Hell In The Barn: Live Vinyl

Album recorded live at 'Druckluft' in Oberhausen, Germany, in early 2020 to celebrate the band's 25th stage anniversary. Lou Cifer & The Hellions have a huge international fan base of Teds, Rockers and Rockabilly fans! The band's first official live release, exclusively on Bear Family. On that particular night the band played their own songs - no cover versions! Super combo of high-quality audiophile LP pressing and a bonus CD with 12(!) more recordings from the gig! Additionally, there is a 16-page large format booklet with many photos from the night of the concert. 25 years of Lou Cifer & The Hellions - from all over Europe and England fans and friends came to Oberhausen, Germany, to celebrate the event. When the band played the live show on the occasion of their anniversary, none of the Teds, Rockers and Rockabillies knew that this would be one of the last concerts of the Rock & Roll scene before a nasty plague hit with all it's force. After that nothing went on for a long time. For many this evening remains unforgettable. It's just wonderful that this fabulous live performance is now available on LP and CD. Some claim that Lou Cifer and the Hellions are actually a live band, or that the songs at least develop a very unique dynamic when played lin front of an enthusiastic audience. Time and again, private live footage of the band's performances is in circulation. This is usually done with good intentions, but often the recordings reveal a questionable quality. The present live tracks were professionally processed, carefully mixed and mastered afterwards. Hence, we can now release these tracks in exceptionally good quality as an audiophile vinyl and CD combo package. The boys' joy of playing was well captured. But a show lives not at last from the audience, and that comes across very well on these platters, too. The particular club atmosphere in the 'Druckluft' venue is also evidenced by the ambient photos in the booklet.
