NOTES

  • 68 minutes
  • It kicks off as a fairly good recording, apart from the vocals which are bit lost throughout. There is an odd noise which chunters away in the background in Mr Pharmacist and High Tension Line. Scanlon’s guitar tend to dominate the overall sound throughout the set.
  • The fifth date from the spring tour of Europe of which only three recordings of gigs exist. The recently released Shift-Work forms the bulk of the material in the set.

The first recorded captures of The Book of Lies, The War Against Intelligence, A Lot Of Wind, Edinburgh Man, Shift-Work and The Mixer , the latter in instrumental form. Also the second capture of You Haven’t Found It Yet but the first with vocals.

There is a violin led jig played before Mr Pharmacist.

Overall a very good performance
