Info recently added!April 27 2023 - Nice online article about Radar Love 50 years, Barry Hay explaining the song.

Barry Hay on 50 years of Radar love and a spicy cover. Radar Love Golden Earring, forever etched in the marble of rock history, rings through the airwaves for half a century this year. The iconic song has its own website and will also receive a real biography in August – Radar Lovethe ultimate driving song. Subway spoke with singer Barry Hay who, together with guitarist George Kooymans, is the spiritual father of the international hit, which is still as popular 50 years later.

Those were the days of booze, drugs and ladies – the three pillars of rock ‘n’ roll that Barry Hay wasn’t averse to at the time. We are writing 1973, the year of the energy crisis and the car-free Sunday, the opening of the Netherlands’ first nudist beach, the stranding of offshore station Radio Veronica off the coast of Scheveningen and the year of birth of Yvon Jaspers and Frans Bauer.

The singer of Golden Earring, then 24 years young, received the lyrics for a song by guitarist George Kooymans in the last days of December 1972, but not on paper. According to Barry Hay himself, this was mainly due to the aforementioned temptations that, as said, he always enjoyed. Hay: "I lived at the Noordeinde in The Hague. In a real transit house where it was daily the sweet raid. Jan en Alleman came to drink in and prepared for the traditional night out until the early hours. At one point I yelled at the whole mess: 'And now everyone get out! I need to finish that text'."

From bathtub to car. It was his twentieth attempt, but this time a successful one. In three hours’ time (‘Of course I was very sorry that I couldn’t go to the pub with me’). RadarLove on paper. “George’s demo," he says 50 years later, "was a real song at first. A smooth melody without the intro and middle part that is so typical Radar Love are. During studio sessions, the song took on its final shape with input from all four of us. Rinus Gerritsen, for example, was responsible for the beginning. I wanted to make it a really masculine text. My initial first line was, "I’m sitting in a bathtub..." Well, that didn't sound very masculine on closer inspection, did it? So it became: I've been driving all night, my hands wet on the wheel."

He acquired the title of the rock song on the road from Loosdrecht to Hilversum. There he passed a factory building on which stood a statue with wings. A beautiful symbol, the singer thought, for the telepathic love that the main character and his long-distance lover cherish for each other: ‘We’ve got a thing that’s called RadarLove…’ Hay: "I was always interested in Extra sensory perception. The so-called sixth sense and theme of Radar Love.'

Barry Hay: ‘People didn’t think it was a number for the international market’ Without hindsight – the group knew it had a rock-solid song in its composition, Hay recalls. “As a band we wanted to look beyond the Netherlands. We thought this song had potential for the English-speaking market. Tight and tough rock with a lot of momentum and passion.” Not everyone in their own country shared that view. Felix Meurders, radio DJ and critic for Muziekkrant OOR, thought the song was rather pretentious and didn’t give a dime for the Earring’s international ambitions. It is distantly reminiscent of the colossal blunder of Decca Records that rejected the then unknown Beatles in 1962. An interesting detail: bassist Rinus Gerritsen still has Meurders’ framed review hanging next to the many precious metals that the Earring contains. Radar Love acquired all over the world.

Radar Love became the hoped-for global triumph of the formation from The Hague. Number one in the Netherlands and Spain, in the top 10 in Great Britain and West Germany and more than successful in the United States (13), Australia (10) and Canada (12). The hit from Holland ended up on the album Moontan (1973) and that record also has its own story. Barry Hay, who had attended art school for three years, was responsible for the spicy cover, on which a voluptuous, exotic and, above all, extremely scantily clad woman poses, the Australian model Jilly Johnson. The female fans of the Earring also got their money’s worth: the inner sleeve shows the completely naked and muscular rear of Hay himself, including his firm but tight buttocks.

Excelsior Record label info over Mist, het 3e Vreemde Kostgangers album: "Waardig slotakkoord voor illuster trio" (Boudewijn de Groot)

Met het album Mist maakt Vreemde Kostgangers de trilogie vol. "Het is een waardig slotakkoord voor een illuster trio", zegt Boudewijn de Groot. Met Henny Vrienten en George Kooymans vormde hij het drietal dat in hechte samenwerking een blijvend oeuvre schiep. Dat blijkt ook nu weer, in de dertien songs van Mist. De songs zijn samen gemaakt, maar dragen herkenbare handtekeningen. Zoals van Vrienten. Tijd Tekort (met de zin "zal ik ooit aan liggen kunnen wennen") klinkt nu wrang, maar het relativerend filosofische Niet Wederzijds en de liefdevolle afsluiter Zeg Me typeren toch de lichtvoetige lyricus. Maar Mist wordt evenzeer gedragen door de andere kostgangers. Kooymans bezingt zijn 88 gitaren in Fender Strat, is grappig in Lippen en voert De Liefde Kent Geen Tijd van Thé Lau uit. De Groot excelleert in Het Einde Van Misschien. Het album is een passend vaarwel, met een mooie hoestekst: "In liefdevolle herinnering aan Henny. Het was zijn uitdrukkelijke wens dat dit album er zou komen."

Info recently added!January 14 2023 - Today George Kooymans was appointed honorary citizen of Rijkevorsel (Belgium)!

George Kooymans of rock group Golden Earring was made an honorary citizen of the Belgian municipality of Rijkevorsel on Saturday. The group's guitarist and co-founder from The Hague described it as a "huge honor" to the Flemish newspaper Het Nieuwsblad. Kooymans, who was born in The Hague but has lived in Rijkevorsel in Belgium for decades, received an honorary citizenship certificate from the municipality of Rijkevorsel at the town hall on Saturday January 14 2023. His wife Millie, their two children and three grandchildren were there, the Flemish newspaper wrote. Kooymans' friends approached the city council with a request to make him an honorary citizen. "When this news became known, we had a lot of positive feedback at Rijkevorsel," Kooyman's friend Stanny van Osteyn told the newspaper. "Thanks to his labors, George has moved a stone into a musical river. However, he and his family have always remained ordinary people without delusions of grandeur." Kooymans is pleased with the appointment and speaks of a "great honour". "We've been living in Rijkevorsel for almost fifty years and feel at home there. We ended up here by chance. The intention was to move to the US in the early 1970s, but it wasn't easy. That's why we went to Rijkevorsel in Belgium to look. I lived here for more than half my life, however, I remained Dutch. I did not adopt the dialect." Golden Earring is best known for such big hits as Radar Love, Twilight Zone, and When The Lady Smiles. Golden Earring had to stop performing in February 2021 because Kooymans suffers from ALS disease.

Recorded in Brugge on 18th March 1977 Fightin' Windmills and Eight Miles High are fascinating alternatives to the versions that ended up on the original Live album, while I Need Love has been rarely performed by the band back in the days and luckily was caught on tape on that particular night in Belgium.

Info recently added!May 17 2022 - Officiële aankondiging namens Red Bullet Productions: KOOYMANS & CARILLO - MIRAGE CD / digital Release datum 17 juni 2022.

- Tweede album van Golden Earring gitarist/zanger/oprichter George Kooymans en de Amerikaanse gitarist Frank Carillo
- 10 nieuwe songs
- Inclusief Kooymans solo bonus track 'Seasons' – oorspronkelijk in 1969 geschreven als debuutsingle voor Earth & Fire
- Artwork door George Bixby
- Gemixt door John Sonneveld

Twaalf jaar na hun debuutplaat On Location zijn George Kooymans en Frank Carillo terug met hun tweede album Mirage. George en Frank werkten gedurende drie jaar in verschillende studio’s in meerdere landen aan tien songs, die de eerlijke en organische chemie tussen beiden laten horen. Een artistieke topprestatie met een breed scala aan muzikale invloeden. "Vier landen, een te gekke lijst van 'real characters', soms gescheiden door een oceaan en met veel lachsalvo's: zo is Mirage ontstaan. We schreven de liedjes in de keuken van George. Terwijl hij aan het koken was, zat ik op de gitaar te tokkelen. Daarna begon hij te spelen en ontfermde ik mij over de snijplank. We houden van koken." – George Kooymans & Frank Carillo

George en Frank worden begeleid door onder meer Paul Orofino (banjo, gitaar, Hammond orgel), Rinus Gerritsen (bas), Bobby Langenberg (drums), Ocki Klootwijk (bas), John Sonneveld (toetsen) en Georges dochter Cassy (samenzang). "Het was geen bewuste keuze om een CD te maken. We wilden gewoon schrijven en opnemen, omdat we dat simpelweg leuk vinden. Na een tijdje bleek dat we genoeg materiaal voor een nieuwe plaat hadden. Dus, bij deze!" – George Kooymans & Frank Carillo.

Tracks:
01. Mirage (5:01)

Info recently added!March 28 2022 - Soon to be released the last and final Golden Earring album: GOLDEN EARRING YOU KNOW WE LOVE YOU! - LIVE AHOY 2019 Release date: 1st April 2022

Legendary Dutch rockband Golden Earring's final 2019 performance on double CD and DVD in a fold-out digipak Featuring Radar Love, Twilight Zone and When The Lady Smiles NTSC Region Free DVD directed (six cameras) by director Marcel de Vré Audio mix by John Sonneveld Including replica of the concert poster, fan photos and liner notes about the event and the aftermath.

Golden Earring's last performance ever was held at the Rotterdam Ahoy on 16th November 2019.

By accident, visual director Marcel de Vré (who had captured the Golden Earring Five Zero Show at the Amsterdam Ziggodome in 2015) recorded that final performance. He was hired to take care of the video content and live camera shots that would be projected on a big video screen hanging on the back of the stage. Without the band being aware, De Vré recorded the show and archived the complete footage.

Luckily, excellent audio and video was available of a tremendous concert, that sadly turned out to be Golden Earring's final performance - with this historical release as a result.

When in February 2021 co-founder George Kooymans had to announce his having to leave the band with immediate effect, due to health issues. Golden Earring decided to break up. With the sad knowledge that the Rotterdam show had been the final performance of Golden Earring, the audio and visual files were unshelved in close cooperation with the band, Marcel de Vré and John Sonneveld - the band's long time technical assistance and producer. The artwork - based on an idea by Barry Hay - includes a replica of the original concert poster, but also features a collage of photos that fans of Golden Earring submitted during the past year. The result is the double CD/DVD You Know We Love You! - Live Ahoy 2019, that give Golden Earring (and its fans) a dignified goodbye so well deserved.

You Know We Love You! - Live Ahoy 2019 will be released by Red Bullet Productions on 1st April 2022 and will be available through all renowned worldwide music dealers and online shops. A special limited edition 3LP - gold coloured vinyl in a trifold gatefold sleeve - will be released by Music On Vinyl later in 2022.

GOLDEN EARRING MOONTAN ALBUM - REMASTERED & EXPANDED re-release on 10 September 2021!

• New expanded 2CD edition of the 1973 classic Golden Earring album, featuring the worldwide hit Radar Love
• For the first time ever remastered from the first-generation master tapes
• Featuring 9 previously unreleased mixes/different versions
• Featuring 6 bonus tracks, including Big Tree, Blue Sea (1973 version) and Instant Poetry
• Including a 32-page booklet with a new essay, memorabilia, and photos

Founded in 1961 by George Kooymans and Rinus Gerritsen, Dutch rock band Golden Earring (or Golden Earrings, until 1969) started off as a beatband, experimented as a psychedelic quartet and finally became a heavy rock group. Their ninth album Moontan (1973) hit the international album charts and is the band's most successful album in the United States, being the only Golden Earring album to be certified Gold by the RIAA.
The single Radar Love reached #10 on the Cash Box Top 100 and #13 in Billboard in the United States. It also hit the Top 10 in many countries - including The Netherlands (#1), Spain (#1), Germany (#5), United Kingdom (#7), Canada (#10) and Australia (#10) - and consequently became a bonafide international classic rock song.

In June 2020, the original mastertapes of this classic album were unearthed for a long-awaited remastered edition - 48 years after its original release. Alongside a fresh remaster from the IBC Studios first-generation album masters, six bonus tracks have been added, including the 1973 remake of Big Tree, Blue Sea that was added to the UK and US editions of the original album, the original single versions of Radar Love and Candy’s Going Bad, the B-side The Song Is Over and the 1974 single Instant Poetry.

In addition, a second CD entitled The Moontan Sessions features nine previously unreleased mixes/different versions that give insight into the whole production process of the album. Taken from a variety of archive tapes, these include the original basic recordings of Radar Love, The Song Is Over, Are You Receiving Me and Vanilla Queen, taped in early 1973 at Phonogram Studios in Hilversum (The Netherlands), which were overdubbed and finished at London’s IBC Studios in July 1973. All tracks have been 24 bit/192 kHz remastered from the original mastertapes.

A special 2LP edition of Moontan (remastered & expanded) released by Music On Vinyl will follow in early 2022. The release date now has been set to March 04 2022. This 2CD edition of Moontan starts off a special series of remastered & expanded albums by Golden Earring, overseen by Red Bullet catalogue and band archivist Wouter Bessels.

AFSCHEID VAN GOLDEN EARRING. HET UUR VAN DE WOLF: THAT DAY – AFSCHEID VAN GOLDEN EARRING
Uitzending: maandag 8 en 9 november om 20.30 uur bij de NTR op NPO2

Website: hetuurvandewolf.nl

Op 5 februari 2021 wordt bekend dat gitarist George Kooijmans lijdt aan de progressieve ziekte ALS. Daarmee komt een abrupt einde aan de legendarische Haagse rockband Golden Earring. Het Uur van de Wolf blikt maandag 8 en dinsdag 9 november terug op hun zestig jarige bestaan in het tweeluik That Day – afscheid van Golden Earring. De documentaire bevat nog niet eerder vertoonde concertfragmenten, werkopnamen en nieuw archiefmateriaal, deels afkomstig uit privé-archieven.

Regisseur Marcel de Vré stelt zichzelf in That Day de vraag hoe het de band is gelukt zestig jaar overeind te blijven. Zijn film maakt duidelijk dat dit niet vanzelfsprekend was. De personele bezetting wordt regelmatig aangepast, er ontbreekt een echte leider, de onderlinge communicatie is beperkt, de heren hebben een hekel aan repeteren en worstelen regelmatig met onzekerheid.

Het turbulente leven van Golden Earring wordt in That Day gereconstrueerd aan de hand van de persoonlijke getuigenissen van direct betrokkenen uit heden en verleden. Mannen van het eerste uur als drummer Fred van der Hilst, gitarist Peter de Ronde en zanger Frans Krassenburg schetsen het beeld van de jaren zestig, waarin George Kooijmans drukker is met zijn duiven dan met zijn gitaar en Rinus Gerritsen noodgedwongen bas gaat spelen zonder een noot te kunnen lezen. "We ontwikkelden ons al snel van bubblegumbandje naar rock and roll band", zegt Krassenburg, die begrijpt dat hij plaats moet maken voor Barry Hay. Cesar Zuiderwijk wordt de nieuwe drummer en zorgt voor meer stabiliteit.

Willem van Kooten, nauw betrokken bij de opkomst van de Golden Earring, herinnert zich dat de band in Radar Love geen hit zag. Hij bedingt dat het nummer de B-zijde van de nieuwe single wordt. De rest is geschiedenis. Golden Earring blijkt rijp voor Amerika. Bij het vertrek op Schiphol is er veel media-aandacht. Van Kooten: : "In werkelijkheid waren de vergunningen niet op orde. De mannen zijn via een achterdeur naar mijn kantoor vertrokken en hebben daar dagenlang chocomel gedronken en gebowld."

De documentaire staat stil bij goede en slechte tijden. Het uitblijven van nieuwe hits in de jaren tachtig doet de bandleden besluiten met een laatste LP afscheid te nemen. Tot het succes van Twilight Zone plotseling nieuwe kansen biedt. Begin jaren negentig kondigt zich een financiële crisis aan. Als Van Kooten geen krediet meer verleent, brengt The Naked Truth uitkomst. Deze akoestische interpretatie van eerdere hits wordt met een miljoen verkochte exemplaren het grootste succes.

Het zijn uiteindelijk niet de artistieke experimenten met musici van buiten, de gevoeligheid voor trends en mode, niet de heimwee van George tijdens de reizen door de VS en ook niet de financiële worstelingen die het einde brengen, maar de gezondheid van componist/zanger/gitarist Kooymans. De mannen doen er direct het zwijgen toe. Saxofonist Bertus Borgers: "Ze willen geen BN’ers zijn, geen bekendheid." De documentaire haakt aan bij de actualiteit. Jaap Schut, eigenaar van Nederlands enige rockmuseum, bezoekt de burgemeester van Den Haag en bespreekt het ontwerp voor een monument op het Malieveld.

In de week voorafgaand aan That Day zendt NPO2 Extra een week lang concerten en documentaires uit over de Golden Earring. Radio 2 zal in het weekeinde van 5 en 6 november tracks van de Golden Earring laten horen en de aflevering uit de video-serie Classic Tracks over Radar Love opnieuw in de etalage zetten. De Nacht van de Popmuziek zal op zaterdag 6 november op NPO3 aandacht besteden aan de documentaire.

Info recently added!August 29 2021 - Great news about a Moontan album expanded version re-release on 2CD and 2LP!

GOLDEN EARRING MOONTAN ALBUM - REMASTERED & EXPANDED re-release on 10 September 2021!

• New expanded 2CD edition of the 1973 classic Golden Earring album, featuring the worldwide hit Radar Love
• For the first time ever remastered from the first-generation master tapes
• Featuring 9 previously unreleased mixes/different versions
• Featuring 6 bonus tracks, including Big Tree, Blue Sea (1973 version) and Instant Poetry
• Including a 32-page booklet with a new essay, memorabilia, and photos

Founded in 1961 by George Kooymans and Rinus Gerritsen, Dutch rock band Golden Earring (or Golden Earrings, until 1969) started off as a beatband, experimented as a psychedelic quartet and finally became a heavy rock group. Their ninth album Moontan (1973) hit the international album charts and is the band's most successful album in the United States, being the only Golden Earring album to be certified Gold by the RIAA.
The single Radar Love reached #10 on the Cash Box Top 100 and #13 in Billboard in the United States. It also hit the Top 10 in many countries - including The Netherlands (#1), Spain (#1), Germany (#5), United Kingdom (#7), Canada (#10) and Australia (#10) - and consequently became a bonafide international classic rock song.

In June 2020, the original mastertapes of this classic album were unearthed for a long-awaited remastered edition - 48 years after its original release. Alongside a fresh remaster from the IBC Studios first-generation album masters, six bonus tracks have been added, including the 1973 remake of Big Tree, Blue Sea that was added to the UK and US editions of the original album, the original single versions of Radar Love and Candy’s Going Bad, the B-side The Song Is Over and the 1974 single Instant Poetry.

In addition, a second CD entitled The Moontan Sessions features nine previously unreleased mixes/different versions that give insight into the whole production process of the album. Taken from a variety of archive tapes, these include the original basic recordings of Radar Love, The Song Is Over, Are You Receiving Me and Vanilla Queen, taped in early 1973 at Phonogram Studios in Hilversum (The Netherlands), which were overdubbed and finished at London’s IBC Studios in July 1973. All tracks have been 24 bit/192 kHz remastered from the original mastertapes.

A special 2LP edition of Moontan (remastered & expanded) released by Music On Vinyl will follow in early 2022. This 2CD edition of Moontan starts off a special series of remastered & expanded albums by Golden Earring, overseen by Red Bullet catalogue and band archivist Wouter Bessels.

Info recently added!July 11 2021 - Received info from a German Golden Earring fan about a July 16 1971 show in Germany. Info added to the Seventies tourdates file!

Show info Rüdiger Schirmer: Hello Casper, I've just crossed through your Golden Earring Tourside, which is great. Thanks for the whole stuff, it's quite interesting to me. When I looked at the tourdates, I missed my very first Earring Concert. I was deeply impressed that evening and have been a great Fan of the Band since then. The Concert took place on July 16 1971 at a location called "Schützenhalle" in the town of Meschede, Germany. I crossed through my old Notice Books the other night and there it was . Time of entry was 7 p.m. I remember the Support Band, whose name I forgot, was so bad, they began throwing bottles and things on stage. But Earring played a Concert that night, I remembered all my life. I’ve seen the Band round a dozend times since then, but this was the night I remember most. Wish you a wonderful summer, stay healthy, Rüdiger Schirmer

SUPERSISTER PROJEKT 2021 Na de verrassende start in 2019 met de documentaire De Tovenaar van de Nederpop, de LP Retsis Repus en de geweldige live optredens heeft het Supersister Projekt het afgelopen jaar wijselijk overgeslagen. In oktober 2021 slaat het echter weer flink toe met een hele fijne clubtour. Nu, eind 2020 komt wel de dubbeldikke (950+ pagina’s) Supersister biografie Looking Back, Naked uit, inclusief de bijbehorende, gelijknamige CD. Dit zal zeker aanleiding zijn om deze keer live ook, naast natuurlijk het bekende LP werk, wat – erg leuk – Sweet Okay Supersister oer-materiaal te laten horen... Robert Jan Stips staat er gewoon weer borg voor dat de SP21-live-band een heel "Wow" menu serveert, van ‘She Was Naked’ via ‘Retsis Repus’ tot en met mogelijk nóg nieuwer materiaal… Kortom, een avond SuperSmullen !

George Kooymans (73) en Barry Hay (72) zijn vandaag in de prijzen gevallen bij de online-uitreiking van de Buma Awards Music in Media. Zij werden bekroond met een award in de categorie Beste Sync voor het gebruik van het lied Radar Love in de Amerikaanse miniserie Mrs America, over vrouwenemancipatie in de VS.

Ook viel het lied Smoorverliefd van rapper Snelle in de prijzen. Het nummer van Snelle en componisten Okke Punt en Daan Ligtvoet kreeg veel aandacht omdat het werd gebruikt in een spotje dat waarschuwde voor appen tijdens het fietsen. De song werd bekroond als beste Originele Compositie in een Reclame van 2020.

Andere onderscheidingen gingen onder anderen naar componist Christiaan Verbeek, voor de muziek die hij maakte voor de met een Gouden Kalf bekroonde film Bulado, en Rutger Reinders, voor zijn muziek voor de NPO-serie IM. De winnaars van de Buma Awards Music in Media zijn dit jaar online bekendgemaakt. Normaal gesproken worden de prijzen uitgereikt tijdens Buma Music in Motion in de Tolhuistuin in Amsterdam, maar dat kon dit jaar vanwege de coronacrisis niet doorgaan.

Info recently added!March 11, 2021 - Today Golden Earring fans all over the world put on their favourite version of the track Radar Love at exactly 5,15 PM Dutch time in honour of the 73rd birthday of Golden Earring founder and guitarist George Kooymans. Kooymans was recently diagnosed with ALS disease and no longer able to perform. This meant Golden Earring called it's quits and so fans decided it was time to honour him. The event was organised by two fans Winy and Yvonne van der Geest, two daughters of Fan Jan van der Geest and owner of the Don Bosco venue (later on Café de Meester). At the Don Bosco venue many Golden Earring rehearsels were done in the Seventies and early Eighties and also Golden Earring the 1981 fanclubday was held over there. Later on Golden Earring performed several times in Zoeterwoude at the Loethepark and at a sports location.

Also in The Netherlands on many carillions (church bells) the adapted Radar Love version was performed. This started out by asking if the song could be performed on one carillion and fans took over this request and spreaded in to many other cities. The sheet music was sent to all beiaardiers (Churchbell operators") all over the Netherlands. On the internet some YouTube videos from this event made in various cities can be found.

Info recently added!February 06, 2021 - Following the sad news yesterday morning in a Telegraaf newspaper article which mentioned Golden Earring guitarist George Kooymans is suffering from ALS disease and will be no longer able to perform, the other three Golden Earring bandmembers announced this would mean Golden Earring will stop performing as a band. They call their quits as Golden Earring without George Kooymans is no longer Golden Earring. Fans are in shock when they realised Golden Earring won't be seen live in concert anymore! In retrospect that means Golden Earring performed it's last concert at the Rotterdam Ahoy in November 2019! Due to the 2020 Covid19 Corona crisis Golden Earring didn't perform in 2020 a single show from their planned concerts. Neither a Farewell tour or concert can be performed anymore. On my behalf I wish George Kooymans, his family, bandmembers and friends all the best in these harsh times...

Info recently added!February 05, 2021 - Sad news this morning Telegraaf newspaper article: Golden Earring-gitarist George Kooymans ernstig ziek en stopt met optreden mentioned Golden Earring guitarist George Kooymans is suffering from ALS disease and will be no longer able to perform neither with Vreemde Kostgangers solo or with Golden Earring. All planned shows are being cancelled now.

Sad news this morning Telegraaf newspaper article: Golden Earring-gitarist George Kooymans ernstig ziek en stopt met optreden.

DEN HAAG - Golden Earring-gitarist George Kooymans (72) is ernstig ziek en stopt met optreden. Dit vertelt manager Rob Gerritsen in De Telegraaf. Wat er precies met de gitarist aan de hand is, wil Gerritsen niet kwijt. 'Ik kan alleen vertellen dat het ernstig is en George niet meer verder kan.' Over de toekomst van de Haagse band hebben de overige bandleden nog geen besluit genomen. Kooymans richtte in 1961 samen met zijn buurjongen Rinus Gerritsen de band The Tornados op. De jongens, dertien en vijftien jaar oud, kwamen er al snel achter dat er al een band bestond met die naam, en kozen een nieuwe: The Golden Earrings. In de jaren erna versterkten Barry Hay en Cesar Zuiderwijk de rockband, die succes kreeg in binnen- en buitenland. Kooymans vormt samen met Boudewijn de Groot en Henny Vrienten ook het trio Vreemde Kostgangers.

Gerritsen wil nog geen uitspraken doen over de toekomst van Golden Earring, zoals de naam uiteindelijk werd. 'George is te ziek om nog te spelen en dat zou kunnen betekenen dat de band ophoudt te bestaan. Maar daarover is nog geen definitief besluit genomen.

Diverse grote artiesten/
De band bestaat dit jaar precies zestig jaar en is hiermee samen met Bintangs de oudste nog bestaande rockband van Nederland. De eerste jaren speelden de Hagenaars voornamelijk covers, tot in 1965 hun doorbraak komt met de single Please go, die de top tien van de Nederlandse hitlijsten haalt. In de jaren zeventig breekt de band ook internationaal door met de hit Radar Love. De Golden Earring speelt in die jaren met grote artiesten, zoals The Who, Aerosmith, Kiss, Santana, ZZ Top, Pink Floyd en Eric Clapton.

Der Spiegel Germany: Nach 50 Jahren Niederländische Rockband Golden Earring wird nie wieder auftreten Weil Frontmann George Kooymans an ALS erkrankte, beendet die niederländische Rockband Golden Earring nach 50 Jahren ihre Laufbahn. Sie galt als eine der ältesten noch auftretenden Rockbands der Welt. 05.02.2021, 19.06 Uhr Nach mehr als 50 Jahren hat die niederländische Rockband Golden Earring ihr Karriereende angekündigt. Grund ist die Krankheit des Gitarristen und Bandgründers, George Kooymans. ANZEIGE Golden Globes 2021: Das sind die Nominierungen Ein Angebot von Entsprechende Medienberichte bestätigte der Manager der Band, Rob Gerritsen, der Nachrichtenagentur ANP. »Das stimmt. Es ist vorbei.« ANZEIGE Golden Earring war in den Sechzigerjahren gegründet worden und eine der ältesten noch auftretenden Rockbands. »Radar Love« bedeutete im Jahr 1973 den internationalen Durchbruch und war einer der größten Hits der Band. Am Freitag war bekannt geworden, dass der 72 Jahre alte Kooymans an der seltenen Muskel- und Nervenkrankheit ALS leidet. Das bestätigte er dem »Algemeen Dagblad«. Das letzte Konzert gab die Band 2019 in Rotterdam. hba/dpa

PERSBERICHTHet komt niet aan als een verrassing, maar het doet toch pijn. Clamotte Rock vindt dit jaar niet plaats en verschuift naar mei 2021. Hoewel we geloven dat muziek een machtig medicijn is, primeert de gezondheid van onze bezoekers, crewleden, artiesten en leveranciers. We proberen zoveel mogelijk bands mee te nemen naar ons jubileumjaar in 2021. Op 13, 14 en 15 mei 2021 viert Hooifeestencomité vzw zijn vijfentwintigste en Clamotte Rock zijn tiende verjaardag. Aangekochte tickets blijven hun waarde behouden. We proberen in de komende dagen zo veel mogelijk, als niet àlle, artiesten van 2020 over te zetten naar 2021. En wie weet volgen er nog leuke extraatjes! Bart Peeters komt al zeker op 14 mei 2021 en de volgende artiesten hebben reeds bevestigd voor 15 mei 2021: Dr Lektroluv, Warhola, Glints, Rhea, The Darkraver, Sloper, Superstyling, Hypesquad, Dj Jan, Laston & Geo, Dj Kerck. De gesprekken met Wolfmother zijn nog volop aan de gang.

Info recently added!April 13, 2020 - Today I did another update for my website. I researched some Golden Earring shows with Blue Oyster Cult way back in 1974. I already had much info but it needed an update and so I researched a fine source: BLUE OYSTER CULT Hot Rails website 1974 tour overview. I know more researchers who have their own fan websites and often we check our websites for crossreferences and find more proof a show to be confirmed. Sometimes the result is we find out shows were announced on a certain date but postponed or even cancelled.... Today I could add another ticket scan to the one I already had and a show review for the June 21 1974 show. Thank you Hot Rails tour website!

Info recently added!November 11, 2019 - Today Golden Earring was presented with a new award by Veronica broadcast cooperation!

Golden Earring is door Veronica onderscheiden met een gouden Top 1000 Allertijden Award. De Haagse band kreeg de speciale prijs uitgereikt omdat het als enige Nederlandse act een plek in alle vijftig Top 1000 Allertijden-edities wist te bemachtigen. Bandlid Cesar Zuiderwijk werd maandagochtend in het radioprogramma van Giel Beelen verrast met de award. Willem van Kooten, jarenlang bij de hitlijsten betrokken, was in de studio aanwezig om de prijs uit te reiken. Golden Earring is samen met The Rolling Stones de enige band die in alle vijftig top 1000 Allertijden-edities stond genoteerd. In de eerste editie uit 1968 stond Golden Earring met twee hits genoteerd, Sound Of The Screaming Day en I've Just Lost Somebody. Lijst uitgebreid Radio Veronica viert dit jaar de vijftigste editie van de Top 1000 Allertijden. De zender begon in 1968 met de lijst, die toen nog uit honderd nummers bestond. Tussen 1968 en 2003 werd de hitparade 32 keer uitgezonden, waarna het aantal nummers werd uitgebreid van honderd naar duizend. De Top 1000 van dit jaar is vanaf maandag tot en met 22 november tussen 09.00 uur en 19.00 uur te horen op Radio Veronica. De lijst is samengesteld op basis van stemmen van Veronica-luisteraars.

The article also mentioned the concert is done for the "afscheidstournee" ("farewell tour") Amongst fans the rumour was heard: Golden Earring will perform their last shows in 2010 (including another Ahoy show!) because Barry Hay doesn't want to go on performing concerts (nowadays he travels every month from and to his home at Curaçao) This article made the rumours stronger and stronger. The band and management denied strongly in February 2009 newspapers this will be the case. The Oud Gastel concert date wasn't officially confirmed at first on the official Golden Earring website but later on confirmed.

Well actually i'm spending time on other things and it's hard to keep up with everything. Golden Earring performs less more and at the moment there are no shows and not much to tell. I visited two Frank Carillo with Eddie Seville shows and met several Earring fans again. Today I added a Golden Earring contract for a 1975 special guest performance for Robin Trower. This contract was found by fellow researcher Ruud Mols online, I added the ticket which was already available on this website. Thanks Ruud!

Info recently added!January 16, 2019 - Former Golden Earring manager Jaap (Jacques) Senf passed away today at the age of 72!

Info www.wos.nl: Theaterimpresario Jacques Senf (72) is woensdagochtend thuis in Maasland overleden. Senf maakte in eerste instantie faam met The Golden Earrings (toen nog met een "s") waar hij op zijn 17de als loopjongen begon en snel opklom tot manager. Op voorstel van zanger-gitarist George Kooymans veranderde hij zijn voornaam van Jaap in Jacques.

In 1965 opende Senf Club 192 in Scheveningen en vier jaar later begon hij ook voor theater te produceren. De komst van zijn Maaslandse vrouw Barry in het bedrijf in 1980, zorgde voor een verdere groei van het bedrijf. Senf Theaterpartners geldt nu als het grootste Nederlandse impresariaat, dat meer dan vijftig producenten, gezelschappen en artiesten vertegenwoordigt.

In 1991 werd in Maasland de Nationale Theaterkassa opgericht, een landelijk bespreekbureau voor het bestellen van kaarten voor concerten, theater, shows en (sport)evenementen. Senf was betrokken bij de opkomst van de grote musicalproducties en de grote populariteit van de musical in Nederland. Ook in Vlaanderen was hij actief en hiervoor werd hij door Koning Boudewijn op 16 april 1992 geridderd tot Ridder in de Kroonorde.

Senf was tevens actief in het sociale leven in zijn woonplaats Maasland. Vanwege zijn inspanningen ontving hij op 7 november 2016 de hoogste onderscheiding van de gemeente Midden-Delfland, de Otto van Egmondpenning. Hij ging die dag, ter gelegenheid van zijn zeventigste verjaardag, met circa 600 Maaslandse basisscholieren naar het Museon in Den Haag. Als kind bezocht Senf het museum zelf vaak. De begrafenis zal in besloten kring plaatsvinden.

The site itself mentions the following text: Pic taken @ "The American Hotel" in NYC on June 6th, 1975. Golden Earring (Radar Love) was staying in this hotel, and appeared @ The Academy of Music on May 31st. Lynyrd Skynyrd was staying in the same hotel @ the same time preparing for their upcoming concert. After interviewing Barry Hay on May 31st, RVZ, and the other members of Skynyrd on the afternoon of their concert. When walking out of their Hotel, Ronnie saw Barry in the lobby. Barry is over 6Feet tall, and Ronnie was 5feet 7 inches tall.

Info recently added!November 14, 2018 - Named after Golden Earring's Long Blond Animal track there is now beer on the market

Long Blond Animal kennen we als de grote hit van de Golden Earring. Maar wat nou als je zanger Barry Hay en bierbrouwer Kees Bubberman samen aan tafel zet. Het eerste idee was een duet. Maar de zangkwaliteiten van Kees lieten nogal te wensen over. Dus werd er een bier gebrouwen. En wat voor één; een Long Blond Animal! De Long Blond Animal is een blond bier gebrouwen met Belgische gist en koriander. Daarmee was het verhaal niet klaar, want Brouwerij Kees! geeft altijd zijn eigen draai aan zijn bieren. Dit bier kreeg een fijne hoppige afdronk mee.

Long Blond Animal kennen we ook als It's a Blond van de Middelburgse brouwer. Long Blond Animal is vooral speciaal vanwege de naam en vanwege de verpakking. Het bier is afgevuld in blik met een opvallend ontwerp. In totaal verschijnen er acht verschillende kleuren blikjes. Leuk voor de verzamelaars. Long Blond Animal heeft 6% alcohol en is lichtzoet, fris en heeft, zoals gezegd een hoppige afdronk. Het bier is onder meer verkrijgbaar bij Van Bieren. Info thanks to www.bierista.nl!

This is a Fan site and has no direct connection with the band Golden Earring.

It's intention is to act like a library that covers and references the history of the band for fan enjoyment.
