- BAD: Debut gig, London, 1985
Formed in 1984 by ex-Clash guitarist and singer Mick Jones (after having been sacked over differences about the musical direction the band should follow), Big Audio Dynamite were noted for their mixture of varying musical styles, incorporating punk, dance, hip hop, reggae, and funk. BAD’s one constant throughout frequent lineup changes and meandering musical direction was the vocals provided by Jones. This recording is from their debut gig in London at The Kentish Town Forum on 28th November, 1985.
