Of course I like Ritchie Blackmore more than the other two and I would like to be with Deep purple.But I voted Morse because I like his style and he fits with Deep purple.And I think that his sound is more thick than Blackmore's.

And I know that he doesn't sing in Italian.LOL

I personally like Tommy the best of these three guitarists, and I voted for him just to keep things interesting.
 
But his Purple work is not his best, and Ritchie's define the band. But I've spent much more of my life listening to Tommy play guitar than Ritchie.
 
Steve's good but I just haven't spent that much time listening to him.
You are quite a fine person, and I am very fond of you. But you are only quite a little fellow, in a wide world, after all.

To my ears, its not Deep Purple without Ritchie Blackmore.

Seriously? You've placed Ritchie along the other two? Why don't you make a poll where the results are not the obvious? I'm telling you this as a suggestion, I mean, be honest here, don't you REALLY know that at least 80% will vote for Ritchie?

Maybe having placed Steve Morse against Tommy Bolin would be more interesting.
 
BTW, I'm a bigger fan of Tommy than of Ritchie.
 
 
I know they were long time ago, just showing the obvious results.

Blackmore by far.
And then one day you find
Ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run
You missed the starting gun

This.

If only I had £10 for every ridiculously straightforward question like this, I would be a rich man by now.

One is above the others and he is Ritchie! Without doubt the best ever Purple guitarist!

There are many Ritchie´s haters. (I´m one of them.) Therefore I´m very curious to rate of all Deep Purple guitarists.

Notice: Joe Satriani due to his short appearance in the band and not recording with them isn´t included.
