For the first time since October 1984, we are now able to watch the full press conference by Deep Purple announcing their Perfect Strangers album and tour. Presented by Polygram and the ABC radio network, this was as they say, a momentous occasion in Rock. Ritchie Blackmore failed to attend, whilst the remaining Mark 2 members are clearly enjoying the moment.
