Fantastic song from a fantastic album! Glenn Hughes is probably my favourite male vocalist, and I have been lucky to see him live twice in the past few years. The version of this song on the first Black Country Communion album is also worthy of note. Pity the band bit the dust after a mere three albums.

To remain with the Deep Purple "family", Whitesnake's pre-hair-metal albums also deserve some love. Live...In the Heart of the City is a smokin' live album.

Once upon a time, in the 1970s if I recall, while prog was still a genre that actually sold albums, metal hadn't been invented yet and punk was a type of music only played at seedy New York bars by unwashed boys with bad dental hygiene and girls with hairy armpits, there was this thing called hard rock.
 
Now, much of this sort of music was simply four chords, shrieking vocals and a cloud of dust (whether caused by large groups of teens smoking pot or by stage fog machines is neither here nor there); however, there were certainly groups that rose above the flotsam and jetsam, and, standing atop the detritus like rock deities flailing at Strats and Les Pauls, actually recorded some damned good music.
 
And even here some talk reverently of hard rock luminaries like Zeppelin, The Who and Sabbath, but let us look further afield and recognize others from this genre that encompassed everything from the progressively hard Jethro Tull to the flagrantly loud Judas Priest. What are your favorite songs from this wide-ranging category?
 
More cow bell, please. A great album for licking light sockets:
 
 
 
One of my favorite tunes of all time:
 
 
A voice created to drive parents insane:
