Različne zasedbe so skozi zgodovino skupine Deep Purple med oboževalci in tudi člani skupine označene z "Mark" številkami (okrajšano z Mk I, Mk II, itd). Kot Mark VI (Mk VI) je tako označena skupina koncertov z Joem Satrianijem kot kitaristom za zamenjavo Ritchieja Blackmorea, ko je le ta zapustil skupino sredi turneje v novembru 1993. Ta zasedba ni izdala nobenega uradnega posnetka.
