This was a fully miked up rehearsal at M-Squared studios, recorded direct
to 8 track with rudimentary overdubs and mixing afterwards. It shows the
band on the cusp between their initial inner city electro-pop phase and
their 2nd glam-pop version. Some of the older tracks sound tired and
care-worn whilst the more recent material sounds half-formed (and, in the
case of 'Political Jokes', half baked). But the performances are uniformly
good and recording quality is excellent. I may have heard too much Ya Ya
material in the recent months to make any further judgement - I'll leave
that till later. However, it's still an important recording for many
reasons.
