live at rockpalast 2005

"IRISH COFFEE" was one of the best hardrock-bands from the seventies that ever came out of BELGIUM. Though the band recorded only 1 LP & 4 Singles, all collectors-items ,they are regarded as one of the important masterpieces of hardrock worldwide.The band stayed together from 1970 till 1975 and played a lot of concerts together with some great bands like,Golden Earring,Uriah Heep,Focus,Chicken Shack,Chris Farlowe and many more.Their one European "hit" was "Masterpiece",that you can hear on this MySpace, plus 3 more songs from their 1971 album. The band got together again in 2002 and recorded a new Album on the Fuzzy label. 30 years later, in 2005 to our surprise there was a comeback at a Rockpalast gig in December 2005. From the old personell there are still 2 musicians on stage : William Souffreau, the main songwriter and singer and Luc de Clus, the genious Solo-Guitarrist. This music is timeless and the three other younger musicians dont let you think that this is an Oldie event; we listen to modern rock that has its roots deep in the seventies - from the altogether 14 tracks 8 tracks have been released in the seventies on singles and on the one and only LP. It was a fantastic Rockpalast gig that was aired from German Television WDR in January 2006 for half an hour. SECOND BATTLE now releases as a limited 1000 copies edition both on CD and Double-LP the whole concert that lasts for almost 64 minutes. The recordings have been especially remastered once again for CD and Vinyl and have now a much better ,Power-sound" and will bring to smile all rockfans that like early seventies rock to listen to in top quality.
