Review: NOW 12? 80s: 1983 - Part Two is a jam-packed for fans of extended mixes and 80s nostalgia. This 4CD set brings together 49 tracks, offering a mix of iconic hits and lesser-known gems, all in their extended or remixed forms. From Wham!'s energetic 'Wham Rap! (Enjoy What You Do?)' to the undeniable groove of New Order's 'Blue Monday', this compilation is filled with dancefloor-ready anthems. The set excels in its variety, mixing familiar chart-toppers like Spandau Ballet's 'Gold' and Lionel Richie's 'All Night Long' with deep cuts like Joe Jackson's atmospheric 'Steppin' Out' and Tracey Ullman's playful 'Breakaway'. Glamorous pop sits alongside punk-infused tunes, with bands like Public Image Limited and Echo & the Bunnymen adding a post-punk edge to the lineup. While the tracklist is dominated by pop and synth-heavy hits, the inclusion of disco classics like KC & The Sunshine Band's 'Give It Up' and Divine's 'Love Reaction' adds a touch of 80s dancefloor magic. This collection is a great snapshot of the era, featuring extended versions that give these songs even more room to shine. Affordable and well-curated, NOW 12? 80s: 1983 - Part Two is perfect for the fans of the deacde.

Tank Girl (Soundtrack) (30th Anniversary Edition) (gatefold neon coral vinyl LP)
Cat: RLGM 18761PMI. Rel: 13 Feb 25
Review: A box office flop at the time of its release in 1995 - only recouping around $6million of its $25million budget - Tank Girl has since become a cult classic of the post-apocalyptic science fiction canon. Popularised thanks to its strong feminist messages and vivid construction of a universe, the foundations of which were found in a comic book series of the same namer, the soundtrack is both of its time and every bit as high impact as the flick. From Bjork's moody and abrasive 'Army of Me', to the disrupted lo-fi rock & roll of Hole's 'Drown Soda', Ice T's typically snarling and sinister 'Big Gun', and the trip hop landmark 'Roads' by Portishead, the credits read like a who's who of 1990s cool. And this emphasises just how on point Tank Girl was, even if we didn't all seem ready to acknowledge it back then.

Review: The music of London's Blitz nightclub is celebrated with a new box-set curated by Rusty Egan, the man who, with Steve Strange, helped usher in a transition from the late 70s musical gloom into a glamorous, sonorous new 1980s. After their prior band, Rich Kids, disbanded in 1978, Egan and Strange saw through their enterprising excesses with a new venture, launching the Blitz club as a wine bar in Covent Garden. Bottling the unique, generic essence of the nightclub - at a time where the styles and sounds of David Bowie, Sade, Spandau Ballet, Boy George, Billy Idol, Ultravox, Visage, Marilyn and Gary Numan reigned supreme, yet were often not heard all in one physical place - this new reminiscence compilation brings both well-known and lesser-heard gems of the Blitz era to a fantastically fresh set of ears, proving that even you, too, can be a hero, just for one day.

Review: Reissued for the first time via Atlantic Records comes the official soundtrack to Twilight: New Moon, the second instalment in the Twilight film franchise, which is in turn based on the novel of the same name. With the OST component of the score again handled by Alexandre Desplat, and its curated remainder selected by music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas, New Moon is a compelling fusion of classical filmic orchestral music and brooding emo indie rock: the perfect combo to nail the affective headspace of both Edward and Jacob campers.

Come To My World: A Brief History Of Indie Pop 1985-2023 (limited sun yellow & crystal green vinyl 2xLP + booklet)
Cat: BN 11LPX. Rel: 07 Nov 24
Review: Come to My World, released by Two-Piers, is a fantastic look through the rich and often misunderstood history of Indie Pop. This compilation delves into the genre's evolution from its grassroots beginnings in the 1980s to the vibrant scene that thrives today. Indie Pop has always been more than just music; it's a subculture where fans cherish 7" B-sides, fanzines, and handmade record sleeves, forming a tight-knit community that values DIY ethics and underground charm. The compilation begins with groundbreaking acts like Talulah Gosh, The Flatmates, and Primal Scream, all of whom laid the foundation on labels such as Sarah Records and Creation. It then explores the influential C86 era, featuring more commercially successful bands like The Primitives and The Soup Dragons, before diving into the 1990s with the unsung brilliance of Heavenly and the burgeoning Scottish scene with BMX Bandits and The Vaselines. As the genre entered the 2000s, US bands like Dum Dum Girls and The Pains of Being Pure at Heart carried the torch, while across the Atlantic, groups like Joanna Gruesome and Veronica Falls kept the spirit alive. The compilation closes with the future of indie pop with rising stars like The Goon Sax and Ribbon Stage, proving that the genre's legacy remains vibrant. Pressed on a limited 'sunburst marvel' marbled & crystal green vinyl 2xLP, Come to My World is both a tribute to Indie Pop's past and a celebration of its enduring influence. It's an invitation to explore and embrace a world that has always thrived just beneath the mainstream's surface.

Review: Not just a clever name, then, this companion piece to the equally aptly-titled Nice Swan Introduces Volume 1 gives an overview of highlights from the exalted UK independent record label, based on releases between since spring 2022. Suffice to say, there have been many notable additions to the back catalogue in that time and the tracks have come as broad as they have thick and fast. As this incredibly varied collection proves, from the surreal antique balladry of Avice Caro ('End of the Day'), to the noise metal of 'Gmaps' by Cowboyy. Attempting to pick particular must hears isn't easy, or logical, then. But let's just say the raw garage rock 'n' roll twang of Shady Baby's 'Come to Life' and Splint's riff-happy '145' are definitely up there. As is the psychedelic-hued indie of Saloon Dion ('Hey Hey') and the Prima Queen's dreamy 'Chew My Cheeks'.

Falling between the cracks of punk, new wave and post-punk, these unfairly overlooked and forgotten to time gems came from a slew of DIY ethos purists inspired by the messaging of bands like The Desperate Bicycles, Sniffing Glue fanzine and early UK punk labels like Stiff, Chiswick and Rough Trade, recording everything in-house, then sending their recordings to the likes of John Peel and labels with hopes of some airplay or recognition, little of which came.

Review: You could probably buy every Soul Jazz compilation known to humankind and come out on top of most other people's record collections. As a label, the crew's ability to track down, rediscover, unearth, and reappraise archive music, and package things up as part of a spellbinding collection of like sounds, is remarkable, and the imprint must be up there with the best curated on the planet. The output is so good, in fact, that here we are pushing a reissue of the 2002 compilation, In The Beginning There Was Rhythm. Pieced together by Stuart Baker and Adrian Self, it's a wonderful trip into the deceptively varied world of UK post punk during its nascent, formative years. Informed by dub, psychedelia, punk, synth, samples and more, it's a celebration of a genre that proves you could spend all day listening and not really hear the same type of tune twice.

Secret Superstar Sounds: Scraping Bubblegum Off My Soul 1977-80: Punk Powerpop New Wave DIY (unmixed CD)
Cat: SJRCD 571. Rel: 13 Mar 25
Review: On the label's latest deep dive into the margins of underground music culture, Soul Jazz Records has decided to take us back to the late 1970s and Britain's DIY 'powerpop' movement - a self-contained micro-scene whose obscure and proudly independent artists mixed elements of punk with (as the extensive liner notes put it) "melodically beautiful 60s pop and garage sounds". On offer is a predictably impressive, 150-track selection of self-released songs from bands forgotten by all but the most obsessive powerpop nerds. Highlights include the gravelly, ten-ton riffs and bawled vocals of 'London' by Gobblinz, the proto indie-jangle-goes-punk strut of Xdreamysts' 'Right Way Home', the bass-heavy post-punk joy of The Monitors' 'Compulsory Fun' and the post-punk reggae/blue-eyed soul fusion of 'Cry Myself To Sleep' by Cosmic Romance.

The collection also dips into pure pop joy with Boney M's 'Ma Baker' and 'Daddy Cool', plus novelty classics like Meri Wilson's 'Telephone Man'. With this sprawling lineup, NOW Yearbook 1977 encapsulates a defining year, highlighting the era's eclectic sounds and celebrating legendary artists across rock, punk, disco and pop.

The Fault In Our Stars (Soundtrack) (gatefold "galaxy" heavyweight blue & white vinyl 2xLP + insert)
Cat: 075678 604126. Rel: 14 Nov 24
Review: Telling the story of a teenage girl battling thyroid cancer which has spread to her lungs, and the amputee osteosarcoma survivor she meets and falls in love with at the support group her mother encourages (forces) her to attend, suffice to say emotions run high in The Fault In Our Stars. A bonafide tearjerker, both in its original novel and subsequent 2014 movie form, anyone who wasn't expecting the score to the latter to be filled with huge rousing and heartrending indie pop was kidding themselves. Here we have it, then, opening on Ed Sheeran, into Jake Bugg, Kodaline, Lykki Li, M83, Ray Lamontagne and Charli XCX, the track list reads like a map of Gen Z coming of age with a few treats for millennials, and plays out like a radio station that lives up to the 'killer no filler' claim. Providing, that is, you're moved by stadium-sized balladry, sing-along chart dance and shoegaze-y electronica.

Cat: HWD 1588061. Rel: 25 Jul 24
Hugh Jackman, Keala Settle, Zac Efron, Zendaya & The Greatest Showman Ensemble - "The Greatest Show" (3:48)
Review: You don't need to have seen the summer blockbuster Deadpool & Wolverine to know exactly what it's like. Alarm bells began ringing years ago at Marvel over the decline of interest around a universe which, in cinematic terms at least, seems to have no limits or qualms about churning out product, no matter the quality. Things have got worse since, albeit with a few exceptions - like the Deadpool franchise. The wisecracking anti-hero's flicks go for a more adult jugular than many comic book adaptations, and therefore the character makes an ideal partner for the X-Men's blade-fingered menace, Wolverine. Together, they make an odd couple that were never going to be in a straight-up superhero talkie. Instead, it's tangible tongue-in-cheek at times, lighting paced, and delightfully self-aware stuff that needs a soundtrack running between over-cooked chart emo to classic croonerville, 1980s pop rock to rousing r&b. Here you go then.

Other highlights include Scottish legends - and pre-C86 indie label pioneers - Orange Juice and their banger 'Dying Day', which still sounds soulful and ahead of its time. The Field Mice give us a masterclass on vocal reverb with their shoegaze ripper 'Sensitive' and The Railway Children evoke The Smiths on 'Brighter'. This is a stellar collection that truly captures the best sounds of the 80s.

Review: The Twilight Saga: New Moon OST features a stellar lineup of indie and alternative artists. With contributions from Thom Yorke, Death Cab for Cutie, Grizzly Bear, Bon Iver, St. Vincent, and Muse, the album brings together a diverse and talented group of musicians. Thom Yorke's 'Hearing Damage' stands out with its jittery synth-rock, capturing the emotional intensity of the film. Grizzly Bear's collaboration with Victoria Legrand on 'Slow Life' and Bon Iver's duet with St. Vincent on 'Roslyn' add ethereal beauty to the soundtrack. Death Cab for Cutie's 'Meet Me on the Equinox' delivers a powerful anthem, while Lykke Li's 'Possibility' showcases her haunting vocal prowess. Even the more upbeat tracks like Hurricane Bells' 'Monsters' and Sea Wolf's 'The Violet Hour' bring a refreshing energy to the mix. The album encapsulates the melancholic and romantic themes of New Moon, making it an essential companion for fans of the series and indie music enthusiasts alike.

Review: NOW's ongoing 'Yearbook' series, which offers a wealth of hits from a specific year across four action-packed discs, moves on to 1977 - a year when disco and punk were on the rise. There's plenty of the former showcased here - think Chic, Candi Staton, Donna Summer, the Trammps, Thelma Houston and Marvin Gaye - as well as classic and blue-eyed soul from the likes of Boz Scaggs and the Drifters. Punk and alternative rock of the period are relatively well catered for too, thanks to hits from the Ramones, the Stranglers, The Jam and the Clash. Throw in a host of familiar mainstream pop and rock favourites, as well as a clutch of curiosities (Mike Oldfield's 'Portsmouth') and you have a faithfully expansive reflection of what British pop fans were listening to in 1977.

Keeping in mind their roots in the fertile crossovers of indie and dance music in the early 90s, the label maintains a keen instinct for fresh approaches in the club world, some of which are gathered here on this seventh entry in the Heavenly Remixes series. Pressed up on double 12", you can hear the likes of Hardway Bros and Horse Meat Disco bringing the fierce, disco-infused house they're best known for, while Shy One brings her maverick broken beat to The Orielles and mighty bleep hero Forgemasters make a welcome return remixing Todmorden's Working Men's Club.

It's a conceptual theme open to interpretation, but in practice that means a gorgeous, atmospheric and Bonfire Night-friendly mix of acoustic songs (Bo Harwood & John Casavettes), exotic Indian neo-classical music (Bhairavi Raman & Nanthesh Sivarajah), string-laden outsider pop (The King of Luxemburg), heady global beats (OG Jigg), lo-fi indie haziness (Klang), ghostly and dreamy trip-hop (Scala), psychedelic dream pop (Soft Location), and picturesque piano pieces (Delphine Dora).

Two Piers has bitten off perhaps more than any label, let alone singular compilation, could ever hope to chew with the rather challenging idea of compressing almost 40 years of indie pop history into an album. Albeit an expansive one. Nevertheless, Come To My World does a fantastic job directing a colourful montage of sounds that have defined and rethought the charts during the past few decades, pioneering bands that have contributed to the rich tapestry of sonic art that soundtracked births, deaths, marriages, falling in love, falling out of love, drunken nights in sticky-floored clubs, and solitary journeys home on rain-soaked streets - whether listening to a Walkman, Discman, MiniDisc player or digital music device.

Review: Under The Bridge was a compilation of work by artists who had, at some point or another, recorded on the cult imprint Sarah Records. It should already be on your radar. If not, we recommend digging for it. Now here's part two, a 2024 update which takes that idea much further, presenting a more expansive track list and platforming some brand new projects to boot. Timeless stuff comes thick and, quite often, pretty fast, with plenty of driving garage rock to feel propelled by. Old favourites are here, for example Even As We Speak and Secret Shine, Action Painting! and The Hit Parade. And there are also new groups, such as Michael Hiscock of The Field Mice leading an act called Gentle Spring, and a collaboration between Mark Tranmer and James Hackett, both usually of The Orchids (who also appear on here), but recording as Vetchinsky Settings. A feast, basically.

Review: The Saltburn soundtrack, released on red vinyl, is a great collection of tracks that capture the dark, humorous essence of Emerald Fennell's 2023 black comedy. This eclectic mix of songs enhances the film's twisted narrative. Side-1 opens with Bloc Party's 'This Modern Love,' a nod to the film's exploration of complicated relationships. Ladytron's 'Destroy Everything You Touch' and Cold War Kids' 'Hang Me Up To Dry' continue this theme of emotional turmoil. The infectious energy of Mason vs Princess Superstar's 'Perfect (Exceeder)' adds a pulse to the story's underlying tension. Side-2 is highlighted by Sophie Ellis-Bextor's 'Murder on the Dancefloor,' a playful yet sinister track that resonates with the film's dark humor. MGMT's 'Time To Pretend' and The Killers' iconic 'Mr Brightside' reflect the characters' hedonistic pursuits. The inclusion of the twisted 'Have a Cheeky Christmas' by The Cheeky Girls adds a bizarre, yet fitting, touch to this unusual collection. Encapsulates the film's edgy and eccentric atmosphere in the most ideal way.

Your Lungs & Your Tongues (clear vinyl LP + insert (indie exclusive))
Cat: NUM 817LPC2. Rel: 13 Mar 25
Review: Notoriously elusive, sophisti-thereal pop/post-punk collective Vazz answer to almost no-one. Emerging from the same late 70s/early 80s mutant formaldehyde mists that spawned This Mortal Coil and Crepuscule, yet bringing the dream pop sound to Glasgow, Hugh Small and Anna Howson are still going strong as a boutique bringing-together of mindful, magnetic musicians, pedigreed for the seemly discotheque. First released on Cathexis Records, we are indeed much cathected to both EPs in this collection. In sloshing but somehow still self-contained fashion, 'Your Final Word' swims in reverb nearly to the point of drowning its own harmonies, yet breathability is somehow still retained. 'Bleached White Skin' is the perfect storm of wavy wash, operatic doublings and ditzy drum machine, and 'Breath' brings spring-verb coldwave stylings to a languorous, pitchy closer. Then 'Feverpitch' and 'For A Reason' hear the compilation sprawl further into arpeggiating tumult, as we move on to material from the 1987 'Feverpitch' EP. This 40th anniversary edition collates both EPs and adds a handful of unissued minimal wave pearls.

Review: Returning to vinyl for a 40th-anniversary edition, the Glasgow duo's singular approach to post-punk and coldwave is sure find a larger fan base with its fantastic vintage sound. Originally released in 1986 and formed by Hugh Small and Anna Howson, Vazz carved out a distinctive space in the mid-80s. Their soundia fusion of skeletal electronics, atmospheric guitar and hushed yet striking vocalsimelds the austerity of coldwave with the melodic sensibility of synth-pop. Drum machines pulse beneath shimmering textures, while Howson's spectral delivery drifts through the mix, lending an eerie, romantic detachment. Key moments highlight their range: 'Your Final Word' bathes in cavernous reverb, 'Bleached White Skin' sways with layered vocals and murky waves and 'Breath' lingers in icy, stretched-out melancholia. More rhythmically urgent, 'Feverpitch' and 'For A Reason' build on cascading arpeggios and taut structures. Vazz's work has grown in stature over time, finding a home in the post-punk imagination for its ghostly charm and understated allure.

Earthling (gatefold translucent blue marbled vinyl LP + booklet)
Cat: 452543 0. Rel: 29 Jul 22
Review: It should take about two seconds to realise, if you didn't already know, that Eddie Vedder is the voice of Pearl Jam, one of the finest rock bands to come out of the US in the late stages of the 20th Century, and one of the outfit's four (yes, four) guitarists. Ranked by none other than Rolling Stone magazine as the seventh finest lead singer of all time, it's safe to say he's the kind of pedigree you want to venture out as a soloist.
Now four albums in his own name deep, Earthling may not be rewriting any rule books or pushing boundaries and our perception of what's possible, but it is an incredibly well conceived and executed heavy rock 'n' roll album, showcasing a man with seemingly infinite creative energy, here unleashing a combination of heartfelt alt, breakneck garage-grunge, and searing big room stuff that you'll struggle to forget after hearing just once. Songwriting and guitar work at their finest.

It is a collab between Vega and Ric Ocasek of The Cars and Ministry's Al Jourgenson. It never made any moves in the charts the likes but did end up being an album revered by fans.

Ultracopacetic (Loser Edition) (gatefold red vinyl 2xLP (indie exclusive))
Cat: SP 1640X. Rel: 15 Aug 24
Review: Velocity Girl's UltraCopacetic offers a revelatory reimagining of their 1993 debut Copacetic. Originally recorded with Bob Weston, the album's initial release left the band dissatisfied, feeling it lacked the lushness and clarity they envisioned. Fast forward to 2023, and the band has revisited the project with a fresh remix by Archie Moore, enhancing the album's original pop and shoegaze elements. The new mixes bring Sarah Shannon's soaring vocals, chiming guitars, and powerful rhythms into sharper focus, creating a cohesive and vibrant soundscape that aligns with the band's original 1992 vision. UltraCopacetic not only revises the original album but also includes expanded material from the era, such as tracks from various singles and a complete 1993 John Peel session. This reissue captures the energy and ambition Velocity Girl aimed for, offering fans a definitive version of their early work.

Review: Lou Reed, Sterling Morrison, John Cale, Doug Yule, Maureen Tucker and - a little later - Nico broke the mould with their efforts as The Velvet Underground. The Andy Warhol-managed and produced cult rock icons helped lay the foundations for New Wave and punk about a decade before either sound really started to make inroads in any circles, let alone commercial ones. And, listening back to any of their records now, the music itself isn't just a significant bookmark theoretically: it all still sounds incredible today.
Todd Haynes' highly recommendable documentary charts at least some of that story in a commendable way, more so when you consider it arrived around 50 years after the original lineup disbanded. Using interviews with surviving members Cale and Tucker, alongside archive footage, music and other material, it paints a vivid portrait of an equally vivid band. With tracks by them in question, Bo Diddley, The Primitives and The Diablos, this OST helps colour that picture, and era, properly.

Loaded (reissue) (hybrid SACD)
Cat: CAPA 034SA. Rel: 19 Mar 25
Review: The Velvet Underground's Loaded, a pivotal rock record from 1970, returns in a meticulously remastered SACD format. The album marked the band's bid for mainstream success, with label head Ahmet Ertegun pushing Lou Reed to deliver a record "loaded with hits". The result was a shimmering rock collection, though one far removed from the group's avant-garde roots. Though Reed left the band before its release, Loaded still shines as a masterclass in rock archetypes. Tracks like 'Sweet Jane' and 'Rock & Roll' cemented their status as proto-punk pioneers, while the sunny cynicism of 'Who Loves the Sun' and the rollicking 'Head Held High' showcased the band's sardonic wit. With Doug Yule taking on a leading roleisinging four tracks and playing much of the instrumentationiand Maureen Tucker absent on maternity leave, the album stands as both a departure from and a reflection of their earlier works. A near-perfect rock album, yet its polished production and radio-friendly leanings make it an outlier in the Velvet Underground canon. The SACD reissue offers audiophiles the ideal digital experience, capturing the tension between pop ambition and artistic identity that defines this bittersweet swan song. Everyone should own a copy of this magnificent album.

Review: Loaded is The Velvet Underground's second-most lauded album, after their scratch-n-sniffable debut LP. Among other things, it's also a cornerstone in the genre of extremely literal rock album covers, depicting a velvet red smoke wafting from an underground railway station. The album's title was an allusion to the fact that it was intended to be an appealing record, solely for radio play, hence it being 'Loaded' with hits. Glorious gems such as 'Sweet Jane' bound forward with TVU's usual euphemistic, ironic optimism, and this reissue is sure to nail the LP's full-bodied sound once more.

Review: Iconic rock outfit The Velvet Underground fronted by the super cool Lou Reed were pioneers of the form whose influence still looms large to this day. They're also the latest of many acts to get the Now Playing 'best of' treatment, featuring iconic songs such as the brilliant 'Sweet Jane' and more hard-hitting 'Rock and Roll', both of which get served up in their full-length versions. Overall this record which comes on a nice clear vinyl pressing, showcases the American band's signature blend of rock, folk and experimental sound and it sounds as relevant and rewarding as ever.

Review: Say what you will about the idea of a Best Of, sometimes it really does pay to have a good proportion of 'the hits' in one place. Now Playing might be based around a relatively obvious playlist if you've been a fan of the band longer than a couple of minutes, centring as it does on the group's late era classics, but when the late career classics are this good who the hell cares? Well, maybe Loaded and The Velvet Underground & Nico, original LPs that contribute the vast majority of what's here. Anthems like 'Sweet Jane', 'Who Loves the Sun', 'I'm Waiting For the Man', 'Femme Fatale' and 'I'll be Your Mirror' dominate here, and those presented as live recordings are particularly unmissable. Once again, then, here's proof of why Lou Reed, John Cale, Sterling Morrison, Angus MacLise, Moe Tucker and Nico remain among the most influential troupes of all time.

Review: In the summer of 1970, The Velvet Underground, now fronted by Lou Reed and Sterling Morrison, delivered Loaded, an album bursting with melody, emotion, and New York City's gritty essence. Despite personnel shiftsiDoug Yule replacing John Cale and Mo Tucker absent on maternity leaveithe band crafted what would become a rock classic. With Atlantic Records demanding hits, Loaded was a tongue-in-cheek nod to their drug-fueled reputation, yet the album is packed with catchy, proto-punk gems. Opening with the breezy 'Who Loves the Sun', the record transitions into the unforgettable 'Sweet Jane' and 'Rock & Roll', both essential rock anthems. These tracks encapsulate the blend of beauty and dissonance that defines The Velvets' soundia sweet, jangly exterior with darker undercurrents. Loaded has it all: heartfelt ballads like 'I Found A Reason' and 'New Age' and the explosive energy of 'Head Held High.' The record's final track, 'Oh Sweet Nuthin'', is a slow-building masterpiece with Sterling Morrison's sometimes overlooked guitar work on full display . While it's more accessible than previous albums, Loaded remains a definitive reflection of the band's gritty artistry and the spirit of NYC.

Live At Max's Kansas City (orchid & magenta vinyl 2xLP (indie exclusive))

Review: Years before anyone had ever heard of CBGB, Max's was *the* place in New York City to see cutting-edge rock acts (and mingle with Manhattan scenesters). Near the top of that list was The Velvet Underground, whose final show with bandleader Lou Reed (until a brief 90s reunion) is documented on the live album Live At Max's Kansas City. The quartet mixed such older favorites as 'I'll Be Your Mirror,' 'Femme Fatale' and 'I'm Waiting For The Man', with new songs like 'Sweet Jane' and 'New Age' from their soon-to-be-released Loaded, with plenty of venue atmosphere heard throughout (there is an audible conversation in which Jim Carroll hits up an audience member for pills). Rhino's Expanded & Remastered Edition of the seminal collection includes both sets performed by band that night in their entirety.

Review: Recorded in 1992 in London and New York, Voyager 1 is a unique live album by UK outfit The Verve-then known simply as Verve-that was cunningly designed to resemble a bootleg but was officially released to introduce the band to US audiences via Virgin's indie label Vernon Yard. It actually predates their debut album A Storm in Heaven, but the set captures the band's raw, psychedelic energy - we're well before the Britpop years, when Ashcroft and co were in a decidedly more sonically swampy, shoegaze groove - with standout versions of 'She's A Superstar,' the hypnotic early single 'Gravity Grave' and 'Slide Away.' Also included is 'South Pacific,' which remained unreleased in studio form for decades, proving to be a swirling, oceanic closer, faithfully remastered from analogue tapes at Abbey Road Studios.
