Deep Purple ~ Highway Star (1972)

"Highway Star" is a song by the English rock band Deep Purple. It is the opening track on the band's sixth studio album Machine Head (1972) and is the fastest tempo song on the album. It is characterized by long, classically inspired guitar and organ solos. This song was born on a tour bus going to Portsmouth in 1971 when a reporter asked the band how they wrote songs. To demonstrate, guitarist Ritchie Blackmore grabbed an acoustic guitar and began playing a riff consisting of a single "G" repeated over and over, while vocalist Ian Gillan improvised lyrics over the top. The song was refined and was performed that same night. The guitar solo gained recognition in 2015, when readers of Guitar World voted it No. 15 in their list of the "100 Greatest Guitar Solos". "Highway Star" by Deep Purple charted on the UK Top 40 chart, with its peak position being No. 4.
