CD Saxon – Rock 'N Roll Gypsies

Capture the raw energy of British heavy metal legends with Saxon’s 1989 live release, Rock 'N Roll Gypsies. Released through Enigma Records after the band parted ways with EMI, this album documents a pivotal era for the group as they toured Eastern Europe and reclaimed their creative footing.

A must-have for collectors, this release marks the significant return of powerhouse drummer Nigel Glockler and the official debut of bassist Timothy ‘Nibbs’ Carter. This lineup change breathed new life into the band’s stage presence, offering a driving and "ballsy" sound that contrasts with their earlier live recordings.

The tracklist provides a high-octane journey through the band’s late-80s repertoire, featuring no song duplication with their 1982 live classic, The Eagle Has Landed. Highlights include thunderous versions of:

• "Power and the Glory"
• "And the Bands Played On"
• "Dallas 1PM"
• "Battle Cry"
• "Rock the Nations"
• "This Town Rocks"

Whether you are a completist or a fan of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, Rock 'N Roll Gypsies is an essential piece of history from one of the genre’s most enduring acts.
