First vinyl reissue of Live At The Venue London by The Durutti Column, originally released in 1982. 180-gram LP. Includes CD. Digitally remastered from two different original sources for vinyl and CD for optimum sound quality. New artwork and design by Manchester-based graphic designer Trevor Johnson. Limited edition of 500. The show captured here covers work from the then-contemporary albums The Return of the Durutti Column (1980) and LC (1981), along with tracks that would later appear on Another Setting (1983) and Without Mercy (1984). At the time, the band were approached after the show by a well-known live recordings dealer, who was interested in putting out an album based on the desk mix he had acquired without any knowledge of the band. Intrigued, the group agreed to meet him at the location of his choice -- a Mayfair hotel -- where he arrived in his crème Rolls Royce. A deal was struck on a napkin to release only 4000 copies, with Vini Reilly having full control over the choice of Mark Warner's artwork. This reissue is the second in a series of five releases of rare or previously unreleased material from the band on the Durutti imprint.
