I could be mistaken, but I recently read somewhere that there was a newspaper strike in Vancouver and a small, local newspaper writer was the only print media represented at Zep's press conference.

 

Perhaps I'm thinking of another city and press conference, but I do seem to think it was Vancouver where there was a strike and a local guy got the scoop. That doesn't mean this is THE writer from the small newspaper, but it could be.

It's true, there was a Vancouver Sun strike at the time, but there was other media there. I have several print articles from across the country.

I'm surprised this is the only film footage that has surfaced because there were a few TV cameras at the press conference. My inquiries in other Canadian media archives have come up empty through the years, except this one. :)

Great to see. Anyone know the identity of man shaking Jimmy's hand?

No idea, but he kinda looks like Alan Ginsberg
