Description
The complete 23 track never before available 1982 concert from the Americana legends on their first international tour.
Americana music legends, The Blasters were recorded on their first international tour in May of 1982 at the Venue in London England. Six of those tracks were previously released on Slash Records as a 12-inch EP later that year. Four more tracks were uncovered and included on the Rhino/WB anthology "Testament" in 1997. As part of a new catalog deal for the Blasters recordings with Liberation Hall the label has uncovered thirteen more tracks to release the complete concert for the first time ever. The band is firing on all cylinders as they were taking off in London after Shakin Stevens version of the Dave Alvin-written "Marie Marie" hit the top 20 of the UK charts. It is quintessential listening and a magical music moment uncovered for any fan of the band.
