Paul Young and his band, tagged The Royal Family, appeared live on Rockpalast in Essen on 30th March 1985. With the finances and backing to bring together a band capable of serving as the perfect foil to his tried and tested white soul/pop amalgam the Rockpalast shows Young, brimming with confidence and at the peak of his pop powers. With a nine-piece band (Young included) they exude a stylish and classy delivery that includes all the hits and album tracks of the period that allowed him to reach a peak of popularity where his boyish and youthful good looks helped propel him into the mainstream pop world. Listening and watching back today three-decades (plus) on it's obvious he already learned his trade.

Available as a first pressing of 1000 individually numbered copies on orange coloured vinyl. The package includes an insert.
