These recordings...

All the recordings I post here will be what I think are VG+(B/B+) quality and unless stated otherwise will be audience recordings. They will not be to everyone's taste but the idea is to give fellow music fans a chance to hear rare recordings from a certain era(the 80's).Many of these I have had stored away for 30+ years and will be available for the first time...

If it's soundboard A+ quality you are after these will not be for you...BUT I would never post anything that was unlistenable.. So pop the headphones on and grab your air guitar of choice... lets ROCK

ok... unlike are cousins across the pond we here in the uk cannot do full glam rock.. it's embarrassing and it just does not work.BUT what we do have is a sense of humour and when we do try it we do it with our tongues placed firmly in our cheeks...here is the perfect example the MIGHTY WRATHCHILD.They arrived on the scene in the early 80's demanding world domination... well they didn't quite achieve that but they gave us some great gigs and some really good tunes. Here is the first of my double header live at the clarendon arms,hammersmith a tiny little club not far away from the odeon.... but it gets better.....

now let me explain about the verulem arms,this was my local back then 100 yards from home and I would pop down most nights,then in '82 they decided to turn one of the bars into a venue for gigs.which was great but the sound was never any good never mind who was playing..also the bar was all round so I would be watching rocky from wrathchild telling us what he was going to do to a certain female and how he was going to do it and at the same time I would look across the bar and there would be paddy supping his pint while reading the racing post...beyond surreal!!!
That aside I thought wrathchild rocked so get some lipstick on and enjoy...ed

    Ed do you still have these recordings anywhere. I would love to here them. Was at Clarendon Ballroom (many many moons ago!)
