RELEASE BLITZ - Smoke On The Water (Wayward Sons) by Harper Jackson

Da innamorati della grande #musica oggi non possiamo non celebrare l'uscita di #thedarksideofthemoon dei #pinkfloyd, che veniva pubblicato il 1° Marzo del 1973, proprio mentre i #Queen muovevano i primi passi. Le due band sono collegate in vario modo, ad esempio dalla partecipazione di #brianmay e #davidgilmour alla versione di #smokeonthewater per l'Armenia, dall'amicizia tra #rogertaylor e #nickmason e anche dal fatto che #freddiemercury apprezzava la band. Ma non solo! Inconsapevolmente i Queen e i Pink Floyd hanno anche "realizzato un album insieme" (le virgolette sono doverosissime): quella che vedete nella foto è la copertina di Obscured By Cloud dei Pink nell'edizione del 1978 stampata dall'etichetta Sierra. Se vi sembra che qualcosa non torni, beh avete ragione, perché il disco è quello giusto ma la band ritratta decisamente no! Buon compleanno The Dark Side Of The Moon! #queenforeverblog https://www.instagram.com/p/CpPrCxTPL8f/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Happy Birthday to the legendary Ritchie Blackmore! 🎉🎸🤘 Today we celebrate the birth of one of the greatest guitarists of all time and the founder of the iconic rock bands Deep Purple and Rainbow.

Ritchie Blackmore's story began in Weston-super-Mare, England, where he was born on April 14th, 1945. He started playing guitar at a young age and quickly developed a unique style that would inspire generations of guitarists to come.

One of the most famous songs of Ritchie's career is undoubtedly "Smoke on the Water," which was released by Deep Purple in 1972. The song was inspired by a real-life event where the band's recording session was interrupted by a fire at the Montreux Casino in Switzerland. The opening riff of the song is one of the most recognizable guitar riffs in rock history, and the rest of the song is equally as iconic.

Did you know that the famous guitar riff in "Smoke on the Water" was played on a Fender Stratocaster guitar with a Gibson humbucker pickup? This unique combination of guitar and pickup created the distinctive sound that we all know and love.

Ritchie Blackmore continues to be a major influence on the music industry, and his legacy lives on through his incredible guitar playing and songwriting. Today, he is still active in music, having recently released an album with his band, Blackmore's Night.

Let's celebrate this guitar icon's birthday by listening to some of his classic tunes, including "Smoke on the Water." Happy birthday, Ritchie Blackmore! 🎂🎉🎸

Untitled (smoking buckets), 2018. . Not sure what I was doing or what it means. (if anything) Much of the process for me is going with my gut or acting on a whim even if it doesn’t make any sense at the time and having a look at what I made later. More often than not unintended at the time (but relevant) meaning will come out the work, putting into perspective. . #trusttheprocess #process #buckets #smokeonthewater #everyman #everymanportfolio . #bw #blackandwhite #bwphotography #blackandwhitephotography #blackandwhiteart #bnw #flair_bw #bnw_captures #bnw_life #bnw_planet #bnwmood #bandwart #bandw #bnw ‪#PhotoRTG #fineart_photobw #SPicollectiv‬e (at Mooselookmeguntic Lake) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIlG3qqgBh4/?igshid=16xhtwceq8mbj

Deep Purple és un dels grans grups de rock que tots coneixem, o que hauríem de conèixer. Si més no, ens sona per un dels seus temes més emblemàtics, Smoke on the Water.

Ens situem al 4 de desembre de 1971, al Casino de Montreaux, Suïssa. Deep Purple anava a grabar un disc al Rolling Stones Mobile Studio, equip alquilat a aquest grup. Habent acabat de grabar, durant la nit el grup Frank Zappa and Mothers of Invention va tocar al teatre del casino.

Durant aquell fatídic concert, “some stupid with a flare gun (un estúpid amb una pistola de bengales) burned the place to the ground (va cremar el lloc de dalt a baix)”, cremant tots els instruments de Deep Purple i el Rolling Stones Mobile Studio conjuntament amb tot el Casino de Montreaux. Deep Purple va rendir homenatge a aquest fet amb frases dins el tema i amb el propi títol, Smoke on the Water (fum a l’aigua), ja que el fum es va escampar durant moltes hores per sobre del Llac Geneva, proper al lloc de l’incendi. 

Aquesta cançó va néixer d’una situació molt memorable (lamentablement) pel grup. Però cal destacar que el disc que estaven grabant i que es van veure obligats a acabar en un altre poble dels voltants era Machine Head, que sortiria al 1972 i es convertiria en un dels majors èxits de Deep Purple.
