TOM ROBINSON - Live at the El Mocambo (Jan. 1985) REPOST

TOM ROBINSON - Live at the El Mocambo (Jan. 2008)


Great little live set here! Yet another from the mighty CFNY, and the fabulous El Macombo! I never realized how many shows I have from there.


Didn't really know much about Tom Robinson back in the day, other than the usual (you know....HE'S GAY! ha ha ha). I think my buddy Alex bought the Power in the Darkness album, and after a few listens, we didn't care which way he "swung"......we just knew the album rocked. Full of spirit, conviction and some damn good songs (that stand up to this day!).


I truely think that he was one of those cats (yes, yet another one!) that if "people" (aka American Midwest) actually got to HEAR his songs, they would probably dug them. But you know how it goes.....especially way back in the day......."Glad to be Gay"??? I can hear the radio stations now "oh, that one is destined for the circle file"......sad.......


Anyhow, for those hipsters on the block......ENJOY!! Not too sure if this one is out and about, but I'm hoping the fans will sniff it out and dig it.


Very strong sound quality on this - likely a 9+. Again, another gem I had on the trusty Maxell 90 min. tape, and made into a CD this decade. Loving it......
