Thanks @demonstone, I do get very very enthusiastic about somewhat cryptic music trivia.

The beauty of music is the influence is subjective - it's beautiful, anthematic, seminal, or meaningful for the listener. 

I'll try to nut one out tomorrow - love this stuff.

I was desperately searching for a link from Cowton to Crazy Horse. I even read most of the Wiki article on the native American chief of the same name!

Unfortunately Gary was a bit before my time. ?

Thanks ds, it was very interesting.

Even though I'm Deez through and through, I used to love watching Cow-Town play footy. There were some real characters in the 1977 Norf side.

Deep Purple are one of my favourable bands. 

Machine Head is IMHO one of the best albums of all time.

Favourite songs:

  1. Hush
  2. Highway Star
  3. Lazy
  4. Never before (very underrated)
  5. Space Trucking
  6. My Woman from Tokyo
  7. Speed King
  8. Strange Kind of Woman
  9. Burn
  10. You Fool No One
  11. Getting Tighter
  12. Might Just Take Your Life
  13. Stormbringer

You left out "Smoke On The Water".  I suspect this was not an oversight!   :D

If I had to choose just the one Deep Purple song, I'd probably go for "Highway Star".

Assuming the answer is neither "black sheep" nor "Batman",  the only connection I can make in my mind is the song "David Watts" which was written by Ray Davies and recorded by The Kinks and later covered by The Jam (with Bruce Foxton singing rather than usual singer/front man Paul Weller).

As for the rest of the puzzle .... NFI I'm afraid.  I think you'll stump many of us with this one, EO.

"Lazy" would be mine...nice take on a minor blues.

Make mine" Lazy" as well. Has to be played at 11, though. Even has a bit of harp, if I recall correctly. Might have to go and play it to make sure that's correct. Sorry, neighbours!

It turns out Ian Gillan was a keen Aussie Rules fan and on stage, would sing these words until the other guys in the band made him write more "bluesy" ones for the recorded version.

    TRAINING: Friday 22nd November 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force on a scorching morning out at Gosch's Paddock for the final session before the whole squad reunites for the Preseason Training Camp.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
