The ending seemed abrupt but interesting to listen to Dave.

I attended a SLADE concert in British Columbia, Canada in June, 1976. I absolutely loved the show. They opened with Hear Me Calling. And they played Gudbuy t' Jane….the song that had brought them to my attention a couple years earlier. I was ecstatic. One of my favourite concerts of the many I have attended through the years.

Slade was the British equivalent to Kiss! If they'd have cracked America it would have been huge, The same thing happened to Queen the American audiences just didn't get it!

Love Slade , in the early 70’s they were like my football team followed the fanatically & still love them til this day . Just as an aside Johnny & Joey Ramone love Slade & have often cited them as a big influence

Slade are underrated, I know they're not, but they are, if you know what I mean.

That belch on Slade Alive ruins the album for me. I had to edit it out on the MP3. Stuff of legend though.

As I remember it Noddy's belch was part of Darling be home soon, a John Sebastion song.

Their 1975 Winterland show is up on youtube. Their arrival was greeted louder than their departure. Some stayed just to boo

The loudest concert I’ve ever been to was when Mountain was the headliner and Slade was the opening act at the Capital Theatre in Passaic New Jersey. I want to say 1974. Slade was a fun band to see.

A slightly abrupt end but nice to see Dave has not lost his energy. Amazing band.

Then I moved to the Netherlands in 1973 there was a SLADE concert on tv the day I got to my hotel and I became a fan for life.

Not a good combover, Dave. Stick to wearing a hat.

The Grateful Dead, should have been called The Awful Dead, as all they produced amounted to nothing more than hours of inept jamming.
Slade were popular because they could play and had strong songs.
Nice to see that Dave is going strong!

Great interview. Some good opinions on bands Stateside, a fair young Brian Johnson and Slade often played gigs together in clubs.
