KING DIAMOND

Unofficial live recording released in 2015 featuring 8 tracks recorded at Fender's Ballroom in Long Beach, California (USA) on August 15th, 1986, during the tour supporting "Fatal Portrait", KING DIAMOND's solo debut following the breakup of MERCYFUL FATE. The release captures the band at a pivotal moment, when King Diamond's distinctive blend of horror, theatricality and dark Heavy Metal was beginning to take its definitive shape.

Recorded only a few months after the release of "Fatal Portrait", the performance presents a band still in the early stages of its career but already operating with remarkable confidence on stage. Featuring a set focused on material from the debut album and a lineup including Andy LaRocque and Michael Denner, this recording offers a valuable snapshot of a crucial period in KING DIAMOND's evolution and will be of particular interest to collectors and fans of his earliest solo years.
