This week's Deadpod takes us across the pond to London, where the band kicked off their Spring European tour of 1981 on March 20 at the Rainbow Theater.
They come out smoking on 'Feel Like A Stranger' and you know they were looking forward to this.. 'Friend of the Devil' which follows is played leisurely, they are in no hurry to get through this evening. 'C.C. Rider' follows with a bit of the blues.. This tape sounds wonderful, and all these tunes have a great treatment.. I'm a sucker for a great 'Loser' and this one doesn't disappoint, nor does 'Candyman'.. the set closing 'Deal' is incendiary..
