Music Hall, Frankfurt September 1988 concert poster
Original first printing concert poster advertising English rock group Smokie at the Music Hall in Frankfurt [Germany] on Tuesday, 27th September, 1988, by Rainer Hänsel. The show in Frankfurt was part of the band’s Fall 1988 German tour in support of the All Fired Up! album, produced by the band themseles and released on the Maze Music label. Though Smokie had begun work on a comeback, in 1986, singer Chris Norman announced that he was to leave the band. He was replaced by Alan Barton, formerly of Black Lace. Smokie also recruited keyboard player Martin Bullard. Pete Spencer quit and was replaced on drums by Steve Pinnell. The new lineup released All Fired Up!, which brought some attention and contained a new version of “Rock Away Your Tear Drops”, the song that had been the title track to Chris Norman’s debut album.
The poster measures exactly 59.5 x 83.9 cm (approx. 23.4″ by 33″ inches) and is beautifully printed on thin, gloss-coated paper stock. In excellent unfolded condition. Feel free to email us with any questions you may have concerning this item. Additional images of the poster available on request.
