Label & Catalogue Number:
N/A
Origin:
German
Release Date:
1987
Format:
Single, picture disc LP
Source:
There have been claims that this was recorded live at Donauinsel Festival, Austria 12.9.86, but it is actually Hamburg, Grosse Freiheit 36, Germany, June 3rd 1986.
Sound Quality:
Average at best. Flat, tinny, some distortion. 'Fishing' slightly fades
out at the end of the first side
Notes:
This is actually a misspress of a Velvet Underground bootleg LP. The original
LP was issued by Death Records in Germany, 1987 (we are unsure when this
picture disc was re-issued). For some bizarre reason it features a PiL
recording from Germany 1986. Especially strange given that the PiL gig
has never received a bootleg LP release. The source is confirmed by Lydon
making reference to "the banks of the river Danube" during 'Low
Life'.
Packaging:
Picture disc. Velvet Underground graphics, and track listings. Correct
PiL track listing above.
Personnel:
Vox - John Lydon
Guitar - John McGeoch
Bass - Allan Dias
Keyboards - Lu Edmonds
Drums - Bruce Smith
Reviews:
Average audience recording. If you're gonna hunt this bootleg
down, you will obviously be a hardcore fan, so I suppose sound quality
or the actual gig will come second. |
