GANG OF FOUR – three live sets (1980-1983)
Holy shit, I just found out that the CD edition of “Songs Of The Free” is now out-of-print and massively expensive if you wanna get it at places like Half.com or Amazon. Maybe that’ll be forthcoming soon —
Gang Of Four – Anthrax Marxists: Germany, February 1980 (ZIP file)
Gang Of Four – Hurrah’s, NYC, 12.31.80 (ZIP file)
Gang Of Four – “Call Me Up”, Old Grey Whistle Test, 1982 (MP3)
Gang Of Four – “Rockpalast”, Germany, 1983 (ZIP file)
Wow. Another amazing post. Many thanks.
Before I download all of these, were any of these the concerts that you had posted on post-punk junk?
I have been looking for it on CD for years – never seen it! After Entertainment, my favorite album.
I fervently implore you to post SONGS OF THE FREE!!! please, please, please. Great blogs by the way.
Eric, the Rockpalast and Hurrah’s songs were on PPJ. I don’t know about the OGWT track(s).
The Anthrax Martxists boot has a few wrong titles. (I found a website that verified this. Song 1, New Entertainment, is just a truncated version of 5-45 (or 5.45; I’ll let you choose the punctuation). Song 9, Part of This is really the otherwise unrecorded Blood Free. Song 7 isn’t Armalite (or Armatrite, as listed) Rifle. It is apparently otherwise unknown. It was suggested that it is an early version of History’s Bunk, but I just don’t hear it.
And I don’t even like Go4 that much. But, here you go.
What happened to the 2nd half of your Gang Of Four – “Rockpalastâ€, Germany, 1983 post? the full track listing should read:
01.We Live As We Dream, Alone
02.The Republic
03.Not Great Men
04.Why Theory
05.Arabic
06.I Will Be A Good Boy
07.The History Of The world
08.I Love A Man In Uniform
09.It Don’t Matter
10.Paralysed
11.What We All Want
12.Independence
13.To Hell With Poverty
14.He’d Send In The Army
15.Call Me Up
16.The World At Fault
17.At Home He’s A Tourist
18.Natural’s Not In It
19.Producer
20.Cheeseburger

and not just tracks 1 – 15 as in your download…
