Found this on youtube. Just over 40 years ago their last concert in Manchester, I was both old and lucky enough to be there - pretty good quality for an audience recording
big up to all the jam fans and weller fans, here is a great bootleg channel on youtube
Where have you been? Thanks for posting, need to keep them on the front page of BM. I was lucky enough to see them 18 times.
As an 17 year old it was for me, an affirmation that my generation had a future. Incredible nights, and they were only on stage for about an hour and a quarter!!
The raw energy and ferocity of their playing will always stay with me.
In November 1979 my older brother, me and a couple of others were at the Mcr Apollo, for the Setting Sons tour, we were literally hanging onto the stage for most of the time, (the first six rows of seats were removed for punk/new wave gigs). Then they started Eton Rifles, and the whole crowd got loud and giddy, my brother disappeared from beside me....
Suddenly I saw him on stage stood on stage, stood near Bruce's microphone. Mr Foxton stood back and beckoned big Nick to sing he chorus. At which point he was rugby tackled by the sound crew. and chucked outside.
But to me he will always be their 4th member as the band's manager John said ' The best band in the fucking world'
