ROB SEZ: These live shows demonstrate what Groovies fans have known for a long time: the group started out as a cover band, and never stopped loving & covering classic rock & pop tunes. Along the way, they recorded some pretty good songs of their own. BIG THANKS to spurensicherung.blogspot for sharing the 1987 set and to Patrick for sharing the 2015 Paris show. This marks the end of the Flamin' Groovies mini series. ENJOY!
