CHINA CRISIS
Working With Fire & Steel Tour, Reading University, 1994
This post-punk turned synthpop Liverpudlian outfit made a
fair impact on charts around the world in the early to mid 80s. With plenty of
pop sensibilities, China Crisis delivered a smoother synthpop sound with the
inclusion of traditional instruments and arrangements.
‘Christian’ and ‘Wishful Thinking’ were my two favourite songs
by the band, but this show has plenty of other early material to commend it.
The sound quality is excellent and the CD comes with newly designed cover and disc art.
