I have no problem getting copies of the classic years albums "Shades of Deep Purple" to "Come Taste the Band" they are easily available and at reasonable price. The comeback albums "Perfect Strangers" up to "The Battle Rages On" is also easy to get online. The Mark Morse "Purpendicular", "Now What" and "Infinite" is also easy and available since "NW" and "Infinite" is still new albums. "Rapture of the Deep" is also easy to get, but at a higher price, I paid an equivalent to more or less three albums, man I have to borrow money. 😭 When I saw it online "Bananas" is equivalent to more or less ten albums!!! 😭😭😭 It seems that "no" record company is interested in releasing "Abandon" on vinyl, I hope I'm wrong. Please, reissue "Bananas" on vinyl.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Randys)Sat, 31 Mar 2018 03:53:28 +0000 Re: Collecting Deep Purple studio albums on vinylhttps://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p514918,from=rss#post514918https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p514918,from=rss#post514918Cassette tapes are also making a comeback, it would also be cool to have a collection on cassette tapes.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Randys)Sat, 31 Mar 2018 03:27:00 +0000 Re:https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p514889,from=rss#post514889https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p514889,from=rss#post514889Maybe in some years the cassette edition of "Infinite" will be as much sought after as the vinyl of "Bananas" now ;-) nondisclosed_email@example.com (snakehead)Wed, 28 Mar 2018 19:27:14 +0000 Re: Collecting Deep Purple studio albums on vinylhttps://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p514885,from=rss#post514885https://bdeeppurplefanforum.runboard.com/p514885,from=rss#post514885I did order Infinite-Gold Edition online, still waiting for it, now I have 4 copies of Infinite. How did that happen, let me explain. I bought it on vinyl format after four months or more when it was released. Then I saw the Deluxe Boxset with the 10" singles and others, which I bought quickly, so at that time I have 2-vinyl LP, 1-CD, that's 3-copies of Infinite.
