SCORPIONS - Live In Essen, April 1975 - 'Fly To The Rainbow' Tour FM Broadcast - EU Sweet Leaf Limited Edition - VERY RARE

A limited, excellent European CD lasting 79 minutes, containing two performances by the classic line-up, with guitarist Uli Roth: a 50-minute radio-broadcast performance from Essen, Germany, from April 1975 (from the tour promoting the second, hard-progressive LP in their discography, "Fly To The Rainbow") and (as a BONUS) a 30-minute 'live' performance from Swiss TV from 1977 (promoting the LP "Virgin Killer"). The Essen concert was recorded by the German station WDR, and somehow the radio broadcast was professionally recorded by a fan of the band, hence this album! This material was available for years on CDs (and on YouTube) in much worse quality - with crackles! This is a different, almost perfect source! The band performed, among others, five tracks from the 'second album', unique covers of Hendrix's "Red House" and "Rock & Roll Queen" from the repertoire of Mott The Hoople, as well as "Long Tall Sally" and a short instrumental jam. The May 1977 performance, in turn, contained eight recordings in perfect sound quality. The whole is an ideal complement to the band's splendid catalogue records from 1974-1977. An absolute must! Condition: New, sealed. (JL)
