Guitar Wolf - Purple Onion, San Francisco 6-16-95

Guitar Wolf from Tokyo Japan have been around for a long time. This live show is from one of their early US tours. It's recorded from the audience and sound quality is good. Can anyone help with song titles?

  1. Hi!
    track 9 - 'Machine Gun Guitar'
    I'm sorry but I can't identify the rest, probably many of them they are from "Kung Fu Ramone" (1994), which I don't know. Maybe you can get some more song titles from this VHS release:
    https://www.discogs.com/Guitar-Wolf-Guitar-Wolf-vs-San-Francisco-Wolf/release/3547788
    It was released in 1995 and bsides I saw somewheer that it was released June and 'Only sold on the U.S. tour and in Japan'. Quite probably it includes much of the songs played at the Purple Onion.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers,
    J.
