Slade - Slade Alive! LP Vinyl Record (Red With Black Splatter Coloured Vinyl)

Before the hits really starting coming, Slade showed why they were one of England's best live acts with this fevered concert recording from 1972. Set alight by plenty of stomping beats, lumbering bass, fat guitars, and Noddy Holder's hoarse vocal scream, "Slade Alive!" finds the lads from Wolverhampton goading on their rabid fans at every juncture ("Wan ya ta really let loose on iss one"). 

In return, the crowd's handclap choruses and drunken exhortations fire up the band, inspiring them to take pub rock to glam proportions ("In Like a Shot From My Gun"), make a fine mess out of a Steppenwolf classic ("Born to Be Wild"), and add a bit of feedback to John Sebastian's folk-pop ("Darling Be Home Soon"). Plus, hits like the MC5-esque "Know Who You Are" and retro-rocker "Get Down Get With It" are given proper live workouts.

Nearly four decades on from its release, "Slade Alive!" remains a classic. The insurgent rocking power of Jim Lea, Don Powell and Dave Hill, and the matchless roar of Noddy Holder, deliver original mission statements and scene-stealing recreations of vintage and contemporary classics.
