TWISTED SISTER - Double-Disc Live At Hammersmith, Club Daze 2: Live In The Bars Due In May
April 18, 2012, 12 years ago
Eagle Rock Entertainment/Armoury Records will get heavy on May 29 when it re-releases the double-disc TWISTED SISTER's Live At Hammersmith as well as Club Daze 2: Live In The Bars. The two CD packages, sold separately, are an important part of this great band’s legacy as it shows just how Twisted they became over time.
Club Daze 2: Live In The Bars starts with two 1984 burners ('Never Say Never' and 'Blastin’ Fast & Loud') that didn’t make their Stay Hungry album. Both songs were finally completed in 2001. The next seven tracks were recorded for a 1979 Halloween radio show that never aired. The final four tracks—including Twisted covers of LITTLE RICHARD ('Long Tall Sally') and CHUCK BERRY ('Johnny B. Goode')-were taken from WLIR and WBAB radio sessions. Bassist Mark Mendoza has remastered all 13 tracks for this release.
Live At Hammersmith is a double-doozy: a 1984 blockbuster live performance at London’s famed Hammersmith Odeon with two bonus covers from Portchester, New York in 1979 - ELVIS PRESLEY’s 'Jailhouse Rock' and the 1951 jump blues 'Train Kept A’Rollin’' that’s been performed by everyone from JOHNNY BURNETTE TO THE YARDBIRDS TO LED ZEPPELIN TO JEFF BECK. The Hammersmith show is an action-ball of 14 well-muscled metal jams which includes 'We’re Not Gonna Take It', 'You Can’t Stop Rock’n’Roll', 'Under The Blade' and 'Burn In Hell'.
As the legend of Twisted Sister continues to expand worldwide and the demand for their live shows growing larger every year, these two discs complete the re-mastering process of the entire Twisted Sister catalog on Eagle Rock/Armoury Records just in time for the summer festival season.
