DEEP PURPLE: Two Complete Shows From BLACKMORE's Final Tour To Be Released On CD

November 30, 2005

According to Deep-Purple.net, BMG will be releasing two full shows from guitarist Ritchie Blackmore's last tour with DEEP PURPLE — recorded in Stuttgart and Birmingham in October/November 1993 on "The Battle Rages On" trek — as a four-CD box set. Both shows will be completely unedited and will make up for any disappointment that fans felt when the original "Come Hell Or High Water" CD was released eleven years ago.
