Another brilliant performance from probally the most underrated band of the past 45 years (others of the stable have stood still, kept on churning out the old stuff and not developed) - they keep on moving, morphing and motivating - catch them live, buy their vinyl wear their merch with pride

What a great show. Two sets covering the band’s 40 plus year career. Superb musicianship as ever. The mix of new younger members and the three originals is a delight.
