EP
Lady Double
Lady Double is an EP by Deep Purple, issued in 1985 on the San Juan Music label. It arrived in the middle of a busy stretch for the band, one year after Perfect Strangers (1984) brought the group back to the album racks and two years before The House of Blue Light (1987).
Beyond that, there is little to add about the release itself, so it is best approached as a small footnote to the mid-1980s chapter of the band's story. For anyone tracing the group through that era, it is a curio that sits neatly between two full studio albums.
