Description
~A treasured sound source that includes a high-quality stereo audience recording of the strongest live performance in 1978, the year after the release of the debut work “NEW BOOTS AND PANTIES!!”! ~The single “Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll” released on the Stiff label reached number 3 in the UK charts, and their debut album “NEW BOOTS AND PANTIES!!” released in September 1977 ranked 5th in the UK charts. Ian Dury & The Blockheads were on a roll after recording a huge hit! This work is a treasured sound source that is a high-quality stereo audience recording of the live performance held at the famous place Paradiso in Amsterdam from the spring European tour on March 3, 1978! The sound source of this day is a sound board recording of an FM broadcast on the same label’s already released album “VPRO MASTERS 1978”, but only 11 songs are excerpted, and the opening “Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll” is also incomplete due to a fade-in. It was a great recording. This work uses the master recorded by the audience, and the range is wide and the vocals as well as each part are well-balanced and clear sound images, and it is recorded with good sound quality that was in the upper class at the time! It is recorded from the band introduction MC by The Clash’s public relations and tour manager Cosmo Vinyl, who announces the opening, and includes numbers from the masterpiece “NEW BOOTS AND PANTIES!!”, as well as famous songs from the Kilburn and High Roads era “Upminster Kid” “,Don’t miss hearing “Billy Bentley”! 01.Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll 02.Upminster Kid 03.I’m Partial To Your Abracadabra 04.Wake Up And Make Love With Me 05.Clevor Trever 06.Billy Bentley (Promenades Himself Around London) 07.If I Was With A Woman 08.More Than Fair 09.My Old Man 10.Billericay Dickie 11.Sweet Gene Vincent 12.What A Waste 13.Plaistow Patricia 14.I Made Mary Cry 15.Blackmail Man 16.Blockheads 17.England’s Glory 18.
