Rockpile
Live At The Palladium
Rockpile were noted for their strong pub rock, rockabilly and power pop influences, and as a foundational influence on new wave; the band consisted of Dave Edmunds (vocals, guitar), Nick Lowe (vocals, bass guitar), Billy Bremner (vocals, guitar) and Terry Williams (drums). Rockpile recorded four studio albums, though only one (Seconds of Pleasure) was released under the Rockpile banner. Two other albums (Tracks on Wax 4 and Repeat When Necessary) were released as Dave Edmunds solo albums, and one more (Labour of Lust) was released as a Nick Lowe solo album. Rockpile were often at their best when playing live and Live at the Palladium amply demonstrates why they were so highly regarded. Released on LP, Live at the Palladium showcases the band at the top of its game.
