An exciting archive release from Whitesnake, showing the band in an evolutional phase which would soon seen them reach the incredible success of their 1987 self-titled release. Live In 84 Back To The Bone showcases the fabulous line-up of David Coverdale, John Sykes, Cozy Powell and Neil Murray live at the Super Rock Festival in Japan. Also included, as a very special bonus, the last live performance of Jon Lord with the band, recorded in Sweden. [Lord would reunite with Deep Purple shortly after this performance.] All in all, this is a stunning portrait of a band headed quickly towards their creative and performance peaks! An absolute must have for all Whitesnake and David Coverdale fans.
«Тяжелый металл» называют и совестью рок-н-ролла, и его могильщиком. С конца 1960-х и до наших дней это совершенно самостоятельная музыкальная вселенная со своими остывающими и сверхновыми звездами, своей табелью о рангах, своим кодексом чести. «Металлические» короли и их свита не обращают внимания на то, что происходит в других мирах.
В однообразии и нормативности «металлической» музыки - залог ее поразительной живучести. Здесь, как в каком-нибудь эстрадном свинге, достаточно было открыть пару-тройку эффектных ходов, чтобы создать целую эстетику. Навязчивый рифф, атакующий припев, инструментальное соло - три заповеди «тяжелого металла», объединенные идеей форсированного звука.
This is the long awaited 'Thunder And Lightning Tour'; the tour that was to prove Phil Lynott's and Thin Lizzy's last. The year is 1983, the venue Dublin and the stage is rockin'! To add to the already charged atmosphere of a concert in waiting, we have fast-forwarded in time to include nostalgic comment from Phil's band mates Brian Robertson and Eric Bell recalling their eventful times together, plus the indestructible footballing legend George Best and musician Brush Shiel, recalling their many memories of the rocker and friend. But all this is merely a prelude to what is a pulverising gig containing all conquering favourites such as 'Whiskey In The Jar' and 'Dancing In The Moonlight' and many more. The 'Thunder And Lightning Tour' is quite simply the greatest performance from a group who were at their electrifying best.
This is an excellent video from this legendary band's farewell tour. Tracklist: -Introduction by Pete Drummond- Jailbreak / This Is The One / Cold Sweat / The Sun Goes Down / Holy War / The Boys Are Back In Town / Rosalie / Baby Please Don't Go
