EUROPE: 'Live At Sweden Rock - 30th Anniversary Show' Double CD, DVD, Blu-Ray Detailed

September 2, 2013

EUROPE's 30th-anniversary performance at this year's edition of the Sweden Rock Festival in Sölvesborg, Sweden was the band's only Swedish concert of 2013 and the stage show was one of the greatest, if not the greatest of the band's entire career. The setlist was specially composed from EUROPE's entire nine-album discography, including their cult debut "Europe" (1983),multi-million-seller "The Final Countdown" (1986) and their most recent outing, "Bag Of Bones" (2012),which has now reached gold status in Sweden. The performance was also professionally filmed and recorded for release on double CD, DVD and Blu-ray, to be made available on October 16 in Scandinavia via Gain, in the rest of Europe through Edel, and in Japan via JVC.

"Live At Sweden Rock - 30th Anniversary Show" contains live renditions of 28 songs, including cover versions of THIN LIZZY's "Jailbreak" (featuring a guest appearance by THIN LIZZY's Scott Gorham) and UFO's "Lights Out" (featuring ex-UFO guitarist Michael Schenker).
