C.I.D \/ No Rules \/ Lady Esquire \/ Telephone Numbers \/ World War \/ Disease \/ Stranglehold<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\nRecorded \u2018live\u2019 at the Roxy Club, Covent Garden, London, WC2 during the sessions that produced the\u00a0\u2018Farewell To The Roxy\u2019 LP over three\u00a0nights 31\/12\/77 to 02\/01\/78. This\u00a0material performed by the band that included Steve Slack on bass and Rory Lyons on Drums. Paul Slack and Pete Davies from the \u2018classic\u2019 line up joined up with Charlie Harper and Nicky Garrett being the mainstays of the band, later on in 1978. A very tight performance for a half empty club by the sound of it.<\/p>\n

UK Subs emerged from Tooting based Charlie Harper\u2019s R & B pub rock roots, getting more with the punk ethic at the beginning of 1977, and became the band that all folk that pass by this site will recognised as a true \u2018peoples\u2019 band. Charlie always, like Strummer, had time for a chat and to answer the same old questions put to him at gigs that some 12 year old would ask, with much patience. A high point in my youth was performing \u2018Stranglehold\u2019 with the band at Stevenage Bowes Lyon House, sad though it is, it still remains the high point going into young middle age\u2026oh well! I was also a member of the UK Subs fan club until 1981 or 82\u2026the only fan club I have ever joined!<\/p>\n
Such great 7\u2033 single releases, all on coloured vinyl, LP\u2019s that were in alphabet named order and in coloured vinyl. I never heard anything from the Subs I am ashamed to say after the LP beginning with D (\u2018Diminished Responsibility\u2019\u00a0fourth official release).\u00a0 This release on Stiff Records was not really official and was sold on mail order in 1980 after the band had several T.O.T.P\u2019s appearances and were one of the larger names in \u2018Street Punk\u2019 bands, like The Rut\u2019s and Sham 69. Even the pictures on the back of the sleeve are of a different line up (i.e. the popular one) that performed long after The Roxy had closed it\u2019s doors.<\/p>\n
My copy of this record has from time to time a pressing fault so mucho apologies to your ears if you hear annoying scratches in this upload.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
