Tommy: "Six months before I joined I was starving!" Every lineup had something. RIP Tommy Bolin, Jon Lord, Sir Malcolm Arnold, Claude Nobs, Frank Zappa, Patsy Collins, Ron Quinton, Martin Birch, Tony Edwards & John Coletta.
The two Ians, Ritchie, Jon and Roger are equal contributors imho, each one bringing his own piece of the magic to the table. Take any one of them out of the equation and you are left with a great rock band but one that is not the quintessential Deep Purple. Quick shout out to Steve Morse too. He is awesome and a very worthy replacement but still not Ritchie (nor does he claim to be, Steve is awesome in his own right) but it was Ritchie who wrote "That Riff", you know, the single most iconic riff in the history of rock!
Love the music of deep purple and like uk metal bands iron maiden and black sabbath my name is latrell love blues and metal and classical doom metal my favorite guitarists Tony iommi and Ritchie Blackmore and Jimi hendrix and Eddie Van Halen.
@weg95 The '68 lineup of DP was: Ian Paice, Ritchie Blackmore, Jon Lord, Nick Simper on Bass and Rod Evans on Vocals.Rod later went on to form Captain Beyond with members of Iron Butterfly. Captain Beyond's first two albums are worth checking out they are great!
I saw him 1979 from the inside out tour and last year muscle tour!he has aged like wine! It like going to a movie ! At 75 he is the best act out there! What a band ! Very tight! My favorite song is nurse rostta!
Out of the big 3 original metal bands, Deep Purple are my favorite. My dad bought me a cassette which was a best of on Axis records (Deepest Purple?). Turned me on my head as a 9 year old kid.
Only for a short period in history. Before, Britain had nothing, only Purcell and Elgar. Jon's and Ritchie's (classical/medievil) influences came in total from the continent.
years ago Ian Gillan said about Tommy Bolin: "He had his moment.He came to us from Heaven and soon came back in Heaven."it's really sad that Tommy died so young.R.I.P,forever in our hearts!!!!!!!!
I have always been impressed that the classic line-up speak so well of Tommy Bolin, it would have been easy for them to hatchet him but they all know how gifted he was. They obviously respect him and Ritchie relates a story about their meeting in 1975. For this Google: Ritchie Blackmore on Tommy Bolin.
Agree with the great contributions of both Hughes and Coverdale. They made classic songs and records with Purple but the best band was and will always be the encarnation with Lord, Glover, Gillan, Paice and Blackmore. And that have been said also by the founders of Deep Purple.
I forgot to say that I agree with Gillan,and I feel sorry for Lord, and Paice becouse of they gave their name for that crap-and I hope that Glover could ever forgot them for fireing him out!!
Yes, Made In Japan is a powerhouse, but that was MKII's absolute best. IMO, MKIII matched them often. Have you heard Live In Paris 1975? Blackmore is on fire. Hughes/Coverdale sing like angels. Paice and Hughes make a monster rhythm section and Lord's keyboard playing has developed even further. MKII and MKIII were both very intense live acts. I saw DP on the Burn tour. Very loud and intense! Too bad MKIII didn't get a chance to make their 3rd album. It would have been a big heavy hit I believe.
Saw Purple in 72, 73, 74, 76, 85, 87 (2x). Mark 2 IS Deep Purple. I have never liked Hughes. His bass playing is pedantic, his vocals so annoying all that whooping and other stupid stuff. Paice and Glover is a superb rhythm section , really driving the music, providing a great foundation for Jon and Ritchie to solo off of. 72 remains one of the 3 best concerts i ever attended. (Other 2, ELP in 74, Rainbow in 76). 76 show was terrible.... 73 a good concert even if the band was falling apart. The burn show was good, but compared to the Machine Head show, MH WAY better,
As sad as it might have been to some DP fans that Gillan left, I totally understand his point. Ironically the band did approach new musical terrain after he left, which I consider as their peak. DP always had great replacements and I think ' Burn ' and ' Come taste the band ' are two of DP's three best records apart from ' Machine Head '
dockaiser it may be to some purple fans deep purple split later, because Gillan left the band and mk3 couldn‘t deliver how they did with mk2. At that time deep purple fans lived mk2 much more as mk3.
@dockaiser Come Taste The Band is porn!! I guess I'll always consider the Mark II Era as the definitive Deep Purple... but When Hughes, Bolin and Coverdale came together, magic happened... I wish those three would have continued in another band on their own! RIP Bolin... I bet he's smilin' about how good the other two are still doing:)
Hi folks chill all will ya..everyone have their favorites both albums or for the important topic of lineups..i really favors Mark 2 but no disrespect to the others..current incarnation is still good as they held the foundation of mk 2 better than any other incarnation. Morse's is just very humble & on keys Don Airey..Jon Lord would have been proud.🤗..check out their bluray of this lineup concert titled Deep 💜 with Orchestra in Montreux 2011.
@zonkov88 ..because those bands handled the documentation of their careers by their self. They hired movie makers etc and spent a lot of money for those movies. Purple didn't, it's a shame
Right on! Couldn't agree more. Neither Hughes nor the donkey-voiced Coverdale were a true Purple material. Bolin, the really brilliant guitar player he was, was totally out of place in Deep Purple. His style did not fit at all. There was no coincidence that Ritchie left. I know that there are a great many Coverdale fans out there, but I am sorry - this guy never had neither the voice, nor the intelligent delivery of Gillan. DC is just a ballad singer at best. Gillan was a titan.
@green fox I always like Gillan better than Coverdale, but when Ian's voice went, it really went. He hasn't been able to sing his own stuff since 1998. The MK3 years were inconsistent IMO. I really do like Burn, but Stormbringer didn't really sound like Deep Purple to me.
green fox gillan could perform everything, but mk3 staff wasn‘t worth! He didn‘t like it at all! Yes, he lost his voice because he only delivered for his music without taking care of yourself. And he sounds fantastic. The two other never could together fill Gillans shoes. So keep silent!
I don't really think other line-ups than Mk2 had chance to reach that high,professionalism,and remarkable style of playing and jamming together.I mean there's no doubt,Coverdale and Hughes are great players too,but Purple had stashed into a slightly different way with them,a rather Whitesnake or lynard Skynard like american super group style-and it made them more money then fame!
power ballads, load of bollox, even Glam Rock was side by side known as The Year 4 Queers, Glad I'm Irish, with Thin Lizzy 2 back us up with.... :-) :-) :-)
Oh come on now, Gillian Anderson is wonderful, and she was only standing in for Ian while he kicked Joe Lynn Turner's ass for saying he was dead. Ritchie managed to stifle a laugh in case the press were poised ready to misunderstand everything he did. They do that quite a lot actually.....
happy to have attended two DP concerts - in 1975 and 2010 respectively
The Best Rock Band of the last century !!!! The GODS of Rock.
Bet that's not your original surname ...:-)
Deep Purple the best rock band ever!!!
I love Deep Purple.
Tommy: "Six months before I joined I was starving!"
Every lineup had something.
RIP Tommy Bolin, Jon Lord, Sir Malcolm Arnold, Claude Nobs, Frank Zappa, Patsy Collins, Ron Quinton, Martin Birch, Tony Edwards & John Coletta.
Also Randy California.
Ritchie, Ian, Jon, Roger and Paice are the greatest DP line-up.
MARK 2
Mark III had more musical capacities and the exitement of musical conflicts inflicted more interesting results in a short time till Ritchie left.
Machine Head.
Still the best live album...ever!
Ian Paice and Jon Lord are Deep Purple really. They held it together
The two Ians, Ritchie, Jon and Roger are equal contributors imho, each one bringing his own piece of the magic to the table. Take any one of them out of the equation and you are left with a great rock band but one that is not the quintessential Deep Purple. Quick shout out to Steve Morse too.

❤this!!! I was 11 years old in 1971.
Иен Гиллан,Роджер Гловер,Иен Пэйс,Джон Лорд и Ричи Блэкмор величайшие музыканты всех времен и народов💜👍
RIP Jon Lord, Tommy Bolin and Sir Malcolm Arnold.
Very good, not seen a lot of that film before.
A maior banda de hard rock que já existiu.
happy to have attended two DP concerts - in 1975 and 2010 respectively
MK 2 banda genial , MK 3 una banda sofisticada, ambas distintas , pero particularmete maravillosas .
Glentleman,charming,clever,lucid, I love Jon. ROCKN ON !!!!!!!!!!
Love the music of deep purple and like uk metal bands iron maiden and black sabbath my name is latrell love blues and metal and classical doom metal my favorite guitarists Tony iommi and Ritchie Blackmore and Jimi hendrix and Eddie Van Halen.

Im lucky enough to belong to this generation , great music
All the best music comes from England I’ve got to say
Yes!!
It came all over the country but because english is like very widespread used language so american ang english music gets recognition
Only for a short period in history. Before, Britain had nothing, only Purcell and Elgar. Jon's and Ritchie's (classical/medievil) influences came in total from the continent.
British hard rock. unequaled.
Lynard Skynard!!!
Always have liked their cover of "Help"
Thanks for posting! Fast paced, no boring narration, lots of great clips and interview snippets. And everyone knows the original lineup was the best.
years ago Ian Gillan said about Tommy Bolin: "He had his moment.He came to us from Heaven and soon came back in Heaven."it's really sad that Tommy died so young.R.I.P,forever in our hearts!!!!!!!!

ajie cahyono it was Hughes
If you want the power albums In Rock must top the list along with Made in Japan.
One of my heroes is dead. RIP Jon Lord!
Agree with the great contributions of both Hughes and Coverdale. They made classic songs and records with Purple but the best band was and will always be the encarnation with Lord, Glover, Gillan, Paice and Blackmore. And that have been said also by the founders of Deep Purple.
Yes Ian Gillan did 4 deep purple what Bruce Dickinson did 4 maiden. JACKYL
Its illegal to disagree or it at least should be.
Paco Chuquiure r fed eeefff fed rasa
I just wish mark 2 stayed together. 1973-1974 they were the biggest band in the world.
Una de las mejores bandas de todos los tiempos.
he asistido a dos conciertos de los DP - en 1975 y en 2010
1:54 MKI (1968-1969)
3:06 MKII (1969-1973)
14:40 MKIII (1973-1975)
17:57 MKIV (1975-1976)
MKV (1989-1992)
MKVI (1992-1993)
MKVII (1993-1994)
MKVIII(1994-2002)

Thankyou for getting it right. Mark 2 forever.

Great sorta bio on the greatest band of all time DP!!!

This video was cobbled together, and it looks like it.

MK2 the best lineup...
I forgot to say that I agree with Gillan,and I feel sorry for Lord, and Paice becouse of they gave their name for that crap-and I hope that Glover could ever forgot them for fireing him out!!
👍♥️🤘 from the 🇵🇭, Philippines.😉
Can't wait to buy this - a great EPK.
Very good view of the whole career of this band.
the best

I always favored Mark 2.
Yup, as did most fans of Purple.

Probably could Include in rock too in that list.
❤️
can only wonder what other contributions Tommy would have made to music
Great video btw.
Спасибо!!!!!
S E N S A T I O N A L . . . thanks for this bloody beauty!
blackmore left,bolin joined,deep purple died, end of
@dockaiser i also loved burn and come taste the band.......got to put perfect strangers in the mix
Yeah im dissapointed that u just skipped Who we think we are album. Its so unerrated.
Ikr, it's got Woman from Tokyo, which became a hit.
Mk 2 Deep Purple 69-73 absolutely bossed it on stage. Then Ritchie got bored, Gillan blew out his vocal chords, and they were never the same again.
Awesome. The great!
This is Gooood....
@dockaiser Come Taste The Band is porn!! I guess I'll always consider the Mark II Era as the definitive Deep Purple... but When Hughes, Bolin and Coverdale came together, magic happened...

Best band Deep Purple of Lowe
All the big rock bands stayed in that hotel, in Auckland Black Sabbath, Fleetwood mac. Right next to Auckland university. On Waterloo Quandrant.
The stories those hotel room walls could tell, my God!!!
It's COOL DP!!!
Hi folks chill all will ya..everyone have their favorites both albums or for the important topic of lineups..i really favors Mark 2 but no disrespect to the others..current incarnation is still good as they held the foundation of mk 2 better than any other incarnation.

Mark Two - accept NO substitutes.,
That guitar tone at 7:39...
Yeah I can see how the purple playin in that old english house would wake up a few spirits
Самый наилучший.состав это Гиллан, Пейс, Гловер,Лорд и вишенка на.торте Блэкмор!!
1:32 , Blackmore had it enough on the cameraman Hahahaha
theres was only one deep purple lineup and that was with ian gillan and roger glover
@zonkov88 ..because those bands handled the documentation of their careers by their self. They hired movie makers etc and spent a lot of money for those movies.
Purple didn't, it's a shame
VERY GOOD. KAMI ROSHANDEL
saw them in Sydney
Люьлю💗
Mark 3 was a great lineup but the mark 2 is For me Deep Purple!
I think in the 70s deep purple was very metal style
Lord is our lord.
Who is in this 1968 line up?
68.
Rod Evans/vocals
Nick Simper/Bass
Ritchie Blackmore/guitar
Ian Paice/drums
Jon Lord/keys
4:04 How high was Ian Gillan here? LOL

At 7:21 how hot was that,
cute
I wonder who did the subtitles? Must have totaly no knowledge of the language or the band 👎
No, I don't. Actually I disagree totally.
Tommy Bolin !!!!
power ballads, load of bollox, even Glam Rock was side by side known as The Year 4 Queers, Glad I'm Irish, with Thin Lizzy 2 back us up with.... :-) :-) :-)
Gillian's always annoyed me and their lyrics are stupid.
Who is Gillian?
you're being very harsh on gillian there mate,you dont even know her.
If you're annoyed you have simple choice - don't listen . And perhaps if you're too stupid to understand lyrics , switch to comics instead :)
