This one was requested long time ago, a rarity much sought after by collectors: US hard rockers ROXY BLUE “Westwood One In Concert” other name Rock-A-Bye Hollywood – Live at The Troubadour. This show was a 1992 broadcast and as happened with many bands from the era, Westwood One pressed some limited copies on CD / no cover art.
his recording is of special interest because ROXY BLUE was a real beast live, and there isn’t tapes / bootlegs from the band at their peak when they where touring presenting debut album ‘Want Some?’.
Soon after, grunge took the US scene and bands like ROXY BLUE didn’t found venues to play regularly. Ironically, this Westwood One pressing – they did a few CD copies for archival purposes – is a double disc with the other being a Nirvana concert…
Sound quality is very good, and shows ROXY BLUE rocking hard, a band that unfortunately arrived too late into the scene. A collectors item.
