@IngoDE Cheers mate! Since uploading this, I've found out were it was recorded. It's been a bit of a mystery until a few weeks ago. I'm so glad its been sorted.
hi...me again ,-))) look what i found in the net : >>> King Is White and in the Crowd Played live before: yes This dark atmospheric song featured lyrics that were inspired by the assassination of Muhammad Anwar el Sadat. It's live debut was supposedly in Schuettorf Rock Festival, June 5th, 1982. The song stayed in the setlist during Tour Du Monde, until it was dropped to make room for new material for Once Upon a Time Tour in 1985-1986.
Hi Tony.... i´m sooo amazed cause the guys performe at my hometown in germany...exactly 29 years later i´ll see them live again!!! crazy but wonderful. the concert in front of our "rock´n pop museum" will start at 6:00 pm lokal time at may 21 !!! wowww !!!!!! the location calls Gronau 48599, germany
Dag Gerda, het is nu 2021, maar ik ben nieuwsgierig naar die opnames: ik was daar, ik stond vooraan, totaal gebiogoleerd door vooral de bassist. Mooie tijden
hi tony, you wrote that this recording was in early summer 82! location still unknown?? could it be, that it was in germany? at 1:10 you showed a pic from the legendary concert in schüttorf, germany. i was there. it was really fantastic.... 19.05.1982
This is a perfect example why I would not see Simple Minds today, even that 5x5 tour playing old stuff...Jim Kerr does not sing like he used to..the old music has the tension, Jim sings the old stuff with the same stadium rock croon as post 1982 minds stuff. The only way to play the old stuff is with the same drama and venom as shown here.
This is one of my favourite simple minds songs ever new gold dream is probably one of my best albums ever love it thank you for sharing
My favorite song, good memories, dancing in the Swingcafe in Arnhem.
The importance of Derek and Mick and cannot be understated
