Final show of the first phase of Tygers of Pan Tang - Japan 43 years ago. Just one TV appearance to go and that was it!

Tygers, Phil Campbell, Chris Holmes and King Kraken in a castle in Wales. What's not to like?🎸

On the turntable tonight at Tyger Towers. John Sykes loved the Beatles and would entertain us in rehearsals by ripping out Beatles riffs. 🎸

We have never been sure where this was taken. Best guess is at John's debut when we played a secret gig as 'The Wild Cats' at Wallsend Co-op Hall as a warm up for John's first show proper at the Reading Festival.

John Sykes rolls up his sleeves to begin his first ever recording session with Tygers of Pan Tang. Location - Guardian Studios, Pity Me, Co Durham, UK. Spellbound demo sessions.
