weirdly this is not on Youtube but I got it from Dimeadozen - live at the Alabama-Halle, Munich. Nov 11 1985? is that the one?
That's exactly it! There was a whole series of gigs that got shown from that venue in a prime time evening slot on the main regional TV station. Prefab sprout, the Cult, jazz butcher, the icicle works...

It's not often that an artist gets to do a Bowie by consciously carving their personal epitaph into the grooves of their final LP. The Highest In The Land is that rarity of an album, and it could not have been made by a more brilliantly poetic and fearlessly sarcastic writer than Pat Fish, also known as The Jazz Butcher.

RIP Pat
This album is much better than "Last of the Gentleman Adventurers", it feels looser and lyrically stronger. Some very close-to-the-bone songs like "Time", "Running On Fumes" and "Never Give Up". Or maybe I'm just sad that he's gone and this gets the benefit of the doubt.
