For the first time on CD - Rock Circus with the guests Eric Burdon, Gary Glitter and Neil Landon!

At the end of the Seventies the music club 'Chikago' belonged to the hottest live clubs of the German rock city Hamburg. The former striptease temple has become the mecca of rock n 'roll since a band called Rock Circus appeared there. Behind the band name hid a team that had earned their spurs since the Beat-era in the 60s. With Rock Circus on stage, the store was packed. No wonder, if you read the illustrious cast list: Herbert Hildebrandt, Rock Circus boss and co-founder of the German legend Rattles sang and played the bass. Niels Tabi, formerly with the German Bonds, sat behind the drums. Pianist Bernd Schulz, on loan from Rudolf Rock and the Schocker, also had Rattles past behind him. Guitarist Hannes Bauer came from Bock Rock (and has been a regular guitar player for Udo Lindenberg since a long time). Eckart Hofmann (saxophone, flute), also at home with Rudolf Rock, had recently helped to cheer the Dirty Dogs. And Sigi Bensinger played his saxophone in the 60's with Mike Roger And His Machine Guns and the King Boys, before he came to Rock Circus after a long break.
So what could have been more appropriate than to banish this unique rocky atmosphere on record - live, of course, and then on a double album, because the band wanted to share this event with numerous friends. Thus, in a long night from the 7th to the 8th of March 1979, the following illustrious rock greats stood beside Rock Circus on the tiny stage of the 'Chikago': Eric Burdon, Gary Glitter, Neil Landon, Lee Patterson, Lord Ulli (from The Lords), Dicky Tarrach (from The Rattles), Fats (from Fats & His Cats), Jutta Weinhold, Ingeburg Thomsen, Carlo Blumenberg (from the Dirty Dogs), Peter Kirchberger (from Rudolf Rock & The Shocker) & Ulli Salm alias Rudolf Rock.
Hamburg's hottest night in a long time had come to an end, 22 tracks were recorded at the concert, which now appear for the first time on a double CD at Sireena Records.
