A decent audience recording of this gig on the west coast of America at the old Fillmore building at this point in time called the Elite Club, and run by ‘Rat Music For Rat People’ LP person Paul Rat… Bad Brains were always a massively awesome live experience if you were lucky to catch them in the early to mid 1980’s. The quality of this tape is not as good as the previous C.B.G.B’s recorded Bad Brains post I uploaded on this site several months ago (use search function), but this is still a great sounding gig.

An American friend who was into Bad Brains once sent me a tape on which Bad Brains (I fink) did a live version of Queen’s “We will rock you”. It was SUPERB! Has anyone else heard it & what record was it on?
Gracias.
