Was reminding myself of something - that the first Stranglers live album (X-cert) was recorded mainly at the Roundhouse - so I wondered if the recordings might have come from or ended up on that. But my trawl through the web suggests that there's a lot of live recordings from that venue including a lot of official(ish) albums as well as boots - from the Pink Fairies and XRay Spex through to the Dresden Dolls. Suppose they must have had a fairly religious process of recording everyone that played at their venue. A bit like the people here with Peel shows I suppose...

>  looking forward to these, kevin, especially the 21/12/77 one, not just becuase I never heard it then, but also because, according to my script archive records from the BBC - and the memories of others her assembled (incl Bill from North Wales and John B) - the Stranglers at the Roundhouse set was actually broadcast on the night of the 27th, and kicked off the show which then concluded with the top 16 rundown of Peel's Festive 50 (sorry, 61) of that year. According to the tracklisting for your 21/12/77 tape, which is upon the wiki, those 3 stranglers tracks listed are actually from their first session. Anyway, all will become clear when I listen in shortly...
