cdr -above average sound - Sound 3 - 64min - bc/m - tracks 20


A decent enough recording that has a ggod degree of clarity and range, though some slight distortion, particularly the vocals, and some tape wear.

Spitting was so bad and after some altercation, the band hurridly left the stage after Fought the Law.

The last date in the Uk with Mick on guitar, Joe announces he's got a cold earlier on. Short set.
