The original line-up’s last UK tour was in support of the 10 album. I saw them several times on this stint and thought it was always an amazing gig! They were to lose Hugh Cornwell by August, but this is probably the ultimate document of this era. A tight and energetic show they clearly are having fun and are at the top of their game. They were recording every show they did after being put in prison in 1980 in Nice, France, owing to comments allegedly made by bass player JJ Burnel. Being free spirits who didn’t buy corporate bullshit they were always one comment away from controversy. This is why I love them. So luckily for us, a few of these tapes has found thee way into fans’ hands and this is one of the best. This is a great recording. All the effects and left / right panning you’d hear at the gig are present. The band did release a lot of tracks from this tour as B-sides and extras and I suspect a professional got their hands on this before I did. It’s a medium generation tape, ripped and mastered at 24bit/96k. Finalized as 16 bit/44k FLACs
