Reissues

A live recording from 1977! First time on vinyl! Previously only available on CD as part of the Past and Future Landslide 3CD box set!&nbsp;Live At The Queens Hotel Margate 1977. It was 1977 and things were progressing extremely well. We had signed to Beggars
Banquet and our first single ‘Shadow’ b/w ‘Love Story’ had been released. John Peel had been playing both sides of the single most
nights on his radio show, so we were getting heard by a lot of people. But we didn’t yet have a "proper" tour bus, so we all piled into a
transit for the trip down to Margate with our tour manager Mike Stone in the driving seat. The Queens Hotel turned out to be a pretty
good venue. There was a nice high stage which we much preferred over the low-slung platforms of some of the places we played. It
m eant that the crowd wasn’t totally swam ping us the whole tim e, although there would still be a constant stream of people jum ping on
and off stage, bumping us, knocking equipment over and so forth. We weren’t sure if many people would turn up on a cold and w indy
nightso close to Christmas,but it was a good turnout, and they were out for a good time too. There was none of the aggro stuff which
would become a problem later on at our shows. The actual gig was typical of a Lurkers show at that time, being fairly chaotic with a lot
of crowd "interaction". There is a recklessly fast version of ‘Pills’ on the recording, and I think we were playing ‘It’s Quiet Here’ for the
first time live. Howard was on good form too; it would be his birthday on Christmas Day. My favourite quip from him is toward s the end
of the show when he says "eat your heart out Hank Marvin" after one of my more eccentric Shadows guitar intros. Pete Stride.
