Coverdale/Hughes era DP live albums?

[Steve]

Of the many archive releases from this period of the band, which are most worth my time? I have a handful of live records from Mark II and VI, but nothing from Mark III or IV beyond a few live tracks here and there on various compilations and box sets.

HM, you're the expert here. Please advise. Blackmore and Bolin will be given equal consideration as I like both. You Keep On Moving is one of my favourite DP songs from any lineup.

Unfortunately I am not the best person to ask as I am not big on live albums, so I really couldn't tell you what is good and what is bad.

This album is incredible though if you don't have it. It's outtakes and jams.

Listen to Coverdale and Bolin requesting booze and drugs in the studio before the session starts.
