You Keep on Moving is a song by British hard rock band Deep Purple that was released on the album Come Taste the Band in 1975 and later as a single.

admission

According to an interview with ex-Deep Purple organist Jon Lord, You Keep on Moving was most likely created during the sessions for the album Burn in autumn 1973, but there was no place there due to the rejection of guitarist Ritchie Blackmore . Finally, after Blackmore's departure, the song made it to the album Come Taste the Band as the final track . In a shortened version, the song was released as a single with either Dealer or Love Child .
