Description
"Perfect Strangers" is the eleventh studio album by Deep Purple, released on 16 September, 1984. It represents the first album recorded by the reformed, most successful and popular, 'Mark II' line-up. It was the first Deep Purple studio album in nine years, and the first with the MK II line-up for eleven years, the last being "Who Do We Think We Are" in 1973. Ritchie Blackmore and Roger Glover arrived from Rainbow, Ian Gillian from Black Sabbath, Jon Lord from Whitesnake and Ian Paice from Gary Moore's backing band. The album reached #5 in the UK (staying for four weeks in the Top 40) and #17 in the US (staying for 28 weeks in the Billboard 200). In 1985 they headlined the Knebworth Festival in England. The tour was so successful that the band had to add many additional dates to the US arena tour, as tickets sold out very quickly. Their US tour in 1985 out-grossed every artist that year except for Bruce Springsteen. This is the ORIGINAL 1984 US Vinyl Pressing / SEALED on the Mercury Records label. It is an RCA Music Club Pressing. The catalog # on the spine is: 824 003-1 M-1. The bar code matrix # is: 0 422-824003-1 4. The overall condition of the record is Near Mint. AS A BONUS, I am including the Very Rare, Deep Purple World Tour Program for a collectable "matching set". Tour Program is in EX+ Condition. Both record and program have been stored in a heavy duty anvil case since 2006 and comes from a smoke / pet free home. Shipped following business day as soon as payment is received. Media Mail ($6) will take at least 3 to 5 week due to being shipped by boat from Hawaii, not air! Priority Mail is $12, not $7 from Hawaii. PLEASE WAIT FOR INVOICE. International bidders please contact.
