Moontan
Moontan is the ninth studio album by Dutch rock band Golden Earring, first released in August 1973 through Polydor internationally, Track Records in the United Kingdom, and MCA Records in the United States. It contains the radio hit "Radar Love". Moontan is the band's most successful album in the United States, being the only Golden Earring album to be certified Gold by the RIAA.
"Vanilla Queen" twice samples Marilyn Monroe's character in There's No Business Like Show Business: "Well, in simple English I'm..." from the "Lazy" performance and "What's your name, Honey?" from the "Heat Wave" performance.
All tracks are written by George Kooymans and Barry Hay, except where noted.
This is also the track listing on the original UK vinyl release (see above), as well as on early U.S. LP pressings (Track/MCA 396). The U.S. version of the album was originally issued with the UK "exotic dancer" cover with Jilly Johnson, but this was quickly withdrawn and replaced with the "earring" cover depicted at right.
In September 2021, Moontan Remastered & Expanded, a new 2CD edition of the 1973 classic album, was released, featuring the original album newly remastered for the first time from the first-generation master tapes, and featuring six bonus tracks, nine previously unreleased mixes/different versions, a 32-page booklet with a new essay, memorabilia, and photos.
