Bruford Beelzebub ( Rock Goes To College, March 17th, 1979)

Bruford performing Beelzebub live for the BBC TV series Rock Goes To College in March 1979. The guy making the announcement was a nationally known British voice artist, BBC and pirate radio disc jockey and announcer called Pete Drummond. A man of some standing (a man who today would be called a celebrity, but we hadn t invented them in 1979) walking in to a College Rag Week crowd was likely to get a cream pie in his face, especially if we re talking national TV. It was one of this band s earliest gigs, and I was just trying to remember the music. You can Google it, but simply put in theological sources, predominantly Christian, Beelzebub is another name for Satan. He is known in demonology as one of the seven princes of Hell. A tricky guy, and at inception, a tricky piece of music to play The colour of this and the audio have been restored and I must say it looks and sounds great.
