A first, and stunning, recording of the Manics in their full post-EMG wonder, live at the Shepherds Bush Empire in London.. Highlights include a rare 'Theme from MASH', which far outclasses the studio version, and 'Raindrops keep falling on my head', complete with trumpet solo from Sean. James solo spot is melancholia encapsulated, us usual, and ends as the amazing noise of 'Elvis Impersonator/Blackpool Pier' building in the vacuum. A superb set.
