Lou was just over half way through his spring tour of Europe, ostensibly to promote his new Arista Records lp "Rock And Roll Heart". In typical fashion, he only plays 2 songs from that lp, and one of them is the minimalist "Banging On My Drum" - Lou's 2 min 32 sec paen to "drug masturbation". Arista were pushing Lou as the "Godfather of Punk", but Lou was streets ahead of the tame "punk movement" which the UK press was talking about.

This is a pretty mediocre recording. I'm not 100% sure that this is the correct track listing - there are breaks between some of the songs on my cassette. (It may not even be complete.) Sound quality seems to vary, song to song, and the louder sections are overloaded in places.
