Peacestreet live in concert at Tivoli, Luzern, Sun, 04 June 1995. Lady P is singing Simmer Down. I only have two tunes from this concert. It was a mystical ambiance. This only live versions of “Oriental Woman” and “Cleopatra” illustrates it perfectly. We played two sets. After the first set, my headache was on a […]

The Selecter live at Sedel Fri, 03-February-1995 with DJ Ras Claude Pauline Black is my favourite of all time. She is lovely, when she tells me, that it’s great to play for cows (outside the Sedel, there are cows, real ones). She makes me fear, when she smash an apple against her driver, because he’s […]

The Ventilators plus DJ Ras Claude live in concert at Hotel Löwen in Solothurn on Fri, 25-March-1994. There is not much to say about. I went there with my suitcase full of records.
