    Performance: Benjamin Zephaniah, Belinda Blanchard, Emile Sercombe, Take It

    Sat 9 Oct 1982 at 
    Adams Arms (London - Camden) (14)
    The second A&S show, and the first to feature the already-established Zephaniah. Also the first to feature Belinda Blanchard, who was destined to be something of an early A&S favourite; and Emile Sercombe, a member of the pre-A&S collective Worthless Words and another cornerstone of these early bills.
