The last disc sees the band In Concert from the London Marquee, in the summer of '77 at the height of the Punk Rock explosion. We've used the full 19 track raw mixing desk version of the show €" so much better than the overdubbed truncated version!

Sure to attract positive reviews from the likes of Vive La Rock and Record Collector as well as the many Punk blogs and will be supported by the current version of the band on their regular tours across the UK and Europe.
