Miscellaneous releases with Deep Purple material

There are loads of releases which are not issued under the "Deep Purple" banner and which nonetheless contain Deep Purple material. Of course, there are also stuff issued as "Deep Purple" but which contain very little of it. Most of these are so-called Various Artist releases. We don't intend to keep track off all of them, but we have listed a few below and we might add more as we find them. They are listed chronologically according to release date.
