There's 2 Sides to every story!
You Rarely Hear Richie Speak about it!
-
Glenn Hughes? He's the only thing I can't stand about the Mk III lineup!

@katt329 How dare you diss the Mighty Purple, they're a class act whoever's in the band (ok it was a mistake getting Joe Lynn Turner in, ha ha). Nah seriously just kidding man. I enjoy the band's career as a whole but you do have a point. It will be a bit farcical if Paicey ever decides to quit then they'll be no original members left. I do rate Morse (saw DP live in '96 and '98) but Blackmore and the MK2 lineup were something extra special.

Ian and Ritchie are just both selfish asses who both battled with egos. Pity really. Great musicians.
-
its still purple, its just a different era! Ritchie is amazing and it will never sound like it did without him. But Purple is still VERY creative (example, Purpendicular.)
Its not fair to compare era's as they are excellent in their own right
-
Ha Ha. What a joke. You're not serious right? Robert Plant, David Coverdale, Glen Hughes.... Gillan is good but he's not the greatest ever.
-
JOHN Glover????
-
Well 'Iron' Gillan thats all very well if you could back up the talk with the pipes that you used to have..
If you going to keep touring with the Purps you cant simply rely on your reputation. Besides what is Purple without Blackmore anyway????

john glover ahahahah

It all comes down to a simple equation:
Deep Purple - Blackmore = REO Speedwagon - Richrath = James gang - Joe Walsh = Doors - Morrison = Beatles - McCartney = Skynryd - Van Zant = Mothers - Zappa = Well, you get the picture.
Ian doesn't seem to be a bad guy.
