801 Spandau Ballet in Concert
First viewed : 14 February 1987
This one brings the "dole era" to an end; I watched this on the Saturday night, knowing I'd be starting work on the Monday.
This was a concert recording from the The Tube team , catching the band right at the end of their halcyon period, while they were touring their last successful album Through The Barricades . As readers of my other blogs will know , I was very disappointed by the band's shift away from electronic dance music after the first album and hadn't really been a fan since but some vestigial affection remained. That was rewarded as the band closed the set with a scintillating extended version of their debut single "To Cut A Long Story Short " which sent me to bed happy ( and a little apprehensive of course ).
