Renaissance Records is releasing “Alive In America“, a live recording from incredible classic rockers BLACKFOOT taped 1979.

Blackfoot album ‘Strikes’, produced by Al Nalli and engineered by Brownsville Station drummer Henry Weck, was recorded in Nalli’s basement studio in Ann Arbor, Michigan and was completed by January 1979. It was destined to be the band’s most commercially successful effort. The song “Train, Train”, written by Rickey’s grandfather, “Shorty” Medlocke, became their first success and best known song. “Highway Song” proved to be another success for them later that year.
The group toured frequently during 1979; late during the year they opened for the band The Who at the Silverdome in Pontiac, Michigan, while developing their next album, ‘Tomcattin’, which was released during 1980.
The recording included on “Alive In America” was made July 2, 1979 in Denver Colorado at the Rainbow Music Hall during the band’s ‘Strikes’ tour.

The tape circulated for years among collectors, and now Renaissance is releasing it ‘remastered’. Well, this is an unofficial recording and the sound quality isn’t the best, but we are featuring it at 0dayrox for its historical reference. In 1979 Blackfoot was at their best, an oiled rockn’ roll machine in between their best studio albums.
