Good live LP with songs from nine different shows recorded between 1982 and 1985, sound quality is OK. Music-wise, this spans the period between their hardcore phase and the beginnings of their more rocking period. (TB) [7]

Absolut astreiner Melody-HC, der die spätere Entwicklung der Band ins Rockige schon ahnen läßt, aber noch ziemlich nahe an den Punkroots liegt. Songs wie ’The next time’ oder ’Hall of Fame’ muss man einfach kennen. Aufnahmequalität variiert, ist aber immer OK. Kaufen. (TB)
