First ever CD release for this incredible live concert from Ian Dury & The Blockheads at London’s Dominion Theatre on Christmas Eve 1980. Originally transmitted as a special TV performance for the ‘Old Grey Whistle Test’ on BBC2 TV and for John Peel on BBC Radio 1. This live album is exclusively partnered with a bonus second CD of long out of print live album ‘Live! Warts 'N' Audience....Plus!’ recorded at the Brixton Academy a decade later in December 1990 presented together in deluxe 2CD gatefold packaging.
Following on from the run of singles "Reasons to Be Cheerful, Part 3", "I Want to Be Straight" and "Sueperman's Big Sister" 1980 saw the release of new album ‘Laughter’ by Ian Dury & The Blockheads.
The ‘Laughter’ tour took place in December 1980 and on Christmas Eve Ian Dury & The Blockheads performed at London’s Dominion Theatre live on Radio 1 and on TV via BBC2’s ‘Old Grey Whistle Test’ – introduced on TV by Annie Nightingale and on radio by John Peel.
With The Blockheads now featuring former Dr Feelgood frontman, Wilko Johnson on guitar taking the place of the now departed Chaz Jankel the live show also features additional musicians Don Cherry (father of Neneh) and Topper Headon (The Clash) in addition to the Blockheads line up of lan Dury, Davey Payne, John Turnbull, Norman Watt-Roy, Mickey Gallagher and Charlie Charles.
Fast forward 10 years to a concert recorded at the Brixton Academy, London, 22 December 1990 and a line up that featured the returning Chaz Jankel along with amongst others Norman Watt-Roy, Johnny Turnbull, Mickey Gallagher and Davey Payne. This live concert long out of print has previously released as Live! Warts 'N' Audience....Plus!, Warts 'N' Audience (Live: 22 December 1990) and All The Best, Mate....
