Very good audience recording of show at the Kingfish Club, Baton Rouge, on 9 January 1978. The quality is very good for an audience tape, with clear and distortion-free sound, although a little bass-heavy. It is the longest set available from the ill-fated 1978 US tour, and a good, driving show. Some crowd heckling is evident, including, oddly, calls for "Stepping Stone", which wasn’t released till 1979. "Belsen was a Gas" is very touchingly dedicted to Malcolm MacLaren. Sid sounds out of tune when he is bothering to play notes, but Steve sounds pretty good throughout with the exception of the intro to "New York". The tape cuts after "Anarchy in the UK", perhaps from the taper saving tape before the encore, and after "Pretty vacant", perhaps for a tape flip. Previously bootlegged as “Spirit of '76” on CD, and "Psychotic Reaction" on LP. An excellent acquisition - much better than most Sex Pistols live bootlegs.
