Buzzcocks/Stranglers - Emerald City, Cherry Hill NJ 1980/1981

Emerald City was a club in the Philadelphia suburb of Cherry Hill New Jersey. The club had many types of bands play there including Punk, Post-Punk and New Wave bands. Both of these shows are radio broadcasts and sound quality is very good, although the Buzzcocks show has a little tape hiss on it.

    This blog is great! I just downloaded about 15 things! I take it you are from Philly, as you have Sadistic Exploits, Ruin, Autistic Behavior, etc. I played in a band with the bass player of AB. If that's the case, I've probably been to a lot to the same shows as you.

    Very crude tapes, yes. We do have a Myspace page setup a while back. There's some tunes also from my first band, Dry Heave.

    Erwin, I've had a listen. All the songs sound really good. Plot Twist is a favorite. I didn't live in Philly from 1988 to 1990 so maybe that is why I missed the band.
