KOLORS and the gig in Köln

[manfred]

Hi dino,

Spartacus R. is a bass player. His real name is Durban LaVerde. So I think that's indeed the name the announcer gave on your copy. Are you sure about the other names. The man from WDR wrote indeed about a 7-person line-up as you too listed one in your posting.

Best wishes and regards
Manfred

P.S. By the way: WDR releases often DVDs of the gigs of their Rockpalast Nights. Maybe they plan to issue Peter's/Kolors' performance soon.

Aha, thanks for that info... Yes', I'm 100 % sure about the other names.
Except perhaps Alan Barnes..a bit of a mystery man...haven't found any info on him. That's the name the speaker gives, though.
Mick Weaver is not on this show - he joined in spring '83 it seems.

So...
Peter Green : Vocals, lead guitar
Alan Barnes : electic piano, vocals (lead vocals on "Words That Bite")
Emmanuel Rentzos: organ, vocals (lead vocals on "Make it Right")
Stephen Rene: guitar, vocals (sometimes named as Stephan).
Durban LaVerde aka Spartacus R.: bass
Godfrey MacLean : Drums
Jeff Whittaker : Congas, percussion


One problem, though - why do WDR refer to this concert as being from Cologne? All evidence points to Markthalle, Hamburg (the group played in Cologne on November 29, 1982).



Ken - the announcer comes on after the concert. I only have this on a cd-r you sent me.

Hi,

the Rockpalast Archiv lists the gig for Cologne and for the 4th of December 1982. Look here:

http://www.rockpalastarchiv.de/rp-chron.html

But maybe that is just so wrong as the line-up the WDR had listed for Kolors in the past. They did it like that:

KOLORS (feat.) PETER GREENBAUM
year: 1982 month: 12 day: 04
location: Markthalle Hamburg
setlist:


01 Feelings (6'30'')
02 Black Magic Woman (5'20'')
03 Words That Bite (7'10'')
04 Loser Two Times (4'05'')
05 White Boy (5'00'')
06 In The Skies (7'40'')
07 Give Thanks (6'00'')
08 Cryin' Won't Bring You Back (6'40'')
09 Make It Right (6'40'')
10 The Green Manalishi (5'40'')
11 Albatros (6'15'')
12 Earth Games (5'00'')
13 Man Of The World (6'45'')


Peter Green : Vocals, lead guitar
Mick Weaver : Organ, piano
Spartacus R. : Vocals, bass guitar
Godfrey McLean : Drums
Jeff Whittaker : Congas, percussion

Actually, it's listed as Hamburg on that page :


1982/12/04 KOLORS (feat.) PETER GREENBAUM (Markthalle Hamburg)

[manfred]

Oh! You're completely right! But the man from WDR wrote Cologne to me. The WDR too is from Cologne, - so I thought it must have been right. But now I read it too - Hamburg must have been the place where it came to stay - sorry. So I've changed the name of this thread now.

Best wishes

It is not possible for me to change the name of the thread. Maybe the administrator will do it for me.

Not important What's important is we fans know more than the producers of the show!
