The Tom Robinson Band: Lyceum, London
Harry Doherty, Melody Maker, 17 December 1977
IT WAS undoubtedly one of the best gigs I have seen this or any other year. The combination of two excellent bands, the Tom Robinson Band and No Dice, and a beautifully positive atmosphere made it a night that nobody will forget in a long, long time.
