Chuck Berry Paris Olympia 16 july 1981 aud SM master

Good sounding recording made from the Olympia balcony if i remember well (Sony TCD5M and 2 Beyer M201 N mics).

During Little queenie, an idiot put teargas on stage and then pure Hollywood studios scene happened: Chuck falling down like beeing shot, being taken backstage by the security just like a dead man, and then coming back with full energy to finish the show.
The art of playing less but taking all the money...

I have more Chuck material to do another torrent- surprise soon.
