A Deep Purple MkI Forum (or board)
Seeing as MkI seems to be getting a fair amount of long deserved and also long overdue attention, would it be possible to get a forum or board started dedicated to this embryonic, yet critical and wonderful stage of Deep Purple's long and storied career?
I'll even attach a poll to this topic and then we'll at least see if there's any general consensus for the idea - that's hoping that it would be possible to add it to the existing format without dropping anything else. So, interested parties - cast your vote!
Just as a suggestion - if space needs dictate it, I'd suggest combining the DVD + New Releases forums seeing as both are sort of the same thing...not exactly, but close enough to warrant being combined,I would think, if necessity dictates.

Re: A Deep Purple MkI Forum (or board)
Dunno, sounds a bit like a waste of time if you ask me, can't we discuss Mk I under Purple Discussions? It's not like Mk II, Mk III, Mk IV etc. have their own sections.

Ed, wouldn't that be spreading the discussions too much? Let's just discuss Mk1 whenever, & wherever we feel like it... lol

Re: A Deep Purple MkI Forum (or board)
I voted yes,mostly because I feel it's much more in the spirit of Purple than having a
Coverdale or JLT board any day,I also think there would be less negative discussion about mkI than JLT and more intersting than Coverdale.
Just my opinion of course,I also believe that if there were a collectors forum that my detractors would love seeing alot less of me throughout these forums. 
It's hard to stay away lately since my time is becoming more limited by the day,I'll be slowly but surely thinning out in the weeks to come,unless of course I take one of several job offers and get out of my current one.

No. Purple is Purple. In that case you can breakup Ritchie's side into BN, Rainbow, Sessions and miscellaneous topics. And so it goes further and further...

Re: A Deep Purple MkI Forum (or board)
I would be happy with a RB sessions forum Bobbi,the problem is that for reasons of a lack of knowlege from a majority of people here and also a lack of appreciation,I would be one of the only posters.

I, for one, would read many of the posts.  I'm always interested in what he does and I think that there is a lot I don't know. He's done too much.

Yes but having Coverdale and JLT sections are different than having Mk III and MK V ones isn't it? As for Coverdale being less interesting than Mk I I could argue that somebody still making albums, playing great shows and giving us new things to talk about is fundamentally more intriguing than a 60s pseudo-psychedelic attempt at copying the Vanilla Fudge sound.
