A musical biography telling the incredible story of the making of the Deep Purple album 'Machine Head'. The album that produced the rock masterpiece 'Smoke On The Water' and in 1972 brought worldwide super stardom to Deep Purple putting them at the pinnacle of seventies hard rock.

After the success of 'In Rock' and 'Fireball' the band decided on a European location to record their next album. They chose The Casino in Montreux in Switzerland only to see it burn down the night before recording was to begin.

Out of the ashes of the Casino however was to come their most memorable song and their most successful album ever. With smoke literally wafting over the water of Lake Geneva the band took up residence in the Grand Hotel and in the swiftly converted corridors and cupboards of the deserted Hotel recorded the album that was to become their tour de force.
