CommentExcellent performance by Rose Tattoo on 2JJ-FM, Sydney, some time in June 1977. 2JJ was a government station, which has since gone national - hence the non editing out of swear words and references to oral sex! Great show, and one of the very earliest to have surfaced by the band. Angry sounds pretty relaxed, with friends of the band evidently in the studio audience, and three otherwise unknown songs are played - "Rock and Roll Eyes", "Roseanna" & "I love the Way you rock and roll". The sound quality is not quite as good as you would expect from an FM source nowadays, lacking a bit of presence and immediacy... but I'd give it 9/10. The announcer at the end announces the Stranglers' "Get a Grip on yourself" (released in April 1977) at the end, probably indicating that this version is sourced from an original broadcast. Marvellous stuff! Do yourself a favour...
