DEEP PURPLE
In Concert, early 2002
330 x 240mm. 32 pages. Colour. Very generic world tour programme for early 2002, first on sale at February 2002 UK tour. Pages for each band member, essays and tour features, and two pages of Thames / Thompson merchandise.
DEEP PURPLE
In Concert, late 2002
330 x 240mm. 32 pages. Colour. Basically the same as the previous programme, but with some pages replaced: Jon Lord's two pages with a Don Airey feature, a Mk7 'thank you' page with an explanation of the line-up change, and Mk7 group photo with a page on the latest solo releases.
DEEP PURPLE
Summer Tour 2003
330 x 240mm. 32 pages. Colour. New cover, but a very sizeable proportion of the material inside is repeated from the 2002 programme: templates, essays, photos, and adverts. Comes across as a very lazy effort indeed. Last of the Thames / Thompson produced programmes.
 
DEEP PURPLE
Bananas World Tour 2004
280 X 280 mm. 24 pages. Colour.Designed by Rapture cover artist Ioannis. Nice photo content, lightweight text content, but lifts nothing from previous programmes.
DEEP PURPLE
Rapture Of The Deep World Tour 2006
310 X 240mm. 24 pages. Colour. Heavy matt card, with improved photo reproduction. Text limited to band biogs, and essay on the new album by Jeff Miers.
