Is there an alternative training for Deep Purple? It would be the formation known as MARKIII, made of Ritchie blackmore, david coverdale, Glenn hugs, Jon lord and instead of Ian Paice on drums (who is playing with the 'real' Purple), I'd be Lars Ulrich from Metallica.
And if they are hearsay, they come from somewhere, although Jon Lord himself denies it: «EI heard rumors about the return of Deep Purple Mark 3, with the inclusion of Lars Ulrich, but they are all speculations…. I can't imagine this formation without the presence of Ian Paice«.
We will wait for more news, but if it materializes, it would be a bombshell...
