I was 11 when this came out. When I was 48 the band came to Albuquerque where I now live which was bizarre because very few acts ever come to Albuquerque! So when I saw Bazza walking across the bar I asked him for a photo, he obliged and spent the next few hours before their set, and a good chunk of time after, sitting with me and my wife chatting about everything from Bowie to thrift stores and charity shops! This video epitomizes what I saw in Bazza that night in that he genuinely loved what he did and truly adored his fans. I'm not too proud to admit that it still brings a small tear to my eye watching this knowing he's no longer with us to entertain those he loved so much.

I'm sure he had a good life (I hope) and bless him. Great being a teenager+ in the 1970's. Great music and change.

Saw these lads at Derby Kings Hall 1977 with Squeeze and Radio Stars. Thrilling gig for a callow 15 year old. Great energy and showmanship. Bitter sweet to see this - though it's clear the soul hadn't aged. RIP Mr Masters.

Uno de mis mejores conciertos, en el Pabellón de La Casilla de Bilbao ( creo que en 1979) junto a los Bishops y a los Stranglers; el grupo Cráter ( de Madrid) no pudo tocar porque Llan Llacks Burnel le rompió la nariz a uno de sus componentes. Me lo dijo Cipri de Barakaldo ( de los 091) en el mismo Pabellón, que él lo vio. Vino la ambulancia y se llevó a ese componente. Un fuerte recuerdo a Barry Máster, un conciertazo...durante una de las canciones se subió a una torre de bafles y de lanzó hasta el escenario. Descanse en paz: Viva el rock and roll. La mejor música del mundo.
