GREENSLADE are a much loved (and missed) progressive band who in 2012 will celebrate their 40 year formation with possibly a return to live performances. The band made its live debut at The Marquee, London in late 1972. Dave Greenslade and Tony Reeves had been original members of COLOSSEUM. They were joined by Dave Lawson who had been in The ALAN BOWN SET and Andrew McCulloch from KING CRIMSON. To remind us what a great live band they were we release the only available live performances from the classic years of 1973 to 1975.The first 4 tracks of this live album were recorded just after the release of "Greenslade" and the 1975 tracks were recorded after the band’s third album "Spyglass Guest" and the two versions of "Sundance" bear witness to the changes as the band had gained experience and strength touring (the first version contains the original concept however)
