A great live performance.

I like the studio versions of the songs a little more, otherwise there’d be a lot more keepers.

Phil Manzanera-Diamond Head

I remember the day I bought this one. For weeks I had known of its existence and I knew I needed to have it, but the record store never got it in – or so I thought.

Albums were kept in bins sorted by artist with labeled white plastic separators, and I had been searching through the “M” section for it, which seemed prudent until the day I was looking through “Z”s and found today’s album in a bin labeled “Philman Zanera”.

Lesson learned: when dealing with the obscure, assume misunderstanding.

A great album by the way, with lots of good otherwise unavailable Eno and Robert Wyatt performances.
