words lifted from elsewhere.

"Live at the prestigious ICA (Institute Of Contemporary Arts) in London. On the opening night of their annual 'Rock Week'. This would be UK Electro's one and only 'gig', featuring Broken Glass and topped off with another London break challenge, this time from a crew called the Zulu Rockers (following on from Sidewalk at Camden Palace the previous December). Lynden Barber summed it up in Melody Maker when he commented; "Whoever thought of presenting the team at the ICA should be both congratulated for breaking out of the usual 'rock gig' restrictions and castigated for trying to present what is in essence a studio music on stage".

This is the first British mix I've ever come across from 1984 -- and an absolutely excellent one at that! Love to see the REAL oldies on here ;)

Huge thanks again to 586.

Had this one a few years but only on real audio so cheers. :thumbsup:

Is it a kind of live perfomance of the Street Sounds UK Electro album?
