I feel the same way about everything else, of course

And yet, I feel like (a) MkII was not just a great band, but an all-time great band (I'm really amazed that my estimation for them has only grown through the years), and (b) the greatness of MkII meant that all of the falls from grace of later incarnations actually "mattered," if that makes sense. If David Coverdale and Glenn Hughes joining a band moves beyond a mere annoyance and becomes something close to a musical tragedy, that means they were spoiling something great.
