Nik Turner and Alan Powell were sacked AFTER the Astounging tour
(15.09.76 - 05.10.76)

On the December 1976 tour only the following band members were on stage
- Dave Brock
- Simon King
- Robert Calvert
- Simon House
- Paul Rudolph

As far as I know only one tape exists from this period
(Southend, 11 Dec. 76)

Have a look on the BACK ON THE STREET sleeve (the single)
and you will notice that there are only 5 members on stage

btw: This pic is from the Bracknell gig (18.12.76)

cheers
Bernhard
