Circle Jerks

The Circle Jerks delivered an electrifying performance at On Broadway in San Francisco on February 10, 1984, right in the thick of their rise within the punk scene. By this time, they had just released their third studio album, 'Wonderful,' which came out in 1985; however, they were riding high on their previous work, 'Wild in the Streets,' which hit the shelves in 1982. This live recording captures the band during a vibrant phase, where their raw energy and socio-political commentary resonated deeply with audiences. Interestingly, while the 'Wonderful' album was still on the horizon, this performance showcases their knack for blending frenetic beats with thoughtful lyrics. The setlist features fan favorites like 'Moral Majority' and 'Leave Me Alone,' emphasizing their distinctive sound that solidified their legendary status in punk history.
