LIVE ALBUMS FROM UFO, ROBIN TROWER AND TEN YEARS AFTER ARRIVE ON OCTOBER 8TH

UFObandsitting400pix Chrysalis will open its vaults in October for a trio of live collections that spotlight rare and unreleased music from three of stellar British artists: Ten Years After, Robin Trower, and UFO.

Ten Years After’s Recorded Live Robin Trower’s State To State: Live Across America 1974-1980, and UFO’s Hot ‘N Live-The Chrysalis Live Anthology 1974-1983 will all be available as 2-CD sets on October 8th for a list price of $18.98 each.

Ten Years After achieved stardom in America thanks to its epic performance at Woodstock in 1968. Over the next five years, the blues-rock band would score eight Top 40 albums in its native England. The band’s classic Recorded Live, originally released in 1973 as a double-LP, has been remastered and expanded with seven previously unreleased performances, including the band’s version of Lightnin’ Hopkins’ I Woke Up This Morning recorded in Rotterdam.

Influential guitarist Robin Trower emerged in the late 1960s as a member of Procol Harum before going on to earn further acclaim as a bandleader. State To State: Live Across America 1974-1980 charts his rise to fame throughout the 1970s, from small clubs to major stadiums.

The collection features 24 previously unreleased live performances recorded in Philadelphia and California (1974), Illinois (1976), Oklahoma (1977) and Missouri (1980). Among the standout tracks are several songs from his gold-certified breakthrough Bridge of Sighs (1974), including Too Rolling Stoned and Day of the Eagle.

UFO is not only one of the UK’s most prolific rock bands, but its music has also influenced an entire generation of modern metal groups like Iron Maiden and Metallica. Hot ‘N Live-The Chrysalis Live Anthology 1974-1983 is a double-disc set packed with rare live tracks from these hard rock pioneers. It features eight previously unreleased performances recorded at the band’s legendary 1980 Marquee shows, including the songs Too Hot to Handle and Love to Love.

The first disc covers guitarist Michael Schenker’s tenure with the group (1974-1978), while the second disc highlights the period with guitarist Paul “Tonka” Chapman (1980-1983). Hot N’ Live includes new liner notes based on a recent interview with bassist and founding member Pete Way.

  1. I must admit i am still stuck in a 70’s time warp, with so many deluxe edition albums due soon and including a 4 disc box set of Humble Pie’s “Performance Rockin’ The Fillmore which will be huge, the above 3 will be a welcome edition, and a couple more which will also get the “royal” treatment, Thin Lizzy, “Thunder & Lightning”, The Scorpions, “Crazy World” . Could not agree more Ryan, UFO an all time classic band, great to see too, some material from “The Wild The Willing” album opening with “Chains Chains. Great stuff
