(3 out of 5 stars)
"Unreleased live album recorded in November 1983 in Eindhoven Holland at the Dynamo Club - featuring the Court In The Act album line-up (Ross, Tippins, Ramsey, English and Taylor). This concert was mixed straight to 2-track stereo.
Those expecting super high fidelity will be disappointed; however if you are a big fan of Court In The Act - then this live album will bring back fond memories. I would say the sound on this official release is a little bit better than most boots I've heard. Although the concert has some "glitches" the energy is there! Incredibly, guitarist Steve Ramsey played the concert with 3 broken fingers (from an accident which left Steve's right hand in plaster) - damn good job, if I may say! The original flailing twin guitar leads remain intact. Razor sharp riffing and innovative finger tapping (listen to the guitar break in Break Free for example) along with a tight rhythm section made Satan very innovative and ahead of their NWOBHM time frame.
The CD also includes as 2 bonus tracks the band's ultra rare debut 7" Guardian Records single: Kiss Of Death / Heads Will Roll (with original singer ... Trev Robinson)."
