That sounds like a good piece of advice after drinking beer, not a name!

Damn! I'm shocked by this. Delivering the Goods was never their best song but I would have thought it would appear in some sets over the last 38 years.

I guess it really does come down to the catalogue they have to choose from. But 38 years is a long time not to play a song which people do know. Given it was on Killing Machine it appears they played it for about 2 years and that was it.

I'd love to see the current band play Women In Uniform, but it's a cover and I don't think they do covers these days.

Non album single in 1980 and it was on the Aussie release of Killers in '81 and then re-released in 1990 as a part of the First Ten Years box set.
Its a cover of a song by an Aussie band named Skyhooks. No idea why they did it but there was rumours that Stratton and the producer who had also done AC/DC tampered with the masters which were heavier because they wanted a hit single. There was also some controversy around the cover art because like the single Sanctuary that depicted Maggie Thatcher on the ground after Eddie killed her, Women in Uniform depicted her about to attack Eddie. It's almost a before and after but in the wrong order.
FYI: Skyhooks were a brilliant theatrical act and their music was mostly brilliant but they weren't the sort of band too many metal heads liked.

I grew up with Skyhooks they are an acquired taste but their Living In The '70's album is brilliant. Some of their songs have very questionable lyrics especially the song Smut
