Michael, George
Rock In Rio 2 (2lp)
In January 1991, George Michael began his 'Cover To Cover' tour, comprising 30 shows across the UK, Brazil, Japan, Canada and the USA. The tour was not billed specifically to promote his new album but was more about Michael singing covers of his favourite songs, mixed with a smattering of new tracks, and a selection of oldies. On 27th January '91, George performed at the second Rock In Rio Festival in Brazil's second city, where he gave one of the tour's very finest performances. The show included an unexpected appearance from George's old Wham! partner, Andrew Ridgely, for a three-track encore to conclude the concert which included versions of 'Careless Whisper,' 'I'm Your Man' and 'Freedom.' Recorded for live TV and Radio Broadcast, the full concert is now available on this double LP set on clear vinyl, which features this magnificent performance in its entirety.
