Frank Marino - Le Bataclan, Paris, France 1983

Frank Marino was on the Juggernaut tour when he played this somewhat troubled show at Le Bataclan in Paris.
Due to various problems Frank and band were only able to play for about an hour and a half :)
It's all explained, in French and English, in the interview (track 15) Frank gave the day after in the radio show ''Prohibition" broadcast on Radio 7.
Basically they started playing too late and there was a curfew so the show had to be shortened.
The sound on this one is quite rough, almost for fans only.

A pity for the quality on this one, Juggernaut is amongst my top twenty favourite albums of all time. Will give it a listen. Thanks for sharing,

Greetings from Paris

Derek, although not an all time favourite, Juggernaut is certainly my preferred Frank Marino studio album.

The sound is not as bad as I expected, reading the comment. Thanks for this post.
