Hi Nick, I'm Ishtiaque from Bangladesh. I bet you haven't heard about this country; but guess what? There are many purple fans out here. I am particularly a big fan of the MK 1 albums of DP..they were really great! Rock on!

Well, it was already availible at the Deep Purple Hub, for download... nice to see them let Joanna post this though, along with the several copyrighted materials as well, what is the matter with THS these days? Try finding it in the video section at this location, once you're given access. http://deeppurplehub.proboards31.com/

Just thought all the fans out there might like to know that there's a video clip of Nick and Pete Parks in Warhorse on the DP site www.highwaystar.com. Go to the home page and click on "Good Morning" in the left hand column. Cheers Martin

Good to see Nick back with the Boys at Esquires last night, well worth the trip down fron Lutterworth, Leicestershire for Sal and me and for our bass player and wife to come up from Dunmow in Essex. Their first G.O.B's gig and they loved every minute. Thanks to the rest of the guys time chatting. See you all again soon at the Union I hope. Well done the Sid Fund, a very good and worthwhile night.

Just back from the gig at Esquires, Bedford. Wow, do these Good Old Boys hit the spot? YES.... Looking forward to doing a deal with you guys for a gig at The Angel, Bedford. Thanks (VERY MUCH) for coming down and doing the Sid Gig tonight! Rob (Vice-chairman, and compere) Vernon

Hi Nick - pity that the Vienna show was postponed, we all wanted to come there from Poland to see you in action. I hope we'll see you in November as announced. Anyway - your website is amazing, with lots of unique pictures and stories. Your bio is a fantastic reading, cannot wait for next chapters. CHEERS!!! PS. Recently I heard "Chasing Shadows" - your bass line is indeed a gas!

Hi Nick. Just wanted to let you know that I've been featuring your work with Purple, Warhorse (especially!!),Fandango and Quartermass on a number of prog/hard rock shows I've hosted on various national radio stations here in South Africa for many years.The two Warhorse albums are amongst my favourite albums of all time. Thanks for the really fantastic music - I featured Warhorse again on my show recently and the response was great, as always! Please visit my websites when you can - Warhorse is well represented! (www.rock.co.za/rockit and www.dinosaurdays.co.za) All the best. Leon.

Hi Nick and co. Glad the site is so popular. Any plans to bring in a Discussion Forum or similar? It would be interesting to talk about the merits of Burning, Candice Larene (classic), She Was My Friend, et al, as well as the DP Mk.1 numbers. Hope you've recovered from the fall, and that Mac Poole is better too. Cheers!
