Damn Yankees/CO,USA 1993

The band debuted in 1990 with much fanfare as a supergroup, consisting of Night Ranger’s Jack Blades, Styx’s Tommy Shaw, and Ted Nugent. Then, from their 1993 US tour to release their second album “DON’T TREAD”, the performance at Greenwood Village near Denver on July 5th was recorded in full in official quality, stereo soundboard audio from the radio on-air master. This is a different performance from the 1992 Denver performance, for which there is also an official video, and in addition to the two album numbers, it includes Ted’s “Cat Scratch Fever”, making it the royal road sound of American hard rock. They also performed in Japan six months earlier, and of course the live versions of the moving ballads “Where You Goin’ Now” and “High Enough”, which were well received in Japan, are included in the set. This is a valuable soundboard live performance from their short period of activity, so fans should definitely check it out. 1. INTERVIEW/2. INTRO/3. DON’T TREAD ON ME/4. DAMN YANKEES/5.
