Mama’s Boys/London,UK 1988

From the 1988 UK tour of Mama’s Boys, who gained popularity in the 80’s as a rising star of Irish HR, the gig in Astoria, London on February 18th was performed for 79 minutes, featuring the original original owned by the famous taper Crazy S.・Direct recording from the audience master. First of all, we released “GROWING UP THE HARD WAY” in November of the previous year, which is a valuable live recording from the four-member era when John McManus was unable to sing due to a throat injury, and Keith Murrell, formerly of AIRRACE/LIONHEART, was invited. From the accompanying UK tour. And not only is Keith’s vocals good, but the playing of the three McManus brothers who support him is also wonderful, especially the late Tommy’s drumming, which hits out a great groove, and the combination with John’s melodic melodiousness is as expected from the brothers. Although it was a time when they were reborn as a melodic band with four members, the stage performance was as passionate as ever, and as a band with few sound sources, fans must listen. 1. Intro 2.
