If Music Could Talk

Grabbed from Dime. The encore supposedly includes Mick Jones. I haven't heard it yet to determine if I can hear any trace of him.

Notes:
Received in a trade aeons ago, I never managed to see the Rich Kids much to my eternal regret but my enthusiasm remains undimmed. A short set (5 original songs, 3 covers and repeats) and I think That's Mick on the encore? I wasn't there but wish I had been.

I found the show posted on guitars101, and someone provided a photo they took of Mick performing at the gig.

Yep Mick played a few shows with the band early on. Lots of pics available of Mick in the band from the Brecknock gig.

Glen has a new book coming in October.

I've got one on order from Amazon. There's signed copies available from Rough Trade if that's your thing.

Also I'm pretty certain that's Jimmy Pursey on vocals on "Pretty Vacant".

I didn't notice it the first time I heard the show, but I agree that has to be Pursey on Pretty Vacant.
