Boomtown Rats Oxford Road Show BBC Manchester Autumn 1984
Permalink  
 


Hi back in 1984 the Rats gave a very good performance on the  Oxford Road Show from Manchester performing Tonight as their new single and possibly two other tracks from In The Long Grass. This was before BG's "new found " fame as world saviour. I Dont have one but it would be  good if someone somewhere had a copy of this show to post on youtube as the band were living on their wits at the time with only good music to save them and came up with the goods (as per usual!)

Good news laibach- now all you need to do is the digital remastering and produce a 1080p high def version for us all! Cheers.

You must catalogue it Derek and see does it contain any ultra - rare goodies like live on Danish tv appearances or did the Rats ever play in Denmark in the glory years?

          I don't know you but always presumed you were a native Danish person - I'm fairly new to this forum hence my ignorance! There's lots of stuff on Youtube which is great, otherwise it would remain in various archives probably rarely seen. Let us know if there is anything you think dedicated fans may not have seen if you get the chance to view the tapes - regards, NOEL.
