REVIEW:
First off, the complete Melbourne show ran 65 minutes and the full setlist was: Aneurysm, Drain You, School, Sliver, About A Girl, Come As You Are, Lithium, Breed, Polly, Lounge Act, In Bloom, Love Buzz, Smells Like Teen Spirit, Jam, Negative Creep, On a Plain, Blew. Secondly, while Small Clone touts this as a board recording, it's actually a well-known (and oft-booted) broadcast from Australia's Triple-J FM; the sonic giveaways are the crisp, superbly mixed sound quality, a few cuts between songs, and the vibe/tonal quality of the crowd noise and applause. As the entire show does not appear to have been broadcast, that accounts for it being a partial. There do exist audience tapes of the full show. Secondly, the Lincoln show is incomplete too, with the full setlist as: School, Floyd The Barber, Spank Thru, Scoff, Dive, About A Girl, Imodium, Big Cheese, Love Buzz, Here She Comes Now, Polly, Pay To Play, Been A Son, Stain, Negative Creep, Blew. The quality for this one is substantially lower (some obvious tape generation loss, plus in places the vocals - i.e., the tape -- almost sound slow), but still listenable; it appears to be a reasonably good board recording. It also features a cover of the Velvet Underground's "Here She Comes Now," for you trainspotters. Incidentally, this particular disc is almost a "clone" of a prior boot called Saturday Night Sonic Attack (no label) which had the Lincoln tracks (in better sound quality) appearing first. Given that you can find both shows in their entirety elsewhere as well, this gets the thumbs-down. Small Clone # SCNR 006
