A-10 - Demo/Live/Rehearsal 1987

A-10 were and international group from London that featured members from England, Australia, France and Italy. This is the line up with the original guitarist that released one single in 1987 after which he had to go back to Australia because his visa ran out. The band continued into the mid 1990s and released several records with different guitarists. Sadly, the singer, Lee Robinson, died a few years ago in Spain. The sound quality on the demo is very good. The live show was recorded from the audience and is good sound quality. The rehearsal was recorded with a cassette recorder and the sound quality is good, as well.
