Comments:

This show was part of the group's "Doc At The Radar Station" Promo Tour in Europe.

The Venue (Virgin Records' Night Club)

A good show from fairly early into the first leg of the 1980/81 Tour. Very cool vocals on "Safe As Milk", pretty intense actually. Cool little horn solo during the last part of "Sheriff Of Hong Kong". "Hot Head" is a bit "off" here and has a different feel that most other versions performed on this tour. Enjoy.

NEVER FOR SALE / FREE / TRADE ALWAYS AND ONLY. Thank you.
