Xmal Deutschland The Clarendon Hotel Hammersmith 7th April 1983


So an obvious Stranglers connection here, albeit from a few years prior to the bands' association. It is such a shame that this is only a partial recording of the gig. I think I recall somewhere the original taper stating that they had accidentally erased side two of the cassette. As I say, it is a shame because this is a good sounding recording of a band that were in their prime by 1983. Several of the songs in this set are now played live when singer Anja Huwe performs. This from the 'Kill Your Pet Puppy' website.

CORRECTION: The audio presented here is from an earlier gig of 7th April 1983 when the band played at the Clarendon with Danse Society and Ipso Facto.  Artwork has been corrected.

The review below is of the 7th July gig.

This gig was reviewed in the 23rd July issue of New Musical Express.
