Some fans were trying to get on stage but the footballers caught them and started kicking their heads in - Morrissey's shouting was at the footballers for beating up his fans, not at the fans themselves." This was when Moz really cared about his fans enough to fight for them.

It did finally come out on vinyl after being a holy grail bootleg...
A great performance from one of the top 10 best punk guitarists and possibly the best overall punk vocalist.
Yep...Bailey is that good in my world.

Interesting. One could say lots of (positive and negative) things about Moz, but I do think he still cares for his fans (show cancellations aside) given his recent comments.

I mean, what other pop star would write something like that?

I found that EC website when I was searching for info on those 1986 Broadway shows. There are actual links to FLAC downloads for a lot of these boots which is terrific! You can actually d/l the boot you reference here:

Skinny Puppy - Ain't It Dead Yet: This album and the accompanying video show the band at the top of their game and it was an amazing performance with amazing sound. Some of the songs on this are superior to their studio counterparts. The funny thing was they only got better from there until the point where the band fell apart and broke up (and someone died).

Not many albums like this, live or not. This just leaves you completely fucked after listening (if you can endure the full Cd in one sitting). Complete nihilism. A draining experience to put it mildly.
Christian Death - Decomposition of Violets
The perfect middle ground between Only Theatre and the Rozz/Valor masterpieces "Catastrophe Ballet" and "Ashes". All the greatest (im my opinion anyway) from the mighty trifecta. The re-worked version of Only Theatre (he song) trumps the LP version. Same with Cervix Couch, which is loaded with atmosphere to spare. When i'm in the mood for Xian Death, this is the one i usually reach for.
Agnostic Front live at CBGB
Best recordings of the best songs. A must have for any HC fan.
Maiden Japan - full set
see description for AF
Night of the Living Dead Boys
sets from Screamers 2xCD
Joy Division - Live in Amsterdam 1980 (perfection)
JP - Unleashed in the East
for startes
loys of live BBC and Peel stuff - Damned, Joy Division, Chelsea, NAPALM DEATH (best grind ever recorded), Carcass, Bolt Thrower, E.N.T. (their best stuff by MILES)...

patient_ot wrote:JG, pretty much all of TVZ's stuff from the 60s/70s is worth hearing. There is a cheapo boxset called Texas Troubadour that you can pick up for around $20 that has all his studio albums. However, I'm not sure how "legit" the release is in terms of making sure his estate gets paid (it's a UK release on Charly). I remember reading that his estate went through a legal battle to remove a lot of his catalog from the control of a few different labels. I do believe the releases on Fat Possum are legit though...
Re: the live album, a lot of people like that one because it's very stripped down and not as produced as the studio stuff.

That Swans album is one of the best they've ever done and gets my vote for the heaviest album that I've ever heard. I haven't heard that CD album, sounds interesting for sure. JD are one my favorite bands, but the live stuff I've heard isn't so hot in terms of sound.
Re: AF, that's a classic of course. Have you heard the unedited version of the album? It's worth checking out.
