Joan Armatrading - Joan Armatrading-Steppin'Out

These two concerts from the German TV series Rockpalast straddle the release of Joan Armatrading's classic album 'Me Myself I'.

The first show from 1979 is an intimate show at the WDR Studio in Cologne in front of an appreciative audience. The second show from 1980 is in the vast surroundings of the Grugahalle in Essen and reflects her commercial success in the intervening year and contains several tracks from the new album.

The DVD gives a fascinating contrast between the earlier low key show and the more electric upbeat style of the later event.
