Costello & Nieve - Because It's A Lonely World (disc 3)

Post by cwr »

So, there are two live PFM b-sides that didn't make it onto the box set, "Tears At The Birthday Party" and "Such Unlikely Lovers."

"The Long Division" has never been played by C&N, only the 5 big Elvis & Burt shows in 1998.

And "The Sweetest Punch" (which was also played at all 5 Elvis & Burt shows) has only been played twice by C&N, once in Denmark and once in Sweden. I wonder why? Does anyone have a recording of either one of these shows?

I'm loving the box set so far on streaming. (I think my physical box set arrives sometime next week.)

Yes, there's a radio broadcast from Stockholm that includes "The Sweetest Punch" in excellent quality.

The Sweetest Punch was one of the highlights of the big Elvis & Burt show at the Festival Hall in London. Brilliant live - the bells, the bells!!!

Very annoying that the box set is delayed in the UK. How can they only let us know on the purported day of release? They must know earlier.

Irritating but I’m sure it will be worth it.

I have a live version of Sweetest Punch but the quality isn't great.
