ROBERT GORDON'S - "Red Hot" 30th Anniversary Tour
In April 2007, it will be 30 years ago that Robert Gordon recorded his first hit "Red Hot". The song was so
radically different from everything else that was going on in the charts at the time, that a lot of fans today still
remember the impact of first hearing it. The song was released right in the middle of the disco craze, so hearing
"Red Hot’" was like a breath of fresh air. Today, the song is regarded as the start of the 2nd rockabilly wave. As
Robert himself says: "It opened a lot of doors for a lot of people". To celebrate that fact, Robert will go on a
major European tour in April. He will perform all the classic Robert Gordon songs, as well as a couple of
favorites from his forthcoming album. He will be backed by the aptly-named "Red Hot", a terrific 4-piece band
from Finland who have backed Robert on various occasions in the past. This band is specialized in reproducing
the original sound on Robert's albums very authentically, so he felt that they would be perfect for this special tour.
Come and celebrate this special milestone, and try to catch a show near you. Robert will also be celebrating his
60th birthday, so enough reason to make this tour one great celebration of the man and his achievements.
