These three torrents make up the whole bill for the first night of the ÒLife On The LineÓ tour; Eddie and the Hot Rods, Radio Stars and Squeeze. This show was at the Top Rank Suite, Brighton, UK, on Wednesday, February 15th 1978. I think the tickets were £1.25.
We recorded the shows on a nameless, generic stereo cassette recorder with two of the cheapest microphones known to man, from the centre of the balcony, directly facing the stage.
The sound is good, all things considered. There is a full, room sound and a strong mix throughout. There was always good sound at the Top Rank.
The headliners had just released their second album and were at the height of their powers. In truth, their time at the top was beginning to run out.
