Live Recordings 1976 to Date

999 The Vortex 30th August 1977


Again perhaps the earliest surviving live recording of the band (outside band members and early associates at least). Interestingly, seven of the songs in this 42 year old recording, from the '77 London punk club second only to The Roxy, still appear in the set to this day. Testament to their enduring quality! A clear indication of the fact that this is early in the band's career is that no less than three songs are played twice over the course of a 40 minute set!
