Saw this on tv at the time, thought it was a bit weak compared to studio version, funny seeing it now have better appreciation of the balls this band had- playing live when mist others faked and fauned their way through. Singer playing bass and turning in a great performance... Have power in the darkness burned into my brain, I remembered every word and sound. Thanks for posting!!!
TRB - great band. It's a shame this live version didn't include the great guitar solo of Danny Custow that was brilliant on the single. Still excellent though. thanks for posting this gem.
Good comment Ivor662! Power in the darkness was a great album, and this was the best track. Other great tracks were, I'm alright Jack and up against the wall, brilliant stuff!!!
I think the Tom Robinson Band is the most underrated rock band I know of, and this is probably their most underrated song. Thanks so much for posting it.
