You better have enjoyed!!!!! :D It's extremely rare, this one.
Leave a like to show your appreciation! - เพลง
Impossible to overstate how insanely great this is...nothing like it exists anymore!
THAT being said, I'm SO PROUD that I was a part of the '80s! Yes, THE '80s, in my opinion, "THE PINNACLE OF CIVILIZATION!"
The power and intonation or spot on! What an amazing band. I will be listening to ols school Queensryche, when I'm 80, living in a nursing home. lol
I saw the first show they ever played . It was at the Portland Paramount Theater. They hadn't even played a club gig in Seattle or anything. They opened for Zebra at a KGON Catch A Rising Star concert for $2.92 and they killed it. Your recording was probably only a few days later as they went down the west coast. Nice recording - thanks for the memories!!!
Thanks!
I was there too bro! I got in for $1.00, it was $.92 not two ninety two. I remember thinking, who are these hairsprayed gothic assclowns. It was epic as shit but we walked out. Zebra kicked ass.
Now this is Queensryche!!!!!!!!!
AMEN or LIKEWISE!
I was at this show and I was 15 years old. I was standing center stage about 20 feet back. My favorite band since 1982.
So awesome that you have this to share! Geoff and the band were one of a kind!
makes me smile...I was at a few of the shows during this time.. Tate was mind blowing and carried them to stardom the songs are OK but Tates voice was jaw dropping
The songs are OK? hahahaha Riiiiight. No question that Tate's vocals were outstanding, but the songs were more than just ok. Anyone who has followed their music since the beginning, knows that its was equally Chris Degarmo's riffs, arrangements, and song writing that also carried them to great success.
@@mgdarenz The 4 songs on this EP are really good, but nothing special (in terms of songwriting), but Tate's vocals made them sound that good. And that's undeniable.
I was at this show in the from row. I was 13 years old. AS soon as they hit the stage, I knew this new band wasn’t your average opening band. I was blown away and bought the EP the next day. Dio was insanely good. My first real concert.
Wow. I love the story how they just rehearsed constantly, never did local bar gigs, and then BOOM! The EP came out. I still remember opening up the jacket and putting it on the turntable. I was completely blown away! Some of the best music ever! And to replicate it perfectly live is beyond amazing! This sounds so much like the studio version, it's crazy. Thanks a ton for sharing! : )
My all time favorite Queensryche song QUEEN OF THE REICH
call me crazy but their best work is their 83 EP with queen of the reich. after they got signed to a major label their sound changed to conform to what the producers wanted and their original aggressive sound was suppressed.
i was at this show they actually played 2 shows that day one at 4 and onbe at 8pm opening up for dio. i was right up front awesome show i remember they played a song called prophecy that rocked too
saw them at the Roxy in Hollywood right after the EP was released sounded great live Amazing show.
What's amazing about Geoff Tate is! How much Power he uses to hit the high notes without using Falsetto!
unhealthy way, destroying the voice after just few years on tour...
I had pals in high school who loved these guys so much they formed a tribute band. And damn they killed it. I think one of the members ended up going to Berklee.
Saw the real band on the Empire tour (great show). For some reason the opening act was Suicidal Tendencies.
Glad you liked it!
Love!! I hope one day to get to see Geoff perform.
What a treasure, raw and stripped down but sounds perfect with it's imperfections, wouldn't have it any other way👊👊👊

THE EP was influenced by what Accept just put out, the songs are basic accept riffs redone but with the Mighty GEOFF TATE.
Very interesting take, but you are right. Very Restless and Wild influenced!
Very true. With some Iron Maiden mixed in, as well.
To ANY or ALL modern rock/metal singers (if they ARE any, that is!), PLEASE TAKE NOTE!
***** A really loose version, and Geoff sounds so young!
His E5s aren't as strong/deep as the Tokyo '84 or the later versions.
In my opinion, we'll NEVER, EVER hear such STELLAR OPERATIC vocals in the modern era! What a shame or disappointment!
So clean and great, so so fucking underrated
It is definetly an internet treasure ! Share it on Facebook and such.
Ya know what would be EVEN MORE incomprehensibly rare???🤔
The "video" of this track!!! 😉👍
I remember a good friend let me the mini EP in 83, The young lads got talent and with a singer that could give Halford a run for his money ! Amazing ! GREAT BAND !
nice, epic
Great!!
I was there!!
Its interesting as the crowd is so loud on Tates vocal crushing ...the shows I went to back then they were very unknown and most of the crowd had no idea who they were
Wow...
Wow! This makes Agent Steel sound like Crowbar.
Just reading about their early days in the new book - Building An Empire: The Story Of Queensrÿche.... I joined the fan club back then and was #104, got the 206 EP through the fan club and later found another one at a mall in Okla City....
I seen this tour also with a raw and heavy Twisted Sister!!!
Yes that was a fun leg of this tour ...TS was very kind to QR
Me too.....it was mind melting powerful and loud. Totally blown away.
TATE IZ GREAT
Awesome
Bad Assssssssssss!
Does anyone here remember the original video for this song? It was on the Rocket Report, and featured a b&w video with just two lights, one on either side of the drum riser.
Kept your great edges on through commercial popularity. Way out of NJ.
Ryche Flight on Heights !
TFS. Legendary when they were just breaking.
D'a chavo. Cóm cabta el dàtil. Fenomenal.😍

Thanks to RektorMcQuack for uploading this!!!

They were in San Jose 5 Oct 1983, and around 30th Oct in NY, then going to the North, so the description is incorrect.
👊👊
You're welcome!! :D
CRACKADON1 4 LAUGHS NOW
