Well, I just found Steve Swindells' "Fresh Blood" on cassette for a dollar.
If you're considering checking this out, it doesn't really encapsulate any
era of HW. It's basically poppy rock w/slight tinges of punk. Some songs are
decent, some just medicocre. "Shot Down In The Night" is okay, but doesn't
come close to equalling the energy of HW's version on Live '79...and no
blanga.
