Lost Angeles | Colosseum Live | Rockpalast 1994

Lost Angeles | Colosseum Live | Rockpalast 1994
1968 gründet Jon Hiseman (Schlagzeug) die Band Colosseum. Mit an Bord sind seine Weggefährten Dick Heckstall-Smith (Saxophon) und Tony Reeves (Bass), mit denen er zuvor schon bei John Mayall und Graham Bond gespielt hat. Dave Greenslade (Orgel) und der junge James Litherland (Gitarre und Gesang) runden das erste Line Up ab.
Schon auf ihrem ersten Album „Those Who Are About To Die“ kreieren die Fünf den typischen Colosseum-Sound - einen Mix aus Rock, Blues und Jazz. Mit ihrem zweiten Longplayer „Valentyne Suite“ legen Colosseum auch gleich ihr Meisterwerk vor. Es ist das erste Album auf dem neuem Vertigo Label, das neue und progresssive Rockmusik vorstellen will. Die Band tourt durch Europa und die USA.
James Litherland wird im Verlauf von David „Clem“ Clempson an der Gitarre ersetzt und Tony Reeves durch Mark Clarke am Bass. Und mit der Verpflichtung von Sänger Chris Farlowe hat man eine der markantesten Stimmen der englischen Rock und Bluesszene gewonnen. Damit steht das Line Up, das für Fans und Kritiker gleichermaßen als das bedeutendste angesehen wird. Mit der Arbeit am dritten Studio Album „Daughter of Time“ beginnt die Krise, die am Ende auch zur Auflösung von Colosseum führt. Einige sehen in Dick Heckstall-Smiths Solo-LP „A Story Ended“ von 1972 den Epilog der Colosseum-Geschichte. Zuvor erscheint aber mit „Colosseum Live“ das wohl bekannteste Album der Band, das nicht nur mit "Lost Angeles" die große Live-Qualität der Gruppe festhält.
#Colosseum wurden am 28.10.1994 im Kölner #Ewerk vom WDR #Rockpalast aufgezeichnet.

Colosseum live, one of the best live-albums ever!!

[@TheLeadSled]

Clem Clempson and Chris Farlowe were absolute beasts, plus Jon Hiseman, Dick Hextall Smith, Dave Greenslade, all masters that shall never be forgotten.

[@joerschjb]

Dont forget Mark Clarke.

[@wolfganghornung3493]

nobody will ever forget this band surely, thanks to Colosseum

[@shamteal8614]

Chris Farlowe still is with an amazing following.

[@pinofara5646]

Live LP very good here not same Remember other Guitar more hot

[@53lemac]

Indeed.❤❤❤

[@harmgendarm8831]

One of the best Bands ever, wonderful

[@charalampostseronis6500]

My god what a band... all members are master musicians

[@nightbird888006]

One of the greatest- worldwide.

[@razigryn2255]

I've been hearing "Lost Angeles" ever since I was about 14, and it never ceases to amaze me. One of the most brilliant pieces of music ever written and performed !!

[@GianiGighen]

Absolutely true.

[@dietmarrosenboom7523]

Ich war 17 Jahre jung als ich das Lied das erste Mal hörte. Ich bin heute 67 Jahre und bin immer wieder begeistert von dem großartigen Lied ❤

[@DavisSchulz]

For me one of the best concerts of all time... love it for such a long time. Still magical, legends.

[@jogischulz2576]

...yes I agree, love it over 50 years now, greetings from Germany

[@aleksanderjeladze4913]

Agree!

[@ping261054]

Colosseum was my very first concert I was able to attend.... 1971! Still one of the greatest live albums ever!

[@climaxbluesbandnow]

Gives me goosebumps every time I hear this song. One of my favourite bands and songs ever! Saw them live in 1969 at the Hollywood Festival. Phenomenal Chris Farlowe, Jon Hiseman, Clem Clempson, Mark Clark, Dick Heckstall-Smith and Dave Greenslade!

[@Volker_GR]

For me, this was the start of the era of Lost Angeles 3.0. They played it before Chris Farlowe joined the band, back then without the middle section ("here am I, alone in this city"). The live version from 1971 was L.A. 2.0. With the reunion in 1994, the song became slower, but no less exiting. And that's how they're still playing it in 2023, unbelievable. Truly the band of my life, with all its line-ups and members, that's why I also mention Barbara Thompson on sax and flute, Tony Reeves on the bass and James 'Butty' Litherland (g, voc).

[@pejimco9497]

What a guitar solo .... incredible. And the duet guitar - voice amazing

[@frankdomel26]

Such great music, i love it, more than 45 years. Collusseum Live, a great album. And the voice of Chris Farlowe is incredible, i love it also at Atomic Rooster.

[@oleandreasjensen5263]

I am a huge fan, and have always been since I bought their livealbum back in the heydays.. One of the best band and musicians of all time. Awesome

The truth that I bring and the words that I sing are all meant for you Trees, they are full, the minds, they are bare and this time I care Everyone has a car but they won't travel far Well nobody here has the sunshine that I still have Sad sad town, sad sad town in the buzzing desert Shanty town, shanty town, shanty town of the millionaire A man will awaken one morning, alone on the tall brown grass A millionaire alone in the burning desert Sad sad town, sad sad town in the buzzing desert Shanty town, shanty town, shanty town of the millionaire A man will awaken one morning, alone on the tall brown grass There's a millionaire alone in the burning desert Here am I alone in this city Ain't that a pity I just want to leave And get away from Lost Angeles Earthquakes and smog Are driving me out of town I don't want to be here I don't want to be around Take me away if you please I do not want to live in Lost Angeles I don't want to live here Just want to get back home I don't want to be here any more I want to be on my own Take me away if you please Get me away from Lost Angeles

[@user-jp9js9th8o]

great piece of fusion-rock: heavy plus jazz... and the development over the long intro: like "Bolero" .. followed up by diverse variations and combinations with so many "ritardani" (receptions..) still a master masterpiece. and one the only music pieces where I like the American grooming in the lead singers voice;-)

[@terryengland1880]

In my youth, you had two choices in music what was in the charts or bands like these. But boy we were spoilt for choices

[@valdypiero]

Although this is good, you should check out the 1971 Live version from Manchester University with Clem Clempson on guitar. The 1971 version eats this one for breakfast!

[@4ctmam]

Well, Clem is on this 1994 version too, though.
