GOLDEN EARRING LIVE - REMASTERED & EXPANDED 2CD+DVD / DIGITAL Release date: 29th July 2022 - Newly expanded and 45th anniversary edition of the first Golden Earring live album - Remastered from the original IBC Studios master tapes - Featuring 5 bonus tracks, including 3 previously unreleased recordings from the concert in Brugge in March 1977 - Including a 30-page booklet with a new essay, memorabilia, and photos Founded in 1961 by George Kooymans and Rinus Gerritsen, Dutch rock band Golden Earring (or Golden Earrings, until 1969) started off as a beatband, experimented as a psychedelic quartet and finally became a heavy rock group. Their ninth album Moontan (1973) hit the international album charts and is the band's most successful album in the United States, being the only Golden Earring album to be certified Gold by the RIAA, alongside the classic single “Radar Love”, that reached #10 on the Cash Box Top 100 and #13 in Billboard in the United States. Live is the band’s first live (double) album released in 1977. With its long, spun-out versions of classic Golden Earring songs, this record is vastly different from other live registrations by the band. It's also one of only three albums featuring guitarist Eelco Gelling as a band member, adding a new dimension to the band's sound. Furthermore, this album emphasises Golden Earring's strong rhythm section on swinging songs like “Mad Love's Comin'” and “Radar Love”. Live celebrates its 45th anniversary in 2022 and has been being remastered for the first time from the original IBC Studios master tapes. It includes three bonus tracks recorded during the concert in March 1977 in Brugge and the double A-sided single “Radar Love/Just Like Vince Taylor” which was issued to promote the album and features edit versions of the respectable album tracks. In addition, a DVD entitled Golden Earring Live features four tracks filmed at the IJsselhallen in Zwolle on 28th August 1977, which were broadcasted on Dutch television four weeks later. This footage has been restored and remastered from the original 16 mm film reels. This 2CD+DVD edition of Live is the second volume in a special series of remastered & expanded albums by Golden Earring, overseen by Red Bullet catalogue and band archivist Wouter Bessels. The first volume - Moontan (remastered & expanded) - was released in September 2021 to much critical acclaim. TRACKLISTING 2CD: Original album version remastered plus bonus tracks CD1 1.

Hi, Try this one: Golden Earring - Live (remastered & Expanded) kopen? | platomania.nl Best wishes, Wouter
I am speechless. One of the best live albums ever, remastered en expanded, incl. on dvd the 1977 tv show. Waauw!
@Wouter Hi Wouter Not complaining because I’m delighted at the impending release of this great live album just curious: according to set list.net (or whatever it’s called) Bombay and Sueleen were also played at The Rainbow when some of this album was recorded. I’m wondering, is their exclusion from this project because the tapes don’t exist or the performances weren’t up to scratch? At the end of Vanilla Queen it sounds like the intro to Bombay is faded out for instance. Just asking. Best wishes Slim
Are there any US or UK sites offering the album? It's baffling that it's not showing up on Amazon for instance. Edit: OK, I found it here for @25.84, but it's listed as an import. They aren't distributing it in the US? Golden Earring Live + Live In Zwolle DVD (Remastered & Expanded CD+DVD & Bonus Tracks) [Import] on DeepDiscount
Hi I ordered mine from Amazon in Germany. They’re delivering to me in the uk and total cost is approx €23. You could try there.
It is on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0B4BWSV8R/ref=ppx_od_dt_b_asin_title_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I just ordered it from DeepDiscount for $25.84 + tax and free shipping for orders over $25. Amazon US wants 37.99 and Amazon DE wants €19.99 + €13.79 shipping to the US for a total of €33.78, which is $34.05. It's listed as an import on Amazon US as well as DeepDiscount, so I guess they aren't going to distribute it here. That's too bad for such a great album. Among my top 10 or so live albums.
