NOTES

1hour 11minutes

Officially released as Disc 3 of “Touch Sensitive The Bootleg Box Set” – appears to be an audience recording albeit of very good quality

A good capture of the third gig of this new line-up of the gruppe – some teething problems with the new line-up are still being ironed out – but generally this an altogether more punchy/garagey/muscular version of The Fall built around the Watts/Birtwistle rhythm secton. Emerging version and first known performance of Ibis-Afro Man. Only performance of Das Katerer which is a sort of mash up of Free Range and The Caterer

The group leave the stage after “Ketamine Sun” – the DAT tape of “Midwatch 1953” is played – the band returns and Spen picks up the beat and then there is mutant live version of “Midwatch”. Where noted above the DAT plays the tune whilst the gruppe are “off-stage” and these have not been counted in the live track database.

An entertaining gig.
