Monday, 4 July, 1977 – The Vortex at Crackers, London , England 

There is no known recording of this gig

George Gimarc’s Punk Diary 1970-1979 reported : “Opening act The Fall are greeted with great indifference. Their music is aggressive but not as banal as some openers can be. It’s only The Fall’s sixth-ever gig. They got together in Manchester late last year and have a harsh, unschooled approach to music.”

Gimarc’s observation that this was the sixth gig is consistent with the NME article by Malcolm Heyhoe in early 1978.
