It doesn't get much more iconic than this - band and venue. Fabulous. Its why Wilko is still alive. God wouldn't dare

I went to the gig in Edinburgh that year. Dr Feelgood had just become the darlings of the music press and had received rave reviews.
Maybe for just that once, the music press were right.

_ A picture of the Kursaal ballroom, taken from the stage. The cover of AC/DC's album, Let There Be Rock, was taken at the Kurssaal in 1977.

This is a picture of the Stage end of the Kursaal ballrooms, where the sound equipment would be taken in.
