The broken beauty Slade, of Slade, is listened without delay, delay

Building on this principle, class background bolosses splashed the world several times and, you know what, the projections are all on those disks.

Caution, do not fool yourself if mixture In my area all at that price, you need this double CD that includes ... ... which includes (excuse me, it is the emotion and the eruption lacrimal that make my keyboard sliding), which groups I was writing, concerts "Slade Alive" in 1971, but also the "Slade Alive 2" that allows us to hear many years later and tubes, in 1976 and 1977 .

But that's not all.

As is the norm with excessive Slade, the second CD offers us (the price, the price!) "Slade On Stage" from 1982, oddly placed before "Alive At Reading", 1982.

But that's not all: the whole is remastered (on the cake).

Follow me, I make you visit this squat.

"Slade Alive!".

By the time they recorded "Slade Alive!" in March 1972, the group has finally achieve success with "Coz I Luv You" and "Look Wot You Dun" ("Mama Weer All Crazee Now" will soon drive the point).

Of course, armed with her shoes and have compensated concrete pipes, Slade will carefully remove them from the play-list of the concert.

But they play it then?

It begins with a cover of "Hear me calling" Alvin Lee they return home as the security is Kolossal, while remaining fairly blues. We realize that finally, Dave Hill can play more than one note.

They enchainent on "like In A Shot From My Gun" which is pure Slade strikes with the foot, fat guitars as a joke Bigard, Noddy Holder singing that far from being under threat of extinction sets fire to room and harangue the crowd whose apparent condition as to suggest its total disagreement with the precepts of temperance leagues. Otherwise, for the record and for (the?) Fan (s) of Southern music, Blackfoot is a fan of this release.

Then tank with "Darling Be Home Soon". A ballad.
Hey, wait, do not run away! It's a ballad at the Slade, ie (pork) epic.
At first, we must admit that we are surprised that moment good taste of resuming the John Sebastian (Lovin Spoonful when he will have his statue in the Pantheon of Pop?). Rest assured that only lasts until Holder rote (it seems accidentally) in the microwave! Total romanticism. When I tell you that this ride used to sleep it off ...

To be forgiven, Slade enquille furious "Know Who You Are", "Keep On Rocking" and "Get Down and Get With It"; As some spectators ... poivr seem to hold still standing, completes the Slade mercilessly with his cover of "Born To Be Wild" of Steppenwolf (John Kay of regret having crossed the Wall).

It is plain (I'm not even sure they know what an overdub), it's Slade is the Glam rock with sweat. This is happiness.
The always funny Ritchie Blackmore has defined this group: "It's a good group because they do not care notes and there is an audience for it Another group might be too inhibited to do what they. do. "
You surprise me!
With this record, we are at the "Get Yer Ya Ya's Out" or "Made in Japan" but 45 ° version (west).

Intermission.
Pipi, strains, caresses the cat, kiss Mrs. (or the reverse).
Driiing.

Was repeated with the unknown "Alive 2" in 1978.

Slade has definitely become Glam, with all the restraint that they are able (ridiculous hairstyles, platform shoes leaving the Twin towers far below, glitter ...) and now have tubes with which they go clubbing room (well the rooms SINCE This is unlike the first completely played Comand Theatre Studio London-where I would not have liked to be housekeeping, denregistrements made in the US and UK tours in 1976 and 1977).

I will not detail because the statement of "Mama Weer All Crazee Now", "Gudbuy T'Jane", "Cum Feel The Noize", I'm sure you've already started head banging and (h) air Guitar.

But the interest of this double album is not exhausted, for this is the second CD that you will sniff Atoll (yes, Shuffle is well equipped), Marantz will make you or you will return to Kardon.

Alive At Reading "(80)

"Such a long song, a song so loudly,
For a dreadful masquerade,
A song to wake the dead. "

Look no traces of Oscar Wilde or walk in and around this Reading.
The venue in 1980, is devoted to the concert surprise Slade.

This Aug. 24, the crowd of pigeons waiting Ozzy Osborne.
That does not come.
Panic on board and Slade comes on the lifting platform shoe.
A priori, the environment is not favorable to them, the poster with the past and the future of the genre: Gillian, Whitesnake, Iron Maiden, Def Leppard ...

Yet Slade, peeled, mangy, the has-been, will all eat in less than a 1/4 hour (it was a EP) by showing what the Status Quo boogie (" When I'm Dancin ', I Is not Fightin' ") standing out" Born To be Wild "naphthalene and remembering their old box can still chain them again by coupling the" Something Else "Eddie Cochran in "Pistol Packin 'Mama" originally sung by Bing Crosby ... or the Andrews Sisters, all concluded with their "Keep A Rollin'".

The crowd are now subject and as we are in August, Slade and then naturally plays a Christmas song vitamin ("Merry Christmas Everybody"), before leaving the place after a final fire devastated groove with "Okey Cockey" and " Get Down and Get whith It. "

Rideau, they treat the dead, the injured are buried.
....
.....

And "Slade On Stage"? you tell me.

Ah yes, that one.
Well, since you insist.

We meet one year later in Newcastle.
Forts from Reading flashback, and 2 new albums, Slade decided to release a final Live.
This concert will enable them to demonstrate that they have not lost the gift of composing hymns to c.
"Rock and Roll Preacher," "Look Up Your Daughters", "We'll Bring The House Down" are built on stage without alignment concern, alongside their classic "When I'm Dancin'I Is not Fightin '"," Take Me Bak' Ome "," Gudbuy T'Jane "and" Mama Weer All Crazee Now ".

Happiness is not complete (we are in Newcastle) if they do not decide to close the set by the Liverpool FC anthem "You Never Walk Alone!" what red fall.

Yet ...
Yet something has broken that night.

Legend has it that Slade had originally envisaged, recording a double live album ... but only half of the tracks was botched by the shouts and the words "raw" from a viewer too close microphones atmosphere.

Slade frightened by this kind of detail? It was definitely time to stop.

But gentlemen, thank you for everything.

As is often said in his Ecce.Om schizophrenia crises: when I hear ELP I reach for my Slade.

With this record, it was 4 shots ahead.
