Slade

Guilty pleasure? Maybe. Loudest band I ever saw, opening for J. Geils Band and Frampton's Camel, at the Academy of Music at 3rd Ave. and 14th St. in Manhattan, 1973. Noo Yawk crowd fuckin' _hated_ 'em.







ADDENDUM: Perhaps the NYC crowd's response had something to do with the mirrored scratch plate on Noddy's Telecaster, which, when struck by the stage lights, was the visual equivalent of having a fork stuck in your eyes.
