine Head (1972) and is the fastest tempo song on the album. It is characterised by long, classically inspired guitar and organ solos.
This song was born on a tour bus going to Portsmouth in 1971 when a reporter asked the band how they wrote songs. To demonstrate, guitarist Ritchie Blackmore grabbed an acoustic guitar and began playing a riff consisting of a single "G" repeated over and over, while vocalist Ian Gillan improvised lyrics over the top. The song was refined and was performed that same night.[7] The song first appeared on the 1972 LP Machine Head and remained one of the band's live concert staples, being the set opener even before it was released on any album.
Record World said of the U.S. single release that "This mover has a Led Zeppelin tint to it, and that could bring group back to the top of the pops."[8]
The first live version released, recorded live for German TV program Beat-Club in September 1971, is featured on the History, Hits & Highlights '68-'76 DVD. It is the opening track on the live albums Nobody's Perfect (1988), Come Hell or High Water (1994), and From the Setting Sun… (In Wacken) (2015).[9] The most famous live version is featured on the 1972 live album Made in Japan. The Guardian said, "Blackmore’s playing is like a force of nature on the Made in Japan version; those slashing chords in the intro, and that amazing solo featuring the distinctive neo-classical descending runs, combining the spirits of Bach and Jimi Hendrix."
The structure of the song consists of a 35-second bass/guitar introduction, before the band launches into the thumping opening riff, which soon leads into the first vocals section (0:55). The first two verses are sung, then Jon Lord begins his Hammond organ solo (2:14). This part consists mostly of fast, arpeggiated notes with a late Baroque/Early Classical influenced feel and makes use of the harmonic minor scale. The organ solo lasts for about a minute, then Ian Gillan sings the third verse of the song (3:24). At the conclusion of the third verse, the guitar solo starts (4:04), and lasts for just under a minute and twenty seconds. Blackmore wanted a very Bach-like sound and worked out the solo note by note over the chord progression Dm, Gm, C, A which itself was borrowed from Bach.[11] Then, the fourth and final verse, which in the original recording is simply a repetition of the first verse, is sung, finishing around 6:10. Depending on the version, there may be a 15-second-long exit section before the end of the song. When the song is played live, Gillan has been known to improvise its lyrics, as seen in the official video for the song.[12]
The guitar solo would gain recognition when readers of Guitar World voted it No. 15 in their list of the "100 Greatest Guitar Solos".

👍👍👍😊
Cool tune mate!!!
Well done guys!
Well Done!
Excellent 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
What kind of speakers were in that Victory Cab? They actually sounded pretty good
Wow! Thanks for showing off the versatility of this one. That’s some kind of distortion (even on the video)… so yes, it wobbles!
Desecrated. A guitar like that with a good Floyd Rose and setup should never need this
Best Klon-inspired pedal I have ever used, replaced my Tumnus Deluxe. The voice knob makes all the difference, it can be Klon-like with a mid-bump, or it can be truly flat. Can't recommend it enough. Yes, it is a bit expensive, but it is one of the best-built pedals I have ever used and a lot more versatile than some pedals that cost even more.
Is this an old model? I only see the ones with soft maple body these days
Sounds good mate!!!
Amazing playing, amazing sound.💯💥💫
Hmm… that level knob takes it from Pony Meat to Horse Meat. The “Filly” cheesesteak setting in the middle is likely the sweet spot. Quite frankly, I’m somewhat offended that there are no vegan offerings from PRS.
Is the 25W with a 2x12 loud enough for giging?
Yes

That sounds a little bad
You've been my favorite guitarist for over a decade now and it's do to a large part that you're unrecognized. Your combination of soulful note choices and your ferocious pick attack attrapcted
My phone screwed me on that one. Is there any way I can talk to you in person?

I love this song. So much passion…
Sounds poorly
No interest in this fart nest of an amp
Actually this ia a great sounding amp once you get a feel for How to dial It Up .. i prefer with a humbucker actually … i did feel It was farty for a couple days then found the magic and love It …. Had same challenge with a ceriatone lunch box then simply read the manual explain an instant gratification start point and ya days Of confusion ended and tone was flowing … i had no Joy with this amp cracking All … i set master at 10 with ox and rhe trble volume at 4 Bass volume at 3 then Bass off trble mid noon area .. then a clon clone as a boost .. It sang
Ps - i dislike All That Farty stuff as well
No missed notes, perfect.
Amazing player😊
Thanks so much!
I’ve got 84 in black, great shape.might try top wrap too, thanks
84?! Wow! I love the top wrap, I use 10-46 on a Gibson scale length and the top wrap keeps it feeling loose
Sounds killer
Thanks!
Hi Sam. Sounding awesome as always. As an owner of the THR head just wondering what settings you have it on as it sounds great? 👍🏻
Thanks pal! I’m running both amps of the lead channel with the master and gain up all the way. I run the boost about half way up. EQ is fairly flat, my SG is on the bright side. Reverb is up about half way
@@kingsammyc thanks for the info 👍🏻 Just to be super geeky which tube setting do have on the back? And do you set it to class a or class a/b?
@@axeman14yeah man! I’ve got one on KT88s and the other on 6L6 both class A. It’s on 25watts here, plenty for a little club
@@kingsammyc thanks for that Sam. Sounds killer but I know it’s your playing that is making it sound even better 🤘🏻
What brand of fluid do you use? sir...
Great! what do you think about super vee double locking? I have the blade runner, I want to buy the double locking... you recommend it???
Great little unit! Drops into a regular 6 point strat body really easy. I didn’t like the lock nut that much but you can use a Floyd lock nut instead

Well, I liked the drummer, (even though his tone´s little beastly).
Excellent playing ❤
Great expression👏
Thus is a great sound Sam - even on my phone 😆 How did you record the THR? Agonising over getting the Prophecy or Epi 61 SG or a Gibson SG Tribute. Some say the Prophecy didn't really sound like à SG?
Guitar would sound a little better if you wore matching graffiti yellow socks!
Haha!! I agree
Cool footage Sam!
Thanks man!!
Your a hell of a player, what area you in?
I can’t stand hearing men’s rings hitting the guitar
New song on the spot of my favorite songs list!
Hi Sam.. that a cool guitar you got right there, would you mind telling me about your setup for live performances ? I mean, what kinda amp, cab, pedals you are using, also I like to know what picks and strings you are using, Thanks .. :D
Thanks buddy! I switched my rig up this week. No pedals. Just the Yamaha THR100HD with the matching cab. It’s a 2012 Gibson SG. Ernie ball 10s with a jazz III pick. Thanks for the comment!
@@kingsammyc Ohh wow I think I´ve seen that amp on your channel a long time ago.. 7-8 years ago maybe ?!, I think it sounds great and with many possible settings. Many people are into Multieffects like Helix and Moore with IR´s and use it with no amps and just a Headrush for monitoring your self.. are you into that kinda stuff, pros and cons in your opinion ?
@@HearGear yeah that’s right mate! Personally when I’m playing a club in a trio I would rather have an amp than a helix or something like that. I use my helix a lot for recording or if I have to use in ear monitors. It always makes me a little happier using an amp though haha
@@kingsammyc Yeah.. I have been thinking about getting a multi effect like that and just give a cable or two from my pedal to the houses tech, but you know, i like the amps to, have use Marshall DSL100 head and ENGL 4x12 and a Laney Ironheart 120watt head as a spare, you know what I am talking about when it comes to weight of this items and space it take to transport things like this to a gigg.. holy moly.
Very different for you Sam!
Serving up my usual slop over another blues rock standard 🤣🤣🤣
Joe Bonamassa, Eric Johnson, Gary Moore and SRV in a blender . . . you're awesome sam!
Excellent!!
Why do they use a 1.65 narrow nut on all Squiers? To make sure I spring for a MIM Fender no doubt 😂
Wow! My 6'4" grand mother would have been proud. She really loved Trower and that tune!
I’ve got one of these, a macho man and a fuzzilla from Brown. Coolest pedals I have. They are extremely loud though!
I must be a good pedal if it makes the camera wobble.
Shoutout to Mike Kupris (Become the Knight) for putting me on to this eternal banger 🔥
Hey Sam, you play some awesome blues! Love your version of Freeway Jam too, hell pretty much everything you play is awesome
Beautiful 👏👏👏
