King Georges Hall - Cover (front)


This is a 2LP bootleg of the legendary gig in Blackburn during the Tune In - Turn On - Burn Out tour. Legendary because there were "Some Kind Of Stranger" and "Stairway To Heaven" on the setlist - songs that hardly ever got played live; especially the latter one as it is no regular Sisters song. Here, however, they formed part of an extraordinary final medely. Read more about this under Heaven Can Wait or the Blackburn concert entry.

Other than the classic vinyl bootleg Heaven Can Wait produced earlier by the well-known Trade Mark Of Quality label, the present recording contains the whole gig.
