Be-Bop Deluxe at Aylesbury
Charles Shaar Murray, NME, 9 August 1975
THE FIRST THING that hits you when you see Be-Bop Deluxe in their current incarnation (or, for that matter, listen to said incarnation's Futurama album on the highly deserving and impeccably integrity-loaded Harvest label) is that they're about 400% better than they used to be.
