The Fall - Live To Air In Melbourne '82




















The good times just keep a coming.... The Fall, still the only band that matters.

"One of the various live documents that Cog Sinister started releasing in large amounts in the late '90s, Live to Air comes from a 1982 show. .. there is some odd packaging, with the two-disc set listed as having the main show on the first disc and the encore on the second. The song selection hits up plenty of the band's highlights from that period and earlier -- "Totally Wired," "Hip Priest," "Marquis Cha-Cha," and "Lie Dream of a Casino Soul" can be found here. The last gets an agreeably annoyed rant-through, with keyboards and guitar ending up with equal prominence in the mix. Other blasts of near-chaos include a full-on rumble through "Solicitor in the Studio," which sounds like it's about to blow down the walls of wherever the band is at, and a great rip through "The Classical." Somehow the muddy if trebly mix makes the bile of the song come out all the more, especially when the music drops back just a bit before the second verse. "Plenty of bloody microphones!" as Smith himself puts it. ~ Ned Raggett, All Music Guide "

The Fall, the only band that matters.

This is a bootleg-level release (supposedly given the OK by the Fall's former guitarist, Steve Hanley) of an August 1988 Fall concert in Edinburgh, Scotland, during which the Fall were accompanied by the Royal Dutch Ballet.
