All The World's Stage

In September BMG will issue "All The World Is A Stage", a new 5 CD box set of Slade live albums, including 3 previously unreleased shows. The trio of previously unreleased gigs is as follows.

"Live At The New Victoria" recorded on April 24th, 1975, captures the band before they went around the UK to promote their feature film, "In Flame".

"Live At The Hucknall Miner’s Welfare Club" recorded on June 26th, 1980, features songs from their new studio album at the time "We’ll Bring The House Down", along with classics "Take Me Bak ’Ome", "Gudbuy T’Jane", "Everyday" and the perennial "Merry Xmas Everybody".

"Alive! At Reading", the third unreleased full live set, captures the band delivering a sensational live performance to over 80 000 people in 1980. As last minute replacements for Ozzy Osbourne, their set was arguably the highlight of the festival and led to Slade enjoying a renaissance in the 80's. A 3 track EP was issued from this performance at the time.

Completing this box are "Slade Alive!", the classic 1972 live album and "Slade On Stage" which documents their December 18th, 1981, Newcastle City Hall show, the album was issued a year later in December 1982.

"All The World Is A Stage" comes in a clamshell box with a 16 page booklet. It will be released on September 9th, 2022, via BMG.
