Subject: RE: Deep Purple & Blues Harps ...

Thorsten,

Way to go on scoring Ian Gillian's harp (of Deep Purple)!
I have an original (1972) LP of Deep Purple's Machine Head, and
consider Lazy to be a pretty cool tune. But, IMO, not enough
harp work by Ian (then). I'm sure that like most of us that
were beginning harpists from that era (yours truly), he too is
a much better player now.

I would guess that he was playing either a Hohner
Marine Band or Blues Harp on Machine Head (?recorded late '71?),
which also contained the now classic Smoke On The Water.
