Kolors Band Tour

Well, I finally recieved a copy of the 12-13-84 Kolors Band show from Germany. I really enjoyed it...the energy of the crowd was great! The band played very well, and Peter sounded great!

Anyone have any earlier Peter stuff after he left the Mac?

I'll exchange trading lists.

You mean the Stuttgart show? Peter sings well, but you can tell from the guitar
playing he wasn't that well. It simple but tasteful though.
You noticed that the other guitar player, Alfred Bannerman, plays many of the solos?
The fast ones.
I've listed the post-Mac, pre-Splinter Green shows I have here. Would be wonderful
if anyone has more from this era. No sight of any late-70's gigs yet (with Snowy White).

Hopefully the U.S is next.

On the recording I recieved...a very nice audience recording...the date and city is clearly mentioned by one of the band members as Dec. 13, 84' Franfurt, Germany...I agree Peter's playing isn't as dominant as with the Mac...I'm finally glad to be able to hear some live stuff between the Mac and Splinter Group

Hey, thanks for the correct date.
What's interesting is that, in Martin Celmins's book on Peter, he claims that
Kolors disbanded "in fall 1984", but from recorded evidence the band carried on until
the very end of the year, perhaps even into early 1985?

No problem Dino...the venue is listed as the Sinkkasten(master), Frankfurt Germany(West at that point in history)...I haven't read Martin's book...could a link be provided with the name of this book...I would like to read it!
