Paris Bataclan 11.12.79 is a recently recovered recording of the Steve Hillage Band from 11th December 1979 at the famous Bataclan, Paris.
 
The album documents a sparkling and joyous performance from one of the 20th Century’s guitar greats and his band: Miquette Giraudy - synthesiser, vocals; Andy Anderson - drums; Paul Francis - bass, vocals; Dave Stewart - guitar.
 
Starting with the only version in Steve’s archive of a live performance of Earthrise, the lovingly remastered tapes include never-before-heard versions of 19 classic SH tracks.
 
“The level of musical performance is pretty astonishing, and my lead guitar performance is definitely at a peak - totally scorching in places.”  - Steve Hillage
 
2CDs in 6 panel digipak with 12 page booklet including liner notes from Steve and previously unseen photographs.
