The Tames live and practise material is excellent, even if the audience was underwhelmed. If I remember correctly this night also saw Wild West's only foray to Newscastle backed up by The Limp and Pel Mel as well. The You Peghead You songs are the only existing recordings of the band that I know of. In fact, this performance may well have been the only time they played. The M&D recordings are pretty good although I think the FatBoy sessions are a bit uninteresting. The Fish Shop Baby tracks are all that they ever did and, even though all of the DTF material is available as a properly released CD, I de-clicked my nasty old single anyway.
