Golden Earring LIVE on Rockpalast 1982

[@genegould6383]

Anyone who did not take the opportunity to grow up with this band lost out on a whole wonderful world of music that no one else was doing... ie though, that first song is not Candy's going home. It is Candy's going bad!!!!! We all would like to thank Golden earring for all of their efforts for the many, many, many years of musical joy that they brought into our lives. God bless them and God bless. George.. could not imagine growing up in my life in this world not being one of their biggest fans... I GET IT!

[@MikeEroh]

Go😂😅thank you for the great music

[@marythecoolcat]

How this band isn’t in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is one of the greatest mysteries in my 60-plus years. Dear God they were Rock Gods.

[@aaa111912]

are rock gods

[@brad3129]

mary10000 I think it because the states forgot about them. They didn’t try to reproduce radar love or twilight zone. They played all over the spectrum and radio stations don’t like that. I actually think they were ahead of their time. They need more exposure. Their musicianship is off the charts.

[@malcolmbliss777]

Saw em in 1977. They were amazing.

[@TheNexustrine]

So saddened by the horrible news about guitarist George Kooijmans. The Golden Earring is/ was one of the best rock bands in the world, without overstating this. I wish all the strength for George, his family, friends and his Golden Earring colleagues.... Prayers going up for you, George....🙏

[@jjtobares4811]

Kooymans a hell of a guitar player!!!., the whole band are masters of their craft,, such an underrated outfit .!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@rantinronrevue]

No one does it like the Earring. I've been a fan since ;Moontan', and the internet has helped me to see and hear a lot of stuff that I'd missed along the way. This '82 video is a great example. As for George's guitar work, I think he's definitely one of the most underrated axemen in rock, probably because of the relative obscurity in the U.S. of the band. Cesar is also an amazing drummer. Who am I kidding? The whole band rocks!!!!!

[@scottsargent3614]

wow Ron, you said everything I was thinking. Shit, we are the person if you thing GoldenEarring is the best performing recording group ever, and won't take no for an answer about it, you can prove it...Thank you

[@peterschmidt5847]

Watt iss loos?

[@darrelllangston3751]

When I was in Germany in 1974 in The US Army we used to Jam out to the Moontan Album and get high as a kite, especially The Vanilla Queen, love this band, and now 2023 still jamming out to them, one of the Greatest Bands ever

[@darrelllangston3751]

Maybe it was 76, been a long time

[@davehaller6477]

Cesar Zuiderwijk is just an incredible drummer

[@thomasborger6548]

His enthusiam for the job is obvious.

[@joshuajohnson2216]

Yup he is👍

[@travelpointone991]

His real first name is Cor. George Kooymans was born as Sjors.

[@thomasborger6548]

I'm 30 years older than these kids were when they played this concert and I am enjoying TF outa watching this. Condolences to George and his loved ones.

[@redrheino]

Why condolences? Ok he has got ALS and that's horrible. But ehhhh........he ain't dead yet.

[@josbuysman5342]

@@redrheino thats right, he still is alive!

[@travelpointone991]

In America, the opening act for Golden Earring was ... Kiss. In my native Netherlands I've attended many local concerts. Even was allowed in the dressing room.

[@terrydrake8744]

I worked at Mca records in mid 70s to early 80s and got to know how great this band really was.Saw them on New Years eve 1977 open up for Ted Nugent in Atlanta.They rocked the house and blew Nugent away!🎸🧨🎉

[@JManJack209]

saw that same tour in Philly

[@RobinSchoutenRS]

Their management never quite understood why they refused to live in America after the succes of Radar Love. They were popular there. But after three months of touring they returned back home to The Hague.

[@eduardspanjer]

Well, now, nugent is not much anyway, it never was. But, GE have blown away a lot of good bands. They are the Dutch top band. With Boeyen's Vitesse and Brood they were the top 3 big, bigger, biggest bands in the world of Holland. Too bad non of them had a breakthrough in the USA. GE had a great hit with Radar Love, and that's was it. The Cats had two records in the US and also didn't got the change to break through big time ! And with Doe Maar lukte 't ook niet maar, ook niet geprobeerd zover ik weet. Al met al hadden we steen goeie bands met steen goeie muziekanten en lyrics. Ik ben trots op hen. En wat we nu hebben is,... tja,... hoempa muziek ? Niet goed maar ook niet slecht 😮 er tussen in.

[@ivanmay7890]

I really am glad that video footage of great bands like Golden Earring exist.

[@martienvanderhof6696]

Saddened by the news of the Earring calling it a day today. Sorry to learn that George is diagnosed with the same condition that took my mother in law four years ago. Watching this video is a good way of remebering this band, this is how they were when I started going to rockshows. Used to work out in the same gym as Barry later on.

[@nisgotthardsen581]

ALS

[@Still1Going2Strong]

From 43.03 till 45.23 one of the best live solo's ever is presented. Two minutes of heaven. So extensive, so fast, so great, so real and so right! Earring for ever!

[@kudakoda]

Absolutely no question!!!

[@henktittel3588]

Its a good solo, but one of the best? To much credit imho.

[@No_one_in_particularr]

@@henktittel3588 Considering how flawless it is played despite its complexity, and considering this is, in fact, live, I am inclined to agree with the original comment. I can't think of many better ones I've heard or seen live. But everyone has a right to his opinion. If you stumble upon lives solos you deem better than this one here, please post it. I'm sure we'll all be grateful, even if it means you proved us wrong. :-)

[@InAGaddaDaVida7]

It's simply an Musical Orgasm.

[@whatcher8151]

HE MUST USE TITANIUM STRINGS AND PICK.

[@markbecto651]

One of the most underrated bands in history. The Live Version of Vanilla Queen is pure heaven. And George i wish you all the best....

[@DT-dz1jc]

Criminally underrated. I only got to see them once - they were the opening act. At the time we only knew a handful of songs. Great that this long set was posted.

[@ruditrick6893]

Dieser Bass!! Ein Ohrenschmauss!! Supper geile Live Band! Dem Alter entsprechend aufgehört! Danke Golden Earing! DAS es euch gab!??

[@stevefroese4616]

I saw them open for Rush in 1983. Blew me away! Even before I knew about Radar Love and Twilight Zone. Who are these guys ? I thought they sounded like The Who and early Stones. They had a little splash of London punk. Incredible!!! The drum solo floored me! A band that doesn't come up often in conversations but when they are mentioned they are very well respected!! I love this band!!!

[@markschattefor6997]

Rockpalast, the best live music show ever been on the air. Thank you WDR.

[@ericmoller1890]

Golden Earring makes me so very, very happy!

[@davidzitzman6511]

Incredible Rimus bassline!

[@davidoran123]

Time for the world to rediscover Golden Earring!

[@drumheadthe1st]

Hell Ya

[@the9-2-5outlawdoestech9]

Doran Jensen Agreed

[@1972myc]

I just rediscovered them!

[@lindadote]

Doran Jensen .......I’ve never forgotten them.

[@popogejo8311]

Didn't know we'd ever lost em

[@PeerMenkens]

the first song i heard was " one huge road" in 1970. I was 13. Still a big fan.

[@scottsargent3614]

Shout out to Ron, I agree to the point I'll almost repeat it...since 73 U.S. Moontan and seeing them on t.v.'s In Concert playing Candy's Goin' Bad and Are You Receiving Me, I saw they were the greatest...this show I saw in medical school in Columbus, Ohio at the small Agora, the best concert I've ever seen. George is one of the 10 best guitar players EVER! HE IS GREAT. THESE SONGS ARE FANTASTIC

[@1kevinkat]

Rinus is such an underrated bass player.🎸

[@brianthompson2870]

grew up with radar love on the radio.... then twilight zone on the radio in 1982 .. saw them open for 38 special in '83... it wasn't even a contest , ... i almost left because there was no way the 'necks could top that ...... girlfriend was there to see the wild eyed southern boys and being 19 , i wasn't about to miss out on the fun i was gonna get when i got home !!! george is probably the most under rated guitar soloist in history !!! love to see them one more time

[@redrheino]

I hope you did see them one more time before 2020 when Corona kicked in. And earlier this year the news came out that George has been diagnosed with ALS and therefore the band called it a day. Such a shame they had to quit like this.

[@geddhead1971]

really pisses me off how groups like this have been utterly forgotten about :-( incredible version of vanilla queen at the 35 minute mark !!

[@newmansteven13]

The most under-rated rock band in history. Period.

[@harmvandeseijp8607]

[@guuspalmero]

They are a still recognized by a lot of Dutch people, also young ones.

relax in your majesty of the past, having seen it yourself. Like seeing a ruined castle and you saw it when it was new and grand.

[@MrNielsPunk]

Rinus bass playing is awesome

[@deathmetaldouglas69]

He is a fucking beast. Has chops to spare but also knows how to keep it simple and drive the band with ridiculously powerful repetitive groove.

[@GrayJack9]

Really a shame that these guys have had to call it a day. Thanks to them all, they gave a lot of people a real buzz.

[@ReoFies14841]

En los ochenta, aquí en España eran un grupo de culto por un puñado de personas por todo el país. Nos decían que éramos unos " locos inadaptados" la mayoría aquí y ahora locos inadaptados tenemos carreras universitarias y nos ganamos bien la vida. Mientras los que nos criticaban por nuestras formas de vestir, música y fiestas mariajuneras y alucinógenas, están gordos, calvos, llenos de hijos mal educados y no llegan a final de mes. Conclusión? no critiquemos a las demás personas por su apariencia y sus gustos en general los años ponen a todos en su lugar y la buena música nos entierra a todos y seguirá viva por siempre como los Earring.

I found this by accident. All I knew by them was Radar Love and Twilight Zone. Holy shit, this is epic.

[@waubrowns1]

That's the sad part. Most people only know Radar Love

[@1972myc]

They were at least not pop. Hidden treasure we can appreciate.

[@ten10strips85]

Welcome aboard!

I love it when someone discovers this band. Check out some more recent performances for great stuff not yet written at the time of this concert.

[@stinger139]

I crank up the volume and play this song to my four month old daughter every night to help her sleep in her crib.

[@gilwaite]

I saw them back in the 70's. A friend of mine and I showed up at the Dallas Convention Center. It was a triple bill Golden Earring, Poco and Procul Harem. The place was almost empty! Golden Earring stole the show.

[@DennisRatering]

Saw them in 2019.... last week they had to announce that after 60 years the band quits.

[@saulstar5203]

82 was a great year Thinking of George today ...

[@nickbrouwer9643]

Wow! The way Rinus plays. His sound is unique! But this whole video the band is at it’s best. So much energy!

[@DavidPerry-do6xt]

Relevant now .Earning lives bless George and Margo !!

[@dirkfeische2945]

One of my favorite bands of all times! And I know a lot. To reduce them to "Radar Love" is strictly unfair! No other band can bring the Rock' n Roll to you with this kind of "dramatic melancholy" I love it and always will 👍

[@mariskacandice890]

The fact that they are not legends in the U.S. is criminal!

[@mineheadX1]

one of the best live bands in rock...amazing.

[@betofogo17]

Rockpalast is always a guarantee of good shows!

[@dikbozo]

Kick 'em out brothers and sisters! The jams done got kicked and kicked hard this night. Smokin' hot and dripping enough to prove it. 96 minutes of good stuff. WOW!

[@maxinemckenzie5765]

I've Loved the Earring since I heard the Live version of "....Strange Wings" on the Rock History L.P back in '82. Finally got to see them play in London in 2007... and they Rocked!I caught Cesar's Drumstick after Radar Love Drum Solo. Rinus did his crazy Bass Solo too. 40 or so Dutch fans invited back stage, plus me and maybe only one other British Fan. They really appreciated the feedback from us and were all very friendly Guys. (The warm~up Gig in Ipswitch the previous night has been Posted on KZbin a while back). Still think George is the most Handsome Man in Rock n Roll.

[@paulvandriel2344]

#1 band. I've never met anyone who didn't got hooked to them.

[@43lochness]

saw them in 1974, the drummer blew up his drum kit.....keith moon would have been proud, awesome gig.....with lynyrd skynyrd too no less !

[@koenfje]

that move on 1:14:20 is one of the coolest things ive seen in my life

[@themongrelkingtoo388]

They are legends for a damn good reason. They've earned their place in Valhalla.

[@dasboot0158]

That was a cool drum entrance on the kit, right behind the beat

[@rayerscarpensael2300]

Not as spectacular as the Rolling Stones or VanHalen but so much more intense musically. One of the greatest rockbands ever.

[@paw45]

March 6, 1983 saw Golden Earring with Rush, Signals tour. I had one joint, two mandrax and beer. I was bummed due to not having enough pot. But the show was wonderful. Rush is an incredibly tight band. Golden Earring was a good match up with Rush.

[@oldrockr1557]

Twilight Zone introduced as Bullet Hits the Bone in this concert.. Bullet Hits the Bone was the original name of the song..Record company suggested they change the name because of connotation of being shot!!!

[@gootchie]

Some of the finest musicianship of our time, and I dare anyone to remember their names...

[@natebaack1667]

I grew up listening to the album Moontan while my mom played this epic record. In the past five years I have researched Golden Earring a lot. Incredibly talented and underappreciated in America, they are the longest lived rock band starting in 1962, still touring and very popular in Scandinavian countries and The Netherlands where they are from. This Rockpalast show is my favorite live performance of theirs', playing most of their best songs and in their prime. George Koomans is an amazing guitarist and song writer who learned a lot from Jimmy Page while touring with Led Zeppelin in the early 70s.

[@janmuilwijk9671]

"This is a new one called 'When The Bullet Hits The Bone'" - yeah, must have been VERY new when they did this show. :-D

[@scotlandlover]

especially as it was brought out as TWILIGHT ZONE later on, lol

[@haythijs]

MrMatthiasSchneider The Song was released some weeks after this concert had been recorded. So the 'worktitle' was probably "when the bullet hits the bone. The song originally was written by George Kooymans for his solo album. The Earring wanted to quit in those days and George already made plans for his solo album. They decided to make one last album ( Cut) and George used this song for te recording sessions. Then it became a huge hit, and they played on and on and on ...... ;)

[@ahnonever]

Dynamic, unsurpassed hard hitting mind captivating listening, and they inspire immense creativity. HOT looking guys, (GOOD GOD) Just amazing, they might be my most fav in the world ,a bold statement, in this big rocking dirtball, carved in stone AND SHAKING FOREVER, by the Earring. I ALWAYS WONDERED WHAT MADE IT TURN JUST RIGHT, DAY TO NIGHT, RIGHT ON TIME LOL. Had they HAD LONGER HAIR, all the girls would have just died right there, that night.
