Album Notes & Community Reviews

Originally intended for their fan club, this expansive double album became their first official live release, chronicling their bizarre evolution across the 1990s. The sequencing deliberately contrasts their abrasive, DAT-machine-backed early duo shows with the colossal, psychedelic jam-band structures of their late-decade five-piece ensemble. A legendary 26-minute version of 'Vallejo' stands as a centerpiece of their chaotic live prowess.
