Friday Rock Show with Tommy Vance

[haze_harrison]

Here's a list of my FRS tapes.  
This is what you can expect in the coming months although I probably won't be doing the full concert shows as they are readily available as better quality bootleg downloads....
I'm just finishing 28/8/81 Atomic Rooster and Gary Boyle and then I'll try to do them chronologically

Nowadays, 99% of all shows that bill themselves as "Rock Shows", not just on national radio, but on local stations and internet stations too, have a playlist that's all thud and fuzz, with little or no imagination. Bah! Etc...
