This one track (Why Knock For You) on the Kelsey Lu album gave me strong Hugo Largo vibes:

THere wasa live set supporting David Byrne's Knee Plays or something that was broadcast on the BBC at the time.
May be around somewhere. THink it was at the iCA or the South Bank centre.

I saw them in the UK several times

nine months pass...

The new(-ish) album that Mimi did with Ben Neill is quite lovely. Includes this version of Ocean Rain

five months pass...

there... was nearly a third record? and a blog post in 2011 was hosting the soundboards for the 1991 knitting factory concerts where they played all the material?

18 May 1991 set

It's Unclear / Heads Or Tails / Simple / Hot Day / Waterfall / Heatwave / Lonely Fight / Reasons For The Beach / Turtle Song / Draw Me In

unlabeled songs on 12 April set

song 1 = Violets Violins Violence / song 2 = Heads Or Tails / song 4 = Hot Day

that original post still has a lot of stuff unaccounted for on either of these... Hahn shows up in the comments to confirm there were no studio recordings of this Tim-less lineup. these are definitely cassette audience recordings, for the hardcore only, but... of the new songs here, I like em

and I never knew REM covered 'Harpers'. there's a version on youtube from 1987. crazy to hear a thousand people applaud at the end.
