A recording of this concert exists: mono audience cassette recording, bit noisy and toppy, but OK
Not entirely original to say, but I went to this concert – with my girlfriend and later wife. What a big influence the Steve McQueen album (LP as it was then and still is in the back bedroom somewhere) was and still is to a sadly smaller but inevitable degree I guess. Seems such a long time ago – hang on matey, it is pushing 30 years ago over half my life time. But still raises a moist eye when the SM corkers are played. Thank you Mr McAloon.
Salford University Students Union must have had some pull and foresight in those days – saw U2 and The Beat there too. My mate was really miffed when The Beat did ‘Stand Down Margaret’ and he had gone to the bar for a pint and missed it.
Thanks to whoever posted this recording – it’s a miracle it was recorded so well back then.
Hi Ian .. I also saw the Beat there but can you remember when it was ? It’s never listed on their gigography list?
Regards
Karl
I am pretty sure that Wendy wasn’t at this gig due to illness. There was an audible groan from the audience when we were told. Paddy just upped his game and we were treated to a masterclass. One of my favourite gigs ever.
Hi, I’m a Project Assistant at the University of Salford where I am currently researching the musical history of Maxwell Hall. I’ve just come across this post and would love to discuss further, please get in touch via e.hurst1@salford.ac.uk if interested, thanks!
