Title: Live at Rockpalast Artist: Sniff 'n' the Tears Label: Repertoire Records Product Type: COMPACT DISCS UPC: 4009910126226 Genre: Electronic Release Date: 2015-03-17 Number of Discs: 2 Additional Details: GERMANY - IMPORT, NTSC FORMAT
2015 two disc (CD + NTSC/Region 0 DVD) release. Their 1979 single 'Driver's Seat' just missed the UK Top 40, but was a big hit in many other countries, including #15 in the USA. Their musicianship was at odds with the UK music scene, dominated at the time by disco and new wave. However, their albums, Fickle Heart, The Game's Up and Love / Action (all with Paul Roberts own designed covers) were well respected. During the period of this Rockpalast show, the band was promoting Ride Blue Divide (1982) their last album as a band in the 80s. Reminiscing about the Rockpalast appearance (with Dexy's Midnight Runners) Paul Roberts says: "Some thirty odd years later, I have finally seen the show and it's not bad at all... we coped with the problems pretty well. I was a little sweaty, but on the whole, the music is pretty good!" The 20-page informative booklet, with liner notes by Record Collector's Micheal Heatley, includes the full interview with singer Paul Roberts.
