"A top quality live recording of the Fall at their stunning, swaggering best. The band, had been given the chance to perform material that's related to the rest of the rock music family that is where tune, instruments and musicians melt into one. Mark E Smith of course, has no time for such frippery and exhibits his traditional disregard for the 'right' note from start to finish. Formed mainly from the Extricate and Frenz Experiment sets, this recording boasts an overwhelming reading from the 'MES Mad Epic' school. 'Hit The North' and an equally inspired take on The Monks' lost classic 'Black Monk Theme' which is a song so out there that it could have dropped from the claws of the same disturbing muse that grips Smith's shoulder. They top these off with the thoughtful traditional music arrangement that characterises 'And Therein', the traditionally deranged 'Carry Bag Man', the funky electronic paranoia of 'Telephone Thing' and the drugged-up squalor of 'Hillary'. The result is a hot and steaming slice from the only band in the world that's provided solid nourishment for the last two decades. Top Gig, Top Class."
