Winterland Arena
2101 Sutter Street, San Francisco, California
U.S.A.
6th May 1973
(With Support Bands - Humble Pie, Steely Dan)
Track Listing
Here Me Calling
Move Over
Gudbuy T'Jane
Just A Little Bit
Keep On Rockin'
Mama Weer All Crazee Now
It's a rocky start for Slade on this summer '73 Winterland performance, but once the band hits their stride, everyone is up and on their feet. Noddy Holder wastes no time getting the crowd on his side, involving those assembled in a strange, syncopated grunt during a tribute to Janis Joplin "Move Over", and a shockingly accurate Pearl impersonation this hirsute Midlander does.
For Slade, it's all about getting the crowd riled up, and the band labors to wring every last ounce from every song like James Brown after three pints of strong ale and a sausage roll. All of it builds to a glorious climax on "Mama Weer All Crazee Now," a sentiment no doubt shared by anyone who's ever witnessed Slade's howling, banshee like vocals.
Though their records never made much of an impression stateside until Quiet Riot began covering their songs in the '80s, Slade were superstars throughout the rest of the world for their infectious songs and hilarious antics.
For all those that missed out the first time.... here they are.... Get Slayed.
My sound rating for this is 7/10
Audio playing time approximately 33 minutes.
