About this release
Compilation mainly of live performances of bands who played at Reading Rock, Jazz and Blues festival in 1982.
Some recordings were from earlier festivals (Neither Whitesnake or UFO played Reading in 1982), some were from other gigs, and mysteriously, Marillion (who were the first band on), Terraplane and Chinatown (who were similarly waaaay down the bill) and Friday night headliners Budgie all appear twice.
This series never made it to volume two, but this is an interesting and unique portrait of the UK's second biggest rock festival (Glastonbury being the biggest) in 1982, the peak of the NWoBHM.
The featured Spider song is the classic "All The Time".
