Entries in Wolfgang's Vault (1)

Wolfgang's amazing live-music vault

Wolfgang’s Vault is an unbelievable treasure trove of free live concerts, both old and new. 

Fresh to my ears is a 1979 Rockpile concert from the Palladium in New York, one of five different Wolfgang's streams featuring either Rockpile or band member Dave Edmunds.

While Rockpile was known as a screaming live band (labelmates Led Zeppelin booted them as opening act from a tour because their opening shows were stealing Zepp’s thunder), there’s a few surprising vocal clunkers in this show. Still, their music drives like nobody's business, evidence of how great they were live.
