Hey everybody,
Last nite at Jones Beach, Ted Nugent, Deep Purple and Lynyrd Skynyrd
put on a
great show. Nugent went on first, he played a pretty high energy set,
as
always. Deep Purple came on next, and they put out a great set. I'm
not a big
fan of DP, but I was able to recognize most of their songs. The high
point of
their set was obviously Smoke On The Water. On the intro to this,
they
started with a snippet from Stairway to Heaven which started with
Jimmy's
solo and went through the fast rock section (no vocals though), and
then they
played snippets of other songs such as, AC/DC's Back In Black,
something from
The Who, a small piece of Skynyrd's Sweet Home Alabama, and a few
other songs
before going into Smoke On The Water, which absolutely rocked. The
Stairway
part was played with a spacey sounding guitar which gave it that sort
of Deep
Purple spaced out sound. It was very cool. Also notable was the
guitar on the
Back In Black piece, he handled the riff quite well and threw his own
style
into it as well. Skynyrd put on a great show as well. I have seen
them a
couple times before, and they spiced up their set a bit definately
for the
better. Anyways, I thought you guys might have wanted to hear about
the
slight Zep sounds from the evening. If anyone was their and has some
audio
from any of the sets I'd like a copy.
