Here's a great sounding (soundboard?) recording of 999 down in Portsmouth in 1987. The gig took place just a week before the General Election that saw Thatcher returned for a third term. The gig also coincided with the release of the band's lavie album 'Lust, Power & Money'. The two new tracks that appeared on that album, the title track and 'White Trash' are featured in this set, although neither enjoyed longevity in 999's set. Nick is his usual ebullient self on the night as he leads the band through their typcal high energy set.
