Ok, so there's some very clear Stranglers connections with this one, from Hazel's cover of 'Hanging Around' to her vocal support at the Rainbow gig in early April 1980, when her then beau, Hugh Cornwell was incarcerated just down the road in H.M.P. Pentonville.
I saw Hazel once in 1989 or '90 at Brunel University. At that time she explained that this was her third visit to the university campus, the first being to see the Pistols gig in December 1977 and the second when she was promoting 'Breaking Glass'.
This then is a reasonably early set, which does feature some strong songs.

ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing, might have. Listen to this one later.
The quality is quite good Steve and I haven't seen too many live recordings around.
ReplyDeleteI thought Sons & Lovers was pretty good, after persevering with it so I'm looking forward to this. I used to have an older recording from Rockstage, would love to get another copy of that if anyone has it.
ReplyDeleteNice one, looking forward to listening to this.
