Hereīs the second best of the circulating recordings I have with the Gang feat. Tommy B. There seem to be some disagreement over the date, I found february 14th to be the most widely circulated but donīt hold me to it. February seem to be the acknowledged month though.
A blistering set by the Gang, and it features my favourite Bang-song: The devil is singing our song. Very nice indeed! The quality is not like the earlier post, but still enoyable.
Just to add to the overall enjoyment I added five outtakes from Bang. There doesnīt seem to be much unreleased studiostuff circulating but I got these five tracks together with nine outtakes from Miami which are also very nice but deserve a post of their own. Iīm not a Gang-expert, so if any of these outtakes should appear to be fake - please post here and let us all know. They sound nice though and the two versions of Alexis are GREAT! The little information I got with these outtakes are added below.
Concert:
1. Funk 49
2. The devil is singing our song
3. Must be love
4. Stratus
5. Going down slow
6. Standing in the rain
