2 more of Patrick's collection of essential M-Squared recordings. The
Systematics demos are, simply, fantastic. Lots of great songs (including
things like Suicide Beach which were never released officially), played
very well indeed and sounding as clean and fresh as you could ever want.
The Splendid Mess recording is, as expected, messier with improvisations
and half-baked songs in abundance but still shows the humour and welcome
experimentation that they always showed.
