Heart - BBC Rock Hour, Paris Theatre, London, Britain, 5-11-1978

Oftentimes, US musical acts weren't in Britain enough to do multiple BBC studio sessions, but they'd have a London concert recorded by BBC radio. In 1978, Heart got that treatment.

For Heart, 1978 was a particular good year for a concert bootleg. If you like their rocking 1970s style, this is all killer, no filler. Pretty much all of their big 1970s songs are included here, plus a cover of Led Zeppelin's "Rock and Roll." There's no talking between songs. It's all rocking. For instance, how can you beat the classic "Magic Man" followed by the classic "Barracuda" followed by the classic "Crazy on You?"

As you'd expected from a BBC recording, the sound quality is excellent. I didn't have to do any tinkering.

The concert is rather short at only 44 minutes. But, like I said, it's all killer and no filler.

I couldn't find any really good photo of the sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson on stage from 1978. But I found a nice one of the two of them off stage from that year, so I used that one.

  1. Looking forward to this. I remember seeing them back wehn in little local clubs seating maybe 30 people but they still put on a killer show.
