Rochmon Record Club Listening Party: Deep Purple – “Machine Head”
March 28, 2019 at 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm
While on a grueling tour schedule late in 1971 Deep Purple, out of sheer will, desperation, and inspiration, recorded an album that has influenced generations of Heavy Metal musicians. With songs like “Highway Star”, “Space Truckin’” and the genre defining “Smoke On The Water” “Machine Head” takes no prisoners. If you’ve got a pulse, from the first note you’re head banging and fist pumping. The band’s classic line up of Ian Gillan, Ritchie Blackmore, John Lord, Roger Glover and the mighty drummer, Ian Paice, defies other bands to keep up.
The Listening Party begins at 7:30 pm with a live audio & video presentation by Chuck Vosganian aka “Rochmon”. A Rochmon Record Club Listening Party is meant to inform and deepen our understanding of the history of the individual performers, the songs and the stories that made this iconic album.
