Golden Earring (1961-2021)

Do they have a good representative hits album or classic live album? I only know Radar Love and Kill Me Ce Soir.
 
These are two big hits I'm sure you must have heard:

Twilight Zone, 1982
When the Lady Smiles, 1984 (the video clip was too much for the USA though)

Back Home, 1970. Was their first hit and pretty known as well.

Enjoyable concert registrations on YouTube.

1975, San Francisco (USA) (during this time the band was expanded with some other musicians)

1982, Rockpalast (Germany)

Some favourite songs/albums of mine:

I recommend the whole Eight Miles High (1969) album which features Sabbathish music, but also psychedelic.
And the whole Golden Earring (1970) album as well.

She Flies on Strange Wings, 1971

Vanilla Queen, 1973 (probably my fav!!)
awesome live versions:

Sleepwalkin', 1976

This is their first live album, Live (1977)

(might continue this later)

Just looking at a couple of live albums on spotify, and Kill Me (Ce Soir) is on a few recent ones, but not on the ones from their heyday. Is it a case that Maiden covering it created a bit of interest in the song?
 
It seems that they toured with the song in the setlist at the time. 1975. Anyway they have an extended album catalog with ton of songs. But you could be right and they could rescued it after Maiden cover who knows.
