NOTES

Various stories circulate about just how official this item is... this is Henry Weld's account, which seems to be the most reliable source so far: "Originally suggested (half-jokingly) by Moore to be put out as a 2x10" in gatefold, the band finally said `no'. Blast First went ahead anyway (Not was created by Blast First for official bootlegs (other releases by Big Black and Band Of Susans)) and when the band heard it was out it was withdrawn (ie all remaining copies were allowed to be sold). The official pressing was a numbered edition of 2000.

The first disc is taken from the October 30th, 1985 University of London show, with Steve on drums -- except "Blood on Brighton Beach" from November 8th, 1985 at Brighton Beach. Disc two is from April 28th, 1985 @ Hammersmith Palais in London, with Bert on drums.
"C.B." is an onstage intro/spiel by Claude Bessy (aka Kickface Boy of Slash magazine).
"Green Love" is "Green Light".
"Mad Groove" is a tape of Madonna's "Into the Groovey" played thru an amplified.
"Spahn Ranch Dance" is "Death Valley '69".
"Blood on Brighton Beach" is "Making the Nature Scene".
"Speed JAMC" is a tape of the Jesus and Mary Chain's "You Trip Me Up" sped up and played thru an amplifier or P.A.
"The Word (E.V.O.L.)" is "Flower".
"Killed & Kicked Off" is "Kill Yr Idols".
