Epic. One of the songs I practiced often when I got my Stratocaster at 13 years old. Classic Deep Purple never gets old.

Yes. I’d like to see (or hear) that too. I’m sure it out there somewhere and probably not too hard to find. Frank recorded EVERYTHING from what I’ve read. That’s why his family and Barking Pumpkin can keep releasing “new” material all the time.

Entire Made in Japan album… the solos on Child in Time and Strange Kind of Woman are magnifique!

I love the Leningrad Cowboys cover of Smoke on the Water.

Highway Star is a terrible song to drive to. The cop writing you a ticket won’t take it as a good excuse for speeding.

Personally, I always thought Golden Earing's "Radar Love" was a more appropriate driving song......

Roger Glover’s three-note run into his bassline is one of the most badass moments in all of rock music.

Yeah, Radar Love can draw a citation. You might remember Credence Clearwater Revival’s ‘Playing in a Traveling Band’. Try driving slow to that.
