Live Review from Underground 13:
Red Star Rising Fresh from a near sell out performance on the last ferry home to Yung Shue Wan, RSR arrive at Underground 13. Comprising Steve on fancy finger plucking duties, Hugh W (from Shockin Rockin Donkeys) on drums. Sound is fleshed out by upstanding Nude members Kevin and Mark on bass and more guitars. Started their set by announcing to the audience that it is John Peel Day! Playing post-mutant blues songs to songs with a Beefheartian edge of funk blues complete with grimaces from Steve, with interesting song titles such as “Disneyland meets Wanchai”. At times, their music moving into Quiksilver Messenger Service territory (remember Who Do you love?). John Peel would have approved.
