Description
THIS IS AN EXTREMELY RARE, "SEMI-OFFICIAL" 1977 JAPANESE RELEASE BY THE LEGENDARY STRANGLERS DURING THEIR TOUR FOR "RATTUS NORVEGICUS" THAT YEAR, OOING A FEW SONGS THAT DID NOT MAKE IT TO LATER LIVE ALBUMS !! AT THAT TIME, JAPANESE VINYL WAS CONSIDERED TO BE THE BEST IN THE WORLD, WHICH MAKES THIS CONCERT ALL THE MORE ENJOYABLE !!
WE NEVER FIGURED OUT WHY TAPES OF A 1977 CONCERT AT LONDON'S NOTEWORTHY ROUNDHOUSE WOULD MAKE IT TO JAPAN FOR THIS ALBUM, BUT IT SOUNDS BETTER THAN MOST OFFICIAL RELEASES AT THAT TIME !! WE SUSPECT THAT THE BAND WAS INVOLVED, BUT WE HAVE NO PROOF, ONLY A PLAIN WHITE LABEL....
THIS RECORD WAS PLAYED ONCE FOR RECORDING & THEN PUT AWAY, SHIELDED BY INNER & OUTER PLASTIC. WE BELIEVE IT WAS ORIGINALLY A PROMO ITEM THAT WAS PURCHASED AT THE LONG-GONE, WELL-LOVED WAX TRAX IN CHICAGO, ILLINOIS IN THE EARLY 1980s. THE VINYL IS IMMACULATE !!!
THE SONGS ARE AS FOLLOWS: A-SIDE-- 1. DEAD RINGER; 2. SOMETIMES; 3. DAGENHAM DAVE; 4. HANGIN' AROUND; 5 VEINS 6. BURNING UP TIME; B-SIDE -- 1..STRAIGHTEN OUT; 2. EAST END STUDS; 3. SOMETHING BETTER CHANGE; 4. LONDDON LADY; 5. PEACHES.
