Shouldn't this be the best version, Tom, the original 1982 recording?
The vid is deceiving:
- you see Cozy Powell drumming, but you hear Ian Paice,
- you see Mel Galley playing the left hand lead guitar, but you hear Bernie Marsden, who wrote the song with DC,
- you see Colin Hodgkinson playing bass with a pick, but you hear Neil Murray playing with his fingers.
In other words: The only people you see in the vid that actually recorded the song in its original form are DC on vox, Micky Moody (with hat) on right hand lead guitar and Jon Lord (ex-Led Zeppelin) on Hammond.
The reason for the whole charade was that by late 1982 when the vid was filmed, DC had fired half the band, namely
- Bernie Marsden (for being too jokey on stage, not being hungry enough for the US market and for gaining too much weight),
- Neil Murray (for allegedly not being the right bassist to pair with Cozy Powell, a total misjudgment by DC given that Neil had played with Cozy's solo band before and that it was Colin Hodgkinson who couldn't adapt his style to Cozy's "Barbarians at the gate"-pummeling of the drum kit) &
- Ian Paice (for not being hungry enough to conquer the US market from the ground up - Little Ian said he had no intention of repeating for WS the grueling US touring schedule DP had committed to ten years before to break through),
yet had not (re)recorded anything with the new line-up yet - instead the new line-up was presented with the then not yet released last album recording of the disbanded old line-up.
