Line 74:
* [[Does Not Like Shoes]]: Ian Gillan.
* [[Downer Ending]]: Occurs in "Strange Kind Of Woman"...
{{quote| She finally said she loved me<br />
I wed her in a hurry<br />
No more callers and I glowed with pride<br />
I'm dreaming<br />
I feel like screaming<br />
I won my woman just before she died }}
* [[Epic Instrumental Opener]]: "Lazy." Nearly four and a half minutes of organ solo before the actual song starts. (And the rest of the song is only three minutes long!)
Line 106:
* [[Recycled Lyrics]]: "hard lovin' man" from "Bloodsucker", and reappearing on the track of the same name later on the same album.
** Lampshaded in the song Hungry Daze from their 1984 album Perfect Strangers, which recycles the first line of Smoke On The Water
{{quote| "We all came down to Montreux, but that's another song"}}
* [[Revolving Door Band]]
* [[Rockers Smash Guitars]]: California Jam, 1974; Blackmore threw guitars into the audience and more infamously smashed a network video camera with his guitar.
