You asked, Superblonde. I have spent a few weeks now watching many shows on an Amazon Fire app called “Tubi”. Its free, no interruptions except a few commercials during each. Last night a documentary done in 2014 about the Wacken Open Air festival in N. Germany. Title is Wacken. Lots of decent variety of shows. Machine Head interviews of Ritchie, Ian, Jon and Ian about recording the album in Montreux. For years read jounalists b.s. articles this cleared up all that nonsense. Its a series called Classic Albums, by Filmrise, which they have a bunch of these and something for everyone. Hollies, Who’s Next, Beatles, Nirvana Nevermind, Judas Priest Dream Deceivers, Damned, Sex Pistols, Bowie, Maiden, U2, Dead Kennedys, Peter Frampton, Amon Armouth, Dylan, Allman Bros, Peter Gabriel, Motorhead, Jeff Beck, Vans Warped Tour, Megadeath Rust in Peace live, Inside Metal: the rise of LA Thrash has Slayer, Megadeath, Lars/Metallica, etc tons of interviews. One doc had a collection of Eric Clapton TV interviews all together over the years. All seems to be stuff I have never seen on Youtube. Thin Lizzy Rocker on the loose, Turn it up (guitar doc), Stones HD live in Hyde Park 50th Anniversary (well produced btw), etc. Well worth the time to get a cheap fire device just for this app alone. I have not explored any paid Prime services so no idea of what other apps are out there, but this seems to have enough for a few months. Usually I find channels are spotty on Rock Documentaries before. So this was a pleasant surprise. Sure they might be older, but I watched my 300 concert DVD’s like from Eagle Rock years back and these all seem different and newer.

Classic Albums has a Youtube channel, but trailers only it seems. Tubi has a bunch of full shows.

wow great i will check it out. funny mentioning blackmore, because just this week I watched this great blackmore documentary on youtube (pirated posting I am sure). maybe you’ve seen it already? if there was one guy who should have stayed in metal it would be him.. the transition to pop rock, then classical.. i mean its his choice as an artist but a real loss for metal.

I will watch this. Thx. You might go listen to his entire catalog of work. Tons of great riffs, some of the best ever written.
Yeah, he could have done more, but his guitar on Machine Head and Made in Japan I heard on LP at a neighbors house, that got me away from transistor radio Top 40 and hooked on FM Rock. I liked his stuff and him first before Clapton, Page, Beck, Gilmour, etc. But Alice Cooper’s Schools Out that was my first purchase. Jeeze I was listening to it last night. The arrangements for the time were great. Public Animal #9, Blue Turk, My Stars.
Seems like I read Ritchie became bored with Rock. Though I read he was happy to make money off of his Rainbow hits like w Graham Bonnet “Since youve been gone” and “All night long”.
He was passionate about Renaisance music of and mentions listening to it always. Ritchie has traditionally been somewhat silent w the media/press, at least until his Blackmores Night gig with his wife Candace Knight. Until youtube I never saw him interviewed, so they all interest me. I read way back in my youth an article is Circus or Creem and As I recall he said he wouldnt sign autographs and tear up the paper a fan handed him. He was portrayed as anti-fan by those writers. Who knows if true. Ian Gillan and him didnt get along supposedly, I read he quit because of him forgetting lyrics. If you have seen the Cal. Jam concert he attacked and damaged the TV camera. That cost the band $$ to fix.
His talent as a classical cello player helped of course too. Jon Lord and him did those great dueling solos like in Highway Star. I watched DP in that Wacken doc. last night, I just don’t really like Steve Morse doing his solos. He changes them. Watch Wacken, you might agree. Unlike Vinnie who replaced Schenker in UFO, and does a great job, I dunno Morse imo while a genius player he could do something else. His solo album was great btw.
The Coverdale and Blackmore era was great too. Stormbringer is a great album. So is Burn. Listen to them. Ritchie even says he liked them. Made in Europe too, I really like that live album. The 85 reunion I was fortunate enough to see them live w Perfect Strangers was also great w Gillian. I missed their early gigs (only 12-14 years old) when they came and played the Auditorium/Arena, which when I was 15 started going there. By High School he had left DP started Rainbow and RJD entered (saw them) and “Come taste the band” was released w DP.

SB that Blackmore documentary was the best. Never knew aboutbit. Really… wow. All these years now, since all info I read first time on limited interview pieces here and there, I had no idea it was out, and his story from him direct no journalists. Thanks! Glad to see all the other guitarists input. Gene Simmons complementing and saying his thing was surprising. Lukater, Vai, Satch wow. Nice.
I didnt know the arrest thing, never read about that.
Surprised Jim Ladd even is in it. I really liked his shows, like his headsets shows and listened to him from many years 70’s on KNAC to KLOS to KMET to KMPC (short duration when JJ started that).
