For the Mary Chain diehards, probably THE BEST ever bootleg on vinyl! And quite rare as I checked on the net. I found many requests, many questions but very little information about it. Allegedly a 'Live at Westminster Abbey' recording but as I far as I know actually from a mini Creation Records tour of 1984. Anyway, I'm a big Mary Chain fan but not as huge to know such details, so if there's something wrong here, please advice. No track-list printed on the beautiful psych-punk sleeves or the labels, but it's almost sure that contains recordings from two (still unknown) different venues. Overall, a brilliant sounding boot (with an even better rip courtesy of Jean Philippe as usual!), from the classic line up (I assume) of Reid/Reid/Hart and Gillespie with great guitar mix and well chosen covers ("Barracuda", "Ambition", "Vegetable Man") alongside classic now toons. Early Chain at its most chaotic and fuzziest! Dig now, thank us later!

ReplyDeleteThanks, great to hear some early live stuff with good sound quality. Some of the tracks sound like a proper drum kit is being used (eg. 'Ambition') as you can hear hi-hat and I think a kick drum. As far as I'm aware Gillespie only used a floor tom and snare (not even any cymbals) so I'm guessing the drummer must be Murray Dalglish on some of the tracks. He left the band in September 1984 to be replaced by Gillespie.
