Saxon/UK 1990

From the UK tour in spring 1990, on March 22nd, Lincoln recorded a live performance at the Ritz Theater for about 1 hour and 34 minutes in master quality and audience recording. The recorder is the famous Crazy S., and the sound is comparable to a direct line recording, which is truly amazing. And the live performance is the opening, a take that mixes “Star Wars” and Holst’s “Planets”, and the opening where the band plays along with the orchestra of “Jupiter” is one of the highlights. And following the second live album “Rock n’ Roll Gypsies”, it is almost the same set as “Greatest Hits Live!” produced to celebrate the band’s 10th anniversary, and in terms of timing, 1988’s “Destiny” was the most recent studio album at the time, and the fifth song from that album was Ride Like The Wind. After that, the second half of the album included a series of familiar classics, including the early The Eagle Has Landed, and the climax of the main set, Wheels Of Steel, was a great performance of over 11 minutes.
