This video was recorded at the first appearance of Phoenix Rising in the ‘Battle of the Bands’ competition held at the Top Rank in Sheffield in August 1982. This was one of the first outings for the newly gigging band and certainly their first live recording. This is rare video footage of the original Phoenix Rising line-up in action back then. The quality is poor but it gives a flavour of what they were about.
The tracks played in the set were Lonely Attack, Understanding, Phoenix Rising and See Ya Babe all of which can be found on the
‘Live Session’ recordings.
The live sound was mixed by Alan Bangert and the video recording made by Steve Atkinson.
The band line-up was Pete Bangert, Chris Hamilton, Jack Bunker, Danny Spencer
