Thanks for the overwhelming positive responses on this song. I think it's a testament to the mastery of the musicians in Deep Purple and how a nearly 40 year old song still makes you go "wow". They truly don't write them like this any more.
Bit, I've corrected your Hammond XK-1 in the description. Thanks for the additional info on how you achieved your sounds.
Just for the record, Randy absolutely could hit those high notes. I asked him to NOT do them, because if any of you have heard Randy cut loose, well let me just say if I wanted a school girl to sing this song I would have hired one.
A side note about the slide guitar - The original song has a harmonica solo at that part. None of us play the harmonica so I mimicked some of the harmonica phrasing from the original with the slide and think it worked out well.

Thanks everyone for your kind comments about this song. This was a gas to work with Mark on, as I could tell this song meant something special to him. While I did try and stay somewhat true to the original vocal, some of those notes were just plain crazy and even with my little school girl skirt and pressed white shirt, I just couldn't pull them off, even though I looked cute as a bug!
Mark, I knew in my heart you would really nail this song, mainly because it only contains 3 chords and mostly required you to play only 1 string at a time. Right in your wheelhouse buddy. Nice job.

Thanks Randy, and if anyone's glad it only had 3 chords it's me. Truth be told, I had to punch in the lead one note at a time.
We really should do another song together, just not anytime soon.

Yeah, but I have to pull the duvet up over my head to get any sleep...  . Still. whenever Randy has that Britney 'Hit me baby one more time' outfit on at least you know in advance there's gonna be trouble.

Wow, I think epic is a pretty good description. Great cast of players, great performances and a real fun tune. In my ears I could hear no issues with the mix so I'll just say, great job guys, a superb cover. Man I love that Hammond!

Well this was a pleasant surprise...i loved this song way back then....so i have a few little gripes but not too serious...It didn`t quite have the feel of the original Lazy kinda like you guy`s did it MIDI(which as you know i do) and randy didn`t have that little raunch in his voice like Gillan( sorry Randy you were just to smooth for me) and finally you missed the whole iconic/epic part ...yes that`s right where the hell was the HARMONICA.......
but other than that great job guys.
Whoa.... to you ...oh...earth and sea...

Tony, thanks for checking this one out. Yeah, I love that Hammond too! Zungle, I know what you mean about Marks guitar chops. After listening to him sometimes, I don't know whether to practice more or just quit. Thanks. Alkie, thanks for your comments. As far as I know, the only midi on this is the drums, but I thought they had a good swing to them. As for my vocals, yeah I didn't go for Gillians style for the plain reason the dude was a one of a kind. I tried to do more of a slow build from smooth to a little rougher. I actually tried to do a harp part, but sheesh, that's alot tougher than it sounds. I think you'll agree Mark's slide work there is pretty tasty, and the original harmonica part wasn't that epic anyways ;). Chinchen, thanks man, we didn't set the bar but we've been known to pass out in the parking lot of a few. Randy

Well played!!! Ironically enough, I had been exploring Deep Purple on Itunes and Youtube just last night, and bought a few tunes, including this one. You guys did a fantastic job, it has the same "feel" as the original, well done.

Anything with a B3 is a winner. (I lived and played music in the 60s).
Of course I knew going into this that it would be good, and I was not disappointed. A welcomed flashback. Good vocals too.
Well played well mixed from my view point. Even on my CWS, it's hot!

I don't know how I missed this, sorry I didn't see this sooner.
Great stuff. Always good to hear anythign with rockin' Hammond. That brings back a lot of memories of my early road days, I miss that sound.
Cool work all the way around guys. Classic! Very enjoyable, all of it.
