Product details

  • This classic live album is re-issued. This gig was said to have been secretly recorded by Decca Records who had an office next door to the famous Moonlight club in Hampstead, London and then somehow made its way into the hands of the bootleggers
  • More recently Horace Panter in his excellent account of his time with the Specials, Ska'd for Life, has stated that although the entire set was recorded the track Longshot Kick the Bucket, which had been recently added to the bands set list, was scheduled to appear on a Live Moonlight club compilation, but for whatever reason the planned album failed to materialise. Whatever its origins there is no doubting that it captures the band in top form and is a great example of a sound that was to quickly take the nation by storm
  • Recorded on the day before the British general elections of may 1979, the gig is also of significance in that Chrysalis employee, Roy Eldridge, was one of the members of the audience. It was he who was instrumental in signing both the Specials and the whole 2 Tone apparatus to Chrysalis records. He impressed the Specials manager Rick Rogers by being genuinely enthusiastic about the band, not like others who were only interested in making money as quickly as possible and cared little for the music
