The road to Knebworth : the return of Deep Purple

Bloom, Jerry2018
Books
Deep Purple's reunion in 1984 was a dream come true for its legions of fans: particularly as it reunited the classic line-up that had split in 1973. Following the release of the comeback album Perfect Strangers they embarked on a nine-month world tour, kicking off in Australia in November '84 and working its way around the globe, taking in North America and Japan before the band reached Europe in June 1985. Purple played four sold out shows in Sweden, two large festivals in Germany, three gigs in France, and many more around the continent. Yet in their homeland fans had to settle for just one open-air concert at Knebworth House in Hertfordshire on 22nd June. This book is a celebration of that day, based around the huge number of previously unpublished photos of the event.
