I loved Eddie and the Hot Rods back in the 70s and early 80s. They were fantstic live, and Life on the Line was a brilliant album.

Barrie Masters died suddenly today at the age of 63.

This is a stone cold classic.

Sad. Spoke to him at a gig in Kent 15 years ago and he seemed a bit shot to pieces....

Bought this when it came out.

Saw him earlier this year in a Hot Rods retrospective gig. Great performer but was clearly not that well☹

Remember seeing them at the Top Rank in 78 supported by Radio Stars and Squeeze (who were bottom of the bill).
