It's pretty funny, me and my band mates in high school used to laugh about what we called "Ritchie Blackmore inbreeding"...
Ian Gillian has been in and out of Deep Purple since the beginning. He worked with Blackmore for many years. He was also in post-Ozzy Sabbath, replacing Ronnie James Dio in 1983.
Ronnie James Dio was in Rainbow, with Blackmore, and replaced Ozzy in Sabbath.
Graham Bonnett, who replaced Dio in Rainbow went on to play with Yngwie Malmsteen in Alcatrazz, and was replaced when Alcatrazz split up by Joe Lynn Turner, who eventually left Malmsteen's band to take a gig with Deep Purple and Richie Blackmore.
And that's just what I can remember off the top of my head.
