Golden Earring - Quiet Eyes (live, 1986, at a concert on the beach for 185,000 fans) [View all]

This was the single from Golden Earring's 18th album, The Hole, and in the Netherlands they did a free promo concert on the beach at Scheveningen. The single made it only to #31 on Billboard's rock chart in the States, but was a Top 10 hit in the Netherlands.

Very sad that their lead guitarist and second lead vocalist, George Kooymans, highplainsdem Feb 2022 #2

Two of the songs where Kooymans took the lead vocal. He also cowrote most of their songs. highplainsdem Feb 2022 #3

Kooymans doesn't take the lead vocal on "Vanilla Queen," but his guitar solos at 3:15 and 8:20 highplainsdem Feb 2022 #4
