Notes

Dave had problems with his voice, resulting in a few songs being dropped.

Here is the diary entry by Jez Webb from Bong magazine issue #40:

Dave appears to be on the road to recovery. As the set progresses and as his voice doesn’t suffer, the band become more relaxed and the first show in Italy turns out to be a cracker.

Purity was the support act. Tim Simenon DJed before and after Purity's set.

Sources

  • Source 1 is a good audience recording, but it's unfortunately encoded as lossy MP3. "Just Can't Get Enough" is missing from this recording.
  • Source 2 is an average audience recording. It plays too fast, the left channel is louder than the right, and there's distortion overall. It's probably a cassette sourced audience recording. "Home" is missing about two thirds of the song, and "In Your Room" was not recorded due to the taper flipping the tape late.
