Founded in 1961 by George Kooymans and Rinus Gerritsen, Dutch rock band Golden Earring (or Golden Earring's, until 1969) started off as a beat band, experimented as a psychedelic quartet and finally became a heavy rock group. Their ninth album Moontan (1973) hit the international album charts and is the band's most successful album in the United States, being the only Golden Earring album to be certified Gold by the RIAA. Switch is the tenth studio album by Golden Earring, released in 1975 as the follow-up of the band's international breakthrough album Moontan. Switch actually marked a switch for Golden Earring, as it was more influenced by funk and prog than any of the band's previous or subsequent releases. Lead single Kill Me (Ce Soir) perfectly demonstrates how Golden Earring experimented with a new sound. Apart from a variety of previously unreleased outtakes and rough mixes, this 50th anniversary reissue of Switch features an unreleased track "Action Alice & Bow-Tie Basil". Recorded during the Switch sessions, this is the first time the band has approved a previously unreleased finished studio track f ATTENTION: please remember that all Blu-Rays are Region A USA and all DVDs Region 1 USA and you will need a multi region Blu-Ray/DVD player to play them.
