This 19 track release is a recut of the previously released live concert recorded at Paddington Town Hall (Sydney Australia) in December 1977 onto 16 track tape just prior to the band's departure for the UK to promote the Sire release of their Radios Appear album. This live recording has been mixed from master tapes that have languished forgotten for decades. The result is a totally wild and raw release that captures the band's true primal energy perhaps in a way that other recordings haven't.
The songs represent a wide selection of their originals along with covers of Blue Oyster Cult, MC5 and Bo Diddley.
