(Translated from Dutch into English using babelfish.altavista.com)
The Dutch New Adventures started in Groningen, Holland in 1978. Part-of the new-wave culture at the time brought them great success. The trio contributes their style to Cuby & the Blizzard, Gallagher, Cream, Hendrix, at Years After and ZZ-Top. Vocals and guitar are by Peter Bootsman, drummer is Henk Torpedo and bass player Harry de Winter.

They secured a contract with Polydor about 1979, stands the trio in the voorprogramma of a tournee of applied Golden Earring! In 1980, Earrings producer/guitarist George Kooymans helped with the first LP “New Adventures” and the group scored a hit with the track “Come On”. Kooymans also produced their second LP “Wild Cats Moanin’”, the group develloped an enviable reputation as a fantastic live act and on 8 June 1981 they perform at a pop-festival. In front of 50,000 rockfans they remain one of Hollands top groups. Third LP was “Follow”.

After a short silence, they returned with the fourth LP, “Radiator”. Henk has been replaced by the new drummer Peter Walrecht, their style became more contemporary

A further and longer period of silence from the band, followed by the “Best-off (best Adventures)” and a live-LP “Life is a mess” was released. At the end of 1989 Scorpions producer Dierks, Peter and Harry went to Germany to start a new project.
