I saw them in the Cardiff Top Rank with Mott The Hoople (I think) about 40 years ago. They had a lot less hair then. It was during their skinhead period.
They were absolutely fantastic.

Edit . Sorry it was about 50 years ago. Old age eh. 🙄
 
Quite like a lot of the older Slade tracks, before they hit the glam rock era (although the Glam stuff is great too). This one is a belter.

I was chatting on Facebook last week to someone saying how time goes quicker the older you get.

Is he making a return visit to Porthcawl?

I may well have been there too if I remember correctly (which is by no means a given)
Definitely saw them there with Thin Lizzy at a similar time, maybe a year or two later.
