Having been a teenager in the early 1980s, that album perfectly captures the atmosphere of the late Cold War era like nothing else - just like the cover, a picture of a moment frozen in time. For those of us who grew up with it, it's odd to think that now, the Berlin Wall has been down for longer than it was up... it seemed so permanent.
Full concert from the same year, which I just found -
"Take these three items, some WD-40, a vise grip, and a roll of duct tape. Any man worth his salt can fix almost any problem with this stuff alone." - Walt Kowalski
"Only two things are infinite - the universe, and human stupidity. And I'm not sure about the universe." - Albert Einstein

Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
Rain Dances era for me too, but then I'm a big Rich Sinclair fanboy. Slightly weird gig as they played as their own support band - Set 1 was the entirety of Moonmadness. Beat that, main act!
Main set was a mix of ICSYHFH / Rajaz / Dust and dreams / Stationary which is not so familiar to me. I lose it after Nude so it was great to hear new (to me) material played in all it's glory.
The real star turn was Pete Jones (keys/sax). Pete is blind and makes an interesting sight as Colin leads him on stage but when he takes his place nothing but magic flows from his corner. Astounding player, his sax playing was right up there with Mel Collins.
I really fancied going to see them this time, but the tickets were too much money for me - well, more than I would pay for a gig.
