Man - Live At The Padget Rooms Penarth (Remastered, 2xCD) (1972/2007) Lossless

Live at the Padget Rooms, Penarth is the sixth album by Man, released in September 1972. It was the band’s second live album, both performed by this four-piece line-up, although the line up had substantially changed before this album was released, as was acknowledged on the original LP sleeve.

The idea for a live album came from Andrew Lauder, United Artists’ A&R manager, following the success of Man’s contributions to the Greasy Truckers Party benefit album, recorded at the Roundhouse in February 1972. It was agreed to record the album on “home territory” in South Wales at the Paget Rooms, Penarth, a seaside resort at the south end of Cardiff Bay. The title was considered an oddity in Penarth at the time, because of the misspelling of Paget Rooms in the album's title, as can be seen in the photo of the venue in the CD re-release.
