Silverhead/ Michael Barres - Live At The Rainbow London: Expanded Edition

Digitally remastered and expanded edition of this live album from the under-rated British rockers fronted by Michael Des Barres. Silverhead supported Nazareth at North London's famed Rainbow Theatre on November 9, 1973, they didn't even know that they were being recorded, which no doubt added to the lively and spontaneous recording here. Posthumously released in Japan only in 1975, by which time the band had sadly disbanded, it is a collection of the best songs from their first two albums, plus 'James Dean' from what would have been Silverhead's third LP. As well as an alternative live recording of the aforementioned 'James Dean', plus the obligatory cover of Chuck Berry's 'Roll Over Beethoven', this release also includes the band's previously unreleased In Concert recording at the BBC's Paris Theatre on August 31st, 1973. This reissue features rare memorabilia, exclusive bonus tracks, and liner notes based on new interviews with Silverhead frontman Michael Des Barres, plus founder members Nigel Harrison and Rod Rook Davies.
