Riders on the Storm 3:27 3.2Mb Aside from re-recording the drums and adding a bit of atmospheric thunder this is exactly as played live in the studio. Some lovely keyboard playing by Andy.
Nice 'N' Sleazy 3:01 2.8Mb Can you tell that Calvin got a bass effects processor for his birthday that year?
Hush 3:34 3.3Mb Lots of effects and overdubs on this one - we had fun!

The following were recorded live at a gig in Sept 2000.
No re-recording or overdubs of any kind were used.

It Ain't Easy 3:29 3.2Mb Not an easy song to sing by any means, but Rob does us proud on the vocals.
She's Not There 3:02 2.8Mb Check out Jason's drumming on this one.
She's Not There (video) 0:08 794Kb As a special treat you can see 2-Sheds Jackson playing live during this very recording.The short MPEG, complete with the actual out front sound was filmed by Marie Guillou. OK, so we should have called this page "Look and Listen", but then it would have sounded a bit too much like a public information film on how to cross the road.
Remedy 6:35 6.0Mb This has a cracking "groove" during the solos with Calvin playing some majorly funky bass. In fact we all got to do solos on this which explains why it is so long.
Another Girl Another Planet 3:33 3.2Mb A veritable anthem - Kenny plays some especially wicked guitar on this one..
Honky Tonk Woman 4:00 3.7Mb An old favourite - Jason even bought a cow bell to give it that authentic ring.
Nice 'N' Sleazy 3:00 2.7Mb One of Calvin's favourites (and not just because of the excessive amount of bass playing involved - honest).
Hush 3:23 3.3Mb This one is our usual set opener. A classic!
Love Me Two Times 2:51 2.6Mb At last! People finally cheered on the false stops and it got recorded!
Jumpin' Jack Flash 3:32 3.1Mb You can't beat an old Stones tune, can you?
Itinerant Child 4:55 4.5Mb A funky little number about the great British tradition of tolerant policing. Listen to Andy getting his chopper out in the middle (cheap knob gag).
See Emily Play 3:06 2.9Mb This was a new addition to the set. OK, so occasionally the backing vocals go a bit awry, but here it is anyway. This is us "warts and all". Most of it is pretty good though.
Riders on The Storm 3:30 3.5Mb We love playing this song and we like to think that we do it rather well.

 

The following short MPEGs are from our final gig in July 2001
