In general, “Mark” or “Mk” – plus a roman number added ascending - stands for the many different line ups of Deep Purple and therefore also for the bands numerous periods in time.
The fan classic Mk II even had some reunions over time:
Ian Paice – Ritchie Blackmore – Jon Lord – Ian Gillan - Roger Glover

Come taste the Band: The final album before the Band took a long hiatus - until 1984s return of the Mk II line-up . Recorded by the very short-lived Mk IV with Tommy Brolin on guitar.
In my opinion Brolin made a solid debut in the Band here, even though some don’t think it is a “real” Deep Purple album.
I had a long discussion with myself to put this one either on No. 4 or 3 – call the outcome a roll of the dice if you want.

Burn: Personally, I find the cover art very lame – but musically this one is really solid hard rock. The 6 minute title track alone is worth the buy : ) Of course Ian Gillan refuses to sing this song live…
Still some may call Mk III not really Deep Purple, I consider this album amog the Bands Top 5 – but we will see this later in another video ; )

Machine Head: Who would not have guessed it or even demanded this one as the No. 1 album out of this era…??
Well, there is just no way around this album, even it is anything but a surprise or maybe call it lame to rank it as the top of the bill if you like : )
All the stories about their recording sessions are told many times.
Thank you Frank Zappa ; )

Hey ❗ Yes sir, a great way to split up their eras... You've absolutely nailed the top 2. Their greatest albums of all time, for me, though In Rock isn't far off. Lovely to see WDWTWA appearing in a top 5.
I don't think that this album is ever fully appreciated. Personally, I don't think much of CTTB, A great opening track, as always, but nothing memorable, so I would have put it last. Thank you for this, I've been waiting patiently... Now to check the PT, 1 👍 😎💜🎶

Great Deep Purple part 2 video. I like every Purple album, but my fave would have to be Machine Head, that is a monster album.

Still only know Smoke on the Water, can't rank, sorry 🤣 But great information! :)
