alt.music.deep-purple is the Usenet group to go to if you want to discuss Deep Purple. Some people claim that we are a nice bunch of people. One of our more famous regulars recently wrote:

"...every time I come back to it I'm amazed at the vital atmosphere I sense on this news group. And the smell."

What can I say? He's right.

On this page we want to share the greatest hits of the newsgroup. The Remastered Anniversary Edition of the newsgroup perhaps. Things that maybe not always are related to the band we all love.

If you get confused about something in the posts try our list of Deep Purple Three Letter Acronyms.

If you don't have access to a Usenet server feed, you can try using a commercial supplier, such as Giganews Usenet Service, which will offer services such as large historical archives and high transfer rates.
