Ritchie Blackmore Lazy
I’ve been waiting for weeks for a valid reason to post this one – Wild Willy Berrett’s “Moose Loose Kickin'”
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TUd6Np8nEM
Wow, he makes that John Otway guy seem like Barry Manilow!
and, of course, they have just been celebrating forty years as a double act with a tour!
Of course, I’d already forgotten he was his partner in that video.

nice one!
All nice suggestions… but how could you have so easily forgotten this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-lrWZuRn08I
Skip to 2:18 for the money shot, of just enjoy all of the Insanity leading up to it IF YOU DARE!
Wow
I find the Blackmore solo in this performance of Highway Star to be totally in-saaaaaaane. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LRt3PIDER94&ob=av2n Although it has nothing on Gillan’s incoherent vocals.
WOW!

Fripp’s solo on Bowie’s Scary Monsters qualifies literally as insane.
