I forgot how awesomely good Steve Negus is. His drumming is incredible

Geil geil geil,das war der pure Wahnsinn zu DDR Zeiten zu einem solchen Konzert gehen zu können.

Heads or Tales Tour 1983 - my first live concert ever I think - absolute awesome. Not in Suhl but in Würzburg with Chris Rea as supporting act. Hmmm - thinking about to go for their show in Nürnberg this summer.

Yes, I remember that tour with Chris Rea. Went to several shows. Great memories.

Danke für das Posten! Ich war damals dabei, 16 Jahre alt und habe meine erste Liebe getroffen. Tolles Konzert!

Thanks for posting. This is the tour I would most like to get on a DVD. First time I saw them. And really them at their height of popularity. What Jim C says in the interview is exactly what made Saga. Every album new instruments and new sounds yet not sounding like any other song. They were amazing that way.

There is DVD of exactly this concert, "Saga im Konzert-Live in Suhl 1983".😁

Ich wäre so gerne dabei gewesen. Hab leider keine Karten bekommen. Habe sie dann nach der Wende in Hof gesehen und bin heute noch begeistert davon .

Former East Germany w/ its carrier, Interflug. Must have been an experience for the guys

Thanxxs for posting. I will always love these guys .it has been my pleasure to meet them even if I had to wait til 2017,get my passport and drive to Canada to do it!! WUSB.FM NY/ WAXX TRAXX TO THE MAXX

The best live recording of "wind him up" was from "Rock am Ring 1985" (also on YT), where it sounds like 2 guitars are used. Ian plays one, the other may be a recording. I dunno. Sounds fabulous either way!!!

Another jewel!!! Thanks KZread

Great progressive rock band....too bad the didn't break the US market

THE BEST AFTER RUSH

The band seemingly had loads of technical problems on this one. Still a great era.

We are back in Suhl! See you all tomorrow night ;)

I was member of the concert security as part of the free youth organization of our highschool. We had to stop the people from overrunning you, while one of the band (you?) was throwing cigarettes into the crowd. ;-)

You are the real guy from Saga?😃 Can't believe it.😅 That's awesome.

I wonder if Erich Honecker had any regrets to letting this Canadian band perform...?

als Ossi hast du Jahre davon gezerrt.. unfassbar dass Saga in die DDR konnte

Rupert Hine was the producer

Sind die nicht damals neben den Puhdys aufgetreten?

Big synth bugs there 🙂 quite funny

Was it after this tour they change from moog to other synth brands?
