[FONT=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Classic Rock Magazine's latest issue is fuelling Mk 3 Deep Purple reformation rumours on the internet, by saying that both Hughes and Coverdale are up for it, and have spoken to Lord and Paice. There is a world of difference between "being up for it" and it happening, so don't get too carried away by all this. Paicey is already in Deep Purple for one thing, and then they would need the guitarist. [/FONT]
