Police and Thieves from Lochem is amazing. Ramshackle as fuck but amazing.

Re: First bootleg you heard
It's a bizzare gig with Topper playing the intro to GoB when the song is KYR. Some of the tracks are great but the bulk are poorly played with Mick's guitar out of tune etc. It's a great show from that perspective but not a great show in Clash terms.

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Re: First bootleg you heard
Supposedly the Lochem boot we have is not the full concert. There are rumors of an encore including Straight to Hell which would be notable as the only live Topper performance of that song. It's mentioned on bmc including a quote from someone there.Marky Dread wrote: ↑30 Oct 2017, 1:23pm?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????matedog wrote: ↑30 Oct 2017, 11:39amAlso the mythical encore with the only Topper Straight to Hell.Marky Dread wrote: ↑30 Oct 2017, 10:35amIt's a bizzare gig with Topper playing the intro to GoB when the song is KYR.

Maybe.

I know it's a Terry performance, but the version on FHTE is one of my all time favorites. Pretty much exclusively because Joe's performance.101Walterton wrote: ↑30 Oct 2017, 2:11pmAs I’ve said before when I saw them on Terry tour STH was a show highlight.
