Be Bop Deluxe's 1976 Concert History

Be Bop Deluxe were formed in the early 1970s in Wakefield, England. Fronted by singer and virtuoso guitarist Bill Nelson, the band went through several albums changing their style of music, with Nelson using newly available technology to create unusual sounds and guitar effects. Be Bop Deluxe's sound ranges from the blues rock influenced early work of 'Axe Victim', to the more electronic based work of 'Drastic Plastic'.
