• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler

I saw them in the Cardiff Top Rank with Mott The Hoople (I think) about 40 years ago. They had a lot less hair then. It was during their skinhead period.
They were absolutely fantastic.

Edit . Sorry it was about 50 years ago. Old age eh. 🙄
 
Quite like a lot of the older Slade tracks, before they hit the glam rock era (although the Glam stuff is great too). This one is a belter.

I was chatting on Facebook last week to someone saying how time goes quicker the older you get.

Is he making a return visit to Porthcawl?

I may well have been there too if I remember correctly (which is by no means a given)
Definitely saw them there with Thin Lizzy at a similar time, maybe a year or two later.
