Virgin Prunes

Guggi @ Ace Brixton

Im pretty sure this is Chris' tape and I have no idea how it came into my posession, its a live set from Brighton in 1981, and I can easily picture  him clutching that old school cassette recording brick to his chest as the chaos unfolded around him.
Theres a couple of tracks from the headline band (the Fall) and that places it as 21st October at the Regency.
I didnt go to this show, only time I saw them was at the Ace when they supported the Birthday Party and were filmed for the TV(thats where the photo is from). That performance was fairly staid so I never saw the confrontational and charged theatrics that made their name and maybe because of that didnt really accord them the same reverence as my peers at the time.
