Two great songs on a brilliant tv show, can still remeber going to see them at glasgow barrowland way back in 83. They were something special then and still remain the same.
Shame they are not together anymore, reading hookys book at the mo, all about the hac. It's a good read.
I also remeber watching (and taping)the tube that day. The unusual thing about this choice of tracks is that Shellshock had just been released as a single that week. I went to watch them play at Newcastle Mayfair in '86 they opened with SOTN that night too. Brilliant.
cheers. Remember being so pissed off when the credits rolled barely into Broken Promice. If it had been U2 they'd have kept it rolling and shown the conclusion the next week too. Cahnts!
I remember watching and taping this ,then watching it over and over. Saw them live at Loughboro Students Uni in '86, they opened with this. Awesome track.

OMG I so agree with you. You do mean the Brotherhood album do you. I've got all 5 collectors editions and they are amazing.

State of the Nation sounds so much better live than on record

Oh man...I used to have this performance on a betamax video casette back in 86. Obviously it's long since been lost.
Been searching the net for years trying to find this, thanks so much for uploading it.
