The next instalment of the DFRC takes us to a hot and sweaty club in Hannover on a December evening.
The Holidays in Eden tour was an extensive one, running from May 1991 with the launch party at the Borderline in London, to the end of October 1992 in Baltimore, USA.
This great sounding and up-tempo show is taken from the last leg of the 1991 shows.
The band had been playing larger venues / theatres earlier in the tour, but for this leg, they moved to smaller venues to get more up close and personal. This was the band’s first visit to the Capitol, but they returned to it on every tour for the rest of the ‘90s.
As you can hear from the recording, the crowd are very enthusiastic and this results in a great show. When the leg started (in Utrecht), the band tweaked the setlist, changing the order, dropping some of the slower numbers, the acoustic section and bringing in some more crowd favourites, such as Warm Wet Circles.
It also includes a great version of the This Town trilogy including an extended The Rakes Progress with Ian’s thunderous drums.
This is the first time a show from this leg of the tour has been released. It is complete with all talking included. There are the odd bits of feedback, instruments being plugged in and h doing an inadvertent mic drop, so please bear that in mind when listening.
Also includes full pdf artwork should you wish to add the discs to your own FRC physical CD collection.
