OU: There's a little bit of hiss on this fine recording but I just left it there.
I had the great privilege of seeing Ian and the boys at the Apollo Theatre in Glasgow, June 1978. They put on a great show and we went round to the stage door afterwards. The road crew invited us in, and we ended up in the dressing room, sharing some beers with Ian and the band. They were just ordinary guys....RIP Ian Dury.
share the music!

Superb set from Ian Dury- from a period when he recorded with The Music Students rather than with the Blockheads, and taken from the BBC 'Sight and Sound in Concert' series (sound on BBC Radio One FM/VHF, and sight on BBC TV. (According to web sources accessed in 1/09, it remains in question what the reasons for the temporary split with the Blockheads may have been, but disputes over payment have been rumoured)- this period and the album at the time were critically poorly received, (and at the time of writing the album has never been issued on cd), although judging from this it can't have been bad, as this is a superb set. One of my favourite tape transfers so far. Sound is excellent- with very little hiss. The last track is cut slightly short, as the allotted time for the radio programme was up.
