Monday Morning Rock: Golden Earring--Radar Love (1974)

The rock band that has success AND longevity are few and far between.. The number of bands who have both with basically the same lineup are even fewer. Which is what makes the dutch band, Golden Earring so interesting. They formed in 1961 as The Tornadoes, but changed it after finding another band with the same name. Since 1970 they have had the same lineup and with it soon came fame in Europe and in the US with "Radar Love" in 1974, and then again with "Twilight Zone" in 1982. They have not toured the US since 1984 choosing to focus on mostly European countries, and they have an interesting "one month on-one month off" policy...which may be why they have never suffered burnout....
