Music for tonight: Smoke on the Water, Deep Purple
This video was released 52 years after the song:

The song tells the story of its own recording and it's a wild one. Some stupid with a flare gun did indeed burn the casino down where they were supposed to record and they ended up in the Grand hotel where they finished the album.

Это событие вдохновило группу Deep Purple на создание их знаменитой песни "Smoke on the Water".
Пожар начался во время концерта Frank Zappa и The Mothers of Invention, когда фанат выстрелил из ракетницы в крышу зала. Никто серьезно не пострадал, но всё оборудование группы было уничтожено. Казино при пожаре было полностью разрушено.
Текст песни описывает дым, стелющийся над Женевским озером:
We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile, yeah
We didn't have much time now
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky.
Den tragiska nyårsbranden i Schweiz har en föregångare 55 år tidigare, dock utan dödsoffer som det verkar:
#OnThisDay in 1971 Montreux Casino burned down during a Frank Zappa show after someone fired a flare gun into the ceiling.
Deep Purple were scheduled to record their next album there but "had to find another place".
Today in Music History December 4, 1971: An audience member in Montreux Casino, on the shoreline of Lake Geneva, fired a flare gun at Frank Zappa and The Mothers of Invention, who were performing there, causing a fire that destroyed the venue and inspired the classic song by Deep Purple: "Smoke on the Water." Deep Purple, who were in the audience, were there to record their album, Machine Head, with a mobile recording system borrowed from the Rolling Stones.

Just saw this piano adaptation of #SmokeOnTheWater. Technically polished. Sonically excellent. Wonderful presentation…but too perfect. No swing. Spirit and soul locked out via strong anal clenching. But otherwise very good…this is what conservative reverence sounds like. Pumping it thru a few Marshalls won’t help if there isn’t a little give and take. A #GospelChoir in a church can literally take the roof off. Needs more O’ that
