   Is it allowed?

   Are the Koreans trying to say they rock harder than Purple? Screw them!! The vocals on the chorus are so awesome, though, that I take that back. These guys now officially own the chorus to “Smoke on the Water”, and Deep Purple needs to acknowledge that at a press conference.

   Closer examination reveals that this metal ensemble is in fact Japanese. Recently uncovered CIA documents do reveal, however, that North Korea is working on a weaponized version of, “Ashtray Heart” with traditional costumes and light show.

   The way I see it: nothing more ” Smoke on the Water” than:
   Manah, manah.
   No bigger art than the one from the common people.

    I won’t comment that much anymore. That’s promised.

    However what’s the link between ManahManah & Smoke on the Water & the like? Let’s go back to the late 60ties of the 20th century.

    -M. M. was the sound track, composed by an Italian, Piero Umiliani, for a Swedish soft porno movy in 1968. Great ( elementary ) popular find.
    - S.O.T.W. was a riff put together by Deep Purple. Great ( elementary ) popular find.

    Both tunes were considered as crap by the ” gens biens” of that period. They, the well done people, just overlooked … that & that & that.

    The other side of the 60ties mirror: there’s just one comparable ” classical” composer, who survived that period, it’s … another Great Italian, Luciano Berio. Part of his art : he was smart enough to recompose Beatles songs.
