Although Slade saw their biggest commercial success
between 1972 and 1974, this show, culled from the archives of promoter Bill
Graham, showed the Brit rockers were still red-hot as a live act in 1975.
This show was recorded in August of 1975 while Slade was touring to promote the soundtrack LP from their feature film “Flame”, which had been released to critical acclaim in their homeland. Many of the songs here are from that album, including "How Does It Feel?," widely regarded as the band's finest moment. The classic hits are represented too, including "Gudbye T'Jane," "Far Far Away" and "Mama Weer All Crazee Now," as well as long-time stage favorite "Just Want A Little Bit," which features the blistering bass of virtuoso Jimmy Lea.

Desi Slade au avut cel mai mare succes comercial intre
1972 si 1974, acest spectacol, selectat din arhivele promoter-ului Bill Graham,
arata ca rockerii britanici erau inca “verzi si in putere” ca in acest act pe viu
din 1975.
Acest spectacol a fost inregistrat in august 1975 in timp ce Slade era in turneu de promovare a muzicii filmului lor “Flame”, care a fost lansat in aclamatiile criticii acasa la ei. Multe dintre cantecele de aici sunt de pe acel album, inclusive “How Does It Feel?”, care e vazut peste tot in lume ca momentul de varf al trupei. Slagarele clasice sunt si ele reprezentate, incluzand “Gudbye T’Jane”, “Far Far Away” si “Mama Weer All Crazee Now”, la fel ca si de mult favorite in spectacole “Just Want a Little Bit”, care prezinta basul inflacarat al virtuosului Jimmy Lea.
