Slade Alive!

Slade Alive! was a live album released by Slade. The album was released on March 24, 1972, and reached No. 2 on the UK Charts. It has also been consistently voted as one of the all-time Top 10 greatest live albums ever released, mentioned in the same breath as “Live At Leeds” from The Who and “Live and Dangerous” from Thin Lizzy.

The album contains original songs, plus cover versions of songs by Ten Years After, The Lovin’ Spoonful, Bobby Marchan, and Steppenwolf.

In its original LP vinyl format, the album was issued in a gatefold sleeve which revealed a huge cartoon drawing on the inside. This drawing was the winning entry in a competition run the The Sun UK newspaper to design the album cover.
