Trawling through the net the other day looking for some music, I re discovered Out Of Our Skulls by The Pirates. Cracking stuff. 70's pub rock at its best. Mick Green was a forgotton guitar genius and a big influence on matey in my avatar. Got find a copy of that album now.
There aint half been some clever bastards.

The studio album was such a disappointment and didn't showcase what they were about at all. They are still playing live with the same intensity as 30 odd years ago.
Loved the John Peel sessions...given me an idea for a thread
Just read this recent interview with Kirk, who speaks highly of Mick Jones' production. I agree he was quite innovative but can't agree it was the right sound for TOH at that time. He took a lot of the energy and passion out of their sound. On the other hand I loved what he did with Big Audio Dynamite not long afterwards, where the techniques worked a lot better with the samples, overdubs and drum machines.
The jam,dig the new breed . A collection of live tracks from concerts between 77 and 82.saw weller in Brighton December 2015,did ghosts had the audience in the palm of his hand totally mesmerising hairs standing on the back of your neck stuff.

Some great shouts in here. Iron Maiden Live after Death is a personal fave, as is No Sleep by Motorhead. Takes me back to me youth it does. Extra Terrestrial Live by Blue Oyster Cult is right up there in my view. Quite an underrated band in the scheme of things,and this is them at their peak. Still touring quite a bit around these parts, seemingly doing it for the love of it (can't be for money, as hardly anyone turns out to see them 😄)

recently bought the expanded edition of Van Morrison's It's Too Late to Stop Now. 3 more CDs worth of songs that weren't on the original album. F**king brilliant.

As much as I like Extra Terrestrial Live I'd take Some Enchanted Evening over it. The version of Astronomy is sublime. Always a better live band than studio imo.

Yes, I got the extended edition of "Too Late To Stop Now" it's a classic, and it's actually also a DVD which is worth getting - or reviewing illegally on YouTube.
Speaking of which, if you use YouTube, - have a look at the clips fro, "Who Put The M In Manchester" In particular see this link to "There Is A Light That Never Goes Out" with a brilliant ending when the band stop playing and walk off the stage one by one leaving the crowd going nuts at the end.

Descendents - Liveage! The Cure - Entreat
I still listen to Depeche Mode 101 on occasion, even if it's not great.
I'd go with Cure in Orange or Show before Entreat.

Good call re the Cult and Live At The Lyceum, Bluce. Was the first music VHS cassette music video reel thingy that I owned.
I realise that it's de rigueur to hate U2 and their music from the last 30 years but even so I'm still surprised there's not been one mention of Under A Blood Red Sky. A great live album and again I loved the VHS cassette music version. Great stuff for the early 80's, imo.
Jamie Stewart, The Cult's bassist back then, absolutely murders the bass on LatL. Really incredible, exhausting performance. Great stuff.
That U2 thing. Is that the Red Rocks one? I only ever saw three songs from that vid (Gloria, Sunday Blood Sunday and something else) but it was alright. Decent considering what a dreadful band they became.
