[ d e e p P u r . p l e ) The Highway Star

Did anyone notice the "Peaches"?

Just a quick note to add to the thorough and accurate review already here: Steve played CSN's "Suite Judy Blue Eyes" opening lick to start his "Riff Raff."

But did anyone notice that in "Smoke On The Water," when Ian sang about Frank Zappa and the Mothers, Roger and Steve played a harmonized unison line from the Frank Zappa instrumental "Peaches En Regalia?" Do they always do that? [They have done this for at least a couple of years. Rasmus] That song is on the Dreg's latest live album, "California Screaming," by the way.

Ian Gillan stole the show: WOW!!!
