BEEHIVE CANDY

This is the second live concert by The Bangles featured here on Beehive Candy. I was surprised just how popular the 1983 concert has been in terms of downloads, this however is from the band around their most popular period, with Manic Monday, and Walk Like An Egyptian becoming major hits for the band both sides of the Atlantic. This gig took place in New York, USA, during 1986, sorry I do not have venue or date details. Source: FM radio broadcast. Sound Quality: Very good quality stereo @192kbps mp3. Genre: Rock to pop - all girl group. Set: Just over 57 minutes so possible radio edit, however this amounts to sixteen songs.

This is the band performing in Valencia, which a quick google suggests, is a pretty up market and wealthy location, sorry I do not know the specific venue. In actual fact the band played two shows on this date, and I am pleased to have both of them to share, hence some songs appear twice, however they are very much to individual performances. This is The Bangles - Valencia, CA, USA on the 27th May 1983.
