Level 42, Misty's Big Adventure and Elvis Costello & the Attractions

Level 42 in concert at the Fulcrum Centre in Slough in 1983, plus a session recorded by Misty's Big Adventure on this date (27th January) in 2005 and one from Elvis Costello & the Attractions (25/7/1997).
Since you put me down, it seems i've been very gloomy. You may laugh but pretty girls look right through me.

I think they mean 1977.

Yeah. No doubt.

I love that session. I certainly hope that this leads to an upgrade in sound quality, as all circulating sources that I've run across over the years have been pretty "thin" sounding. I think they run a bit fast, as well. They are quite listenable nonetheless, but a jump in fidelity would be most welcome.

Do they generally broadcast the entire sessions on this particular show?

Usually they broadcast one track from the session. This one seems to pop up every few months.

High Fidelity
Possession
B movie

Not "Stand Accused" but "Beaten to the Punch"
