    does Deep Purple! 🙄 But it’s well performed and his (metal) heart seems to be in it. The parade of metal shredders in the solo part – let’s face it: everyone of them technically superior to what Ritchie groundbreakingly did in the original song, guitar technique has evolved in leaps and bounds since then – is kinda cute.

    I prefer this version though:

    The parade of metal shredders was unexpected and took the video from good to epic. Excellent concept, executed brilliantly.

    Wow!!! I’m more than surprised: A really fantastic cover of this epic song. And by the way: They all look like rock musicians and their fans should look. This goes especially for singers who don’t want to fall their hair into their beer 🙂
