@NZbloke If I never hear Smoke on the Water again I will be quite happy.
It was great the first 500 times I heard it but it is overplayed on the radio.
Peak 70's prog rock self-indulgence
There were a lot of songs that were overplayed on the radio back then & these days too... reckon you appreciate a song like this more when you haven't listened to it for a fair while.

@MN5 In Rock was the first purple album I bought.
I agree with you about SOTW (like Stairway to Heaven for Led Zep) but it's not even the best track on Machine Head.
Indeed. Fairly sure I’ve brought this up on here before. Both ‘signature songs’ are totally overplayed.
@NZbloke not sure how you’ve avoided ‘Smoke on the Water’ for years, I hear it all the time when channel surfing in the car !

@MajorRage when I heard it, it reminded me of the soundtrack for that, which also had Alice in Chains, Cypress Hill and others.

@taniwharugby and was the first place I heard one of my fave songs ever (Dream On)
Actually look at this … tracks 1-10 are sensational! Up there with Singles!

Good old fishbone. They’ll be thrilled to be in such company. The bassist from them gives online bass lessons on Facebook now.
Dream on is about Aerosmith’s only good song, Big Gun is a bit of a banger from AC/DC and Alice in Chains, Megadeth and Cypress Hill always deliver

Don't listen to that much music on the radio these days... prefer to choose my own selections.

Joni tells a story about how Neil was obsessed with that song, and would plug nickels into a jukebox and play it repeatedly. Took him a dozen years to work up the courage to cover it, but it’s probably the best song on that record (“Comes A Time”).
