On this day in 1971, the Montreux Casino in Switzerland went up in flames during a Frank Zappa show. This incident was forever captured in Deep Purple's 'Smoke On The Water.' The Casino had previously become the iconic home of the Montreux Jazz Festival, founded by Claude Nobs. During the fire, Nobs bravely rescued several young people who had taken shelter there. A recording of the fire can be found on Frank Zappa's bootleg album Swiss Cheese / Fire. . #deeppurple #smokeonthewater #70srock #70s

Le 4 décembre 1971, le casino de Montreux prend feu, la fumée se répand sur le lac Léman. 🚒 C’est ce qui inspire le groupe Deep Purple à écrire “Smoke on the Water”, un des plus grands tubes de l’histoire du rock… et le riff préféré de tous les guitaristes débutants 🎸 En 2006, le groupe revient jouer le morceau au festival de Montreux - et ne met heureusement le feu à la scène qu’au sens figuré.
