The self-titled 1970 album by Dutch rockers Golden Earring showed the band embarking on a harder, rougher musical journey than their previous work. Clearly influenced by bands like Led Zeppelin, The Who and The Doors, the band evolved from a 60's beat-group into a 70's rock band. The new (and still current) line-up of the foursome, fronted by charismatic singer Barry Hay, proved a successful one. Golden Earring includes their hit single "Back Home", peaking at number 1 in the Dutch chart. Blues rock and hard rock are combined on tracks such as I'm Going to Send My Pigeons to the Sky and As Long as the Wind Blows. Its the start of the decennium in which they recorded some of their best albums.

Together is a 1972 album by the world-famous rock band the Golden Earring. It is the immediate predecessor to Moontan (1973), and is as strong an example of Golden Earring's particular blend of hard rocking Euro-prog as you are likely to hear. The group blurs the strict lines and weaves elements of each genre into a distinctive style that gives the songs their unique flavor. Most famous album tracks are Buddy Joe and From Heaven from Hell.

The rock band Golden Earring is one of the world's best-known Dutch bands. During the 70's they even made it to the Billboard charts by releasing Radar Love (USA 1974). The band performed together for 60 years, bringing their big hits to large audiences.

Different track listing for the Canada\USA Moontan releases!

In 2022 a 2CD and 2LP remastered & expanded Moontan version was released. This release contains preliminary versions and bonustracks like Radar Love B-side The Song Is Over.

Originally released in 1973, this is the album that raised the band to an international level of popularity, primarily on the strength of the hit single and enduring radio favorite "Radar Love". Moontan still is the band's most successful album internationally and paved the way for these Dutch rockers in the USA (where "Candy's Going Bad" was also released as a single). Around the time of the album's release, Golden Earring toured the States with opening acts that would become huge rock bands only a few years later (Aerosmith and KISS). They also shared stages with names like Led Zeppelin, The Who, and Pink Floyd.

The line-up of Golden Earring at that time was Barry Hay, George Kooymans, Rinus Gerritsen and Cesar Zuiderwijk, with special guests Eelco Gelling (slide guitar), Bertus Borgers (saxophone) and Patricia Paay ("lady vocal") on this particular LP. The record combines progressive epics and heavy rockers, and sometimes even combines both elements in one song. Moontan is not just a necessity for Golden Earring fans, it's worthwhile listen for anyone interested in Seventies Rock at its most adventurous.

Golden Earring were active for 50 years from 1961 until 2021. Their final line-up still included two founding members George Kooymans (vocals and guitar) and Rinus Gerritsen (bass, keyboard) along with Barry Hay (vocals, guitar, flute and saxophone), a member since 1968, and Cesar Zuiderwijk (drums), a member since 1970. They have had over 40 hits and 30 albums, many achieving either gold or platinum status in their home country, The Netherlands. They are best known for their 1973 hit single Radar Love and their 1982 single Twilight Zone.

To The Hilt was released in 1976 and is considered to be one of their most complex albums. More than half of the songs are over 7 minutes long and musically the songs are very diverse. It is the last record that features Robert Jan Stips on keyboards.

Album renamed to Mad Love in Canada and the USA with different tracklisting, released 1977)

Dutch rock band Golden Earring released their twelfth studio album Contraband in 1976. It was the first full album to feature Eelco Gelling as the band's guitarist. With seven rocking tracks, this album is dominated by guitars - as demonstrated by lead single Bombay and by the long guitar solos on Con Man and Mad Love's Comin'. Contraband was well received by music critics and charted at #12 in the Dutch album charts.

Live is a double live album released by Dutch rock band Golden Earring in 1977. With its long, spun out versions of classic Golden Earring songs (lasting between 5 and 12 minutes each), this record is vastly different than other live registrations by the band. It's also one of only three albums where guitarist Eelco Gelling was a band member, adding a new dimension to the band's sound. Furthermore, this album emphasises Golden Earring's strong rhythm section on swinging songs like Mad Love's Comin' and Radar Love.

This double vinyl set Live captures their energetic live act, featuring extended and groovy versions of their songs. Including some of their biggest hits until then: She Flies On Strange Wings and of course a lengthy rendition of Radar Love! Live is considered a milestone in the impressive career of one of Holland's finest rock bands: Golden Earring. Recorded at The Rainbow Theatre in London, this is the band at their best.

Live celebrated its 45th anniversary in 2022 and was therefore being remastered for the first time from the original master tapes. This 2LP is available as a 45th anniversary edition of 2000 individually numbered copies on Blade Bullet coloured vinyl.

Cut is an album by Dutch hard rock band Golden Earring, released in 1982. It is one of their most popular releases to date, as it contains the international hit Twilight Zone, written by guitarist/vocalist George Kooymans. Twilight Zone reached No. 1 in both the Netherlands and Billboard's Hot Mainstream Rock Tracks, while also reaching the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100. The album also features fan favourite The Devil Made Me Do It.

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of Cut, the recordings were being remastered for the first time from the original master tapes. Cut (Remastered 2022) is available as a 40th anniversary edition of 2000 individually numbered copies on Blade Bullet coloured vinyl and includes an insert.

In 2012, Golden Earring released new work for the first time in nine years: their 25th studio album Tits 'N Ass. The album was presented in Paradiso, Amsterdam as a celebration of the band's 50th anniversary. In addition to the album, a documentary (Making Tits 'N Ass) was made of the songwriting process. Golden Earring might be the oldest and most long-lived rock band in Holland, they certainly have not lost any of their energy as George Kooymans, Barry Hay, Rinus Gerritsen and Cesar Zuiderwijk proved with flying colours on Tits 'N Ass.

Tits 'N Ass became available in 2022 as a limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on translucent red coloured vinyl. This 2LP is housed in a gatefold sleeve and includes an insert with lyrics.

Additional info from the Back Home Complete concert liner notes about the adjusted sound: A few notes from the re-issue producer Wouter Bessels: One of the most frequently asked questions I have been asked over the years was if the Leiden 1984 concert would ever get a full release. Certainly a good idea, as the performance captured the band in high spirits, having just come of - what turned out to be - their last US concert tour. The concert was recorded on 24-track analog tape and mixed down to 2-track digital (Sony PCM 1610 encoded) tape - with an analog 2-track safety copy running along. Upon first listening we found out that the digital tapes delivered a much more solid and balanced sound, while the mixdown tapes also provided separate 'music' and 'ambience' tapes. That gave me the opportunity to re-balance the ambience sounds (the sound of the hall and the audience) and the music. I wanted the listener to be there right in the middle of the hal on that evening of 23rd June 1984. That process took some time to finish, but I think it's worth the effort. Consequently, this release does not only contain the first complete version from start to finish of the gig that night, but also gives some more audience-feeling to the overall final mix, compared to earlier releases that contain parts of the Leiden 1984 gig. I hope you enjoy this set as much as we have enjoyed working on these historic Golden Earring live recordings. Wouter Bessels, November 2022.
