Weekend WhirliGIG Wish – Back To Amsterdam, 1980

Posted on September 1, 2017October 6, 2017 By Priptona No Comments on Weekend WhirliGIG Wish – Back To Amsterdam, 1980


Back to Amsterdam, for the first night of the two weekend gigs they did on March 22/23, 1980. The second gig was recorded for Dutch radio, this first one is a bootleg…but considering the passage of time and recording techniques for “home jobs” back then (plus endless shares, and shares, retaping, copies of copies), it stands up well. I was dubious, due to the dates, that this was a different gig to the first I shared but, giving it a listen (a few minutes before I drifted off to sleep) last night, it is a different gig indeed.

Enjoy!
