THE CURE

artist: THE CURE (Crawley, West Sussex, ENGLAND)
venue:
location: Amsterdam, Paris, ??
date: 1979/1980
length: 80 minutes

HERE
A live set from Amsterdam, perhaps recorded in 1980. Quality here starts off pretty poor, but clears up a couple of minutes into the first track, though it stays rather tinny. I suspect this was initially recorded to cassette from a radio broadcast. Three early versions of tracks from PORNOGRAPHY follow, and then an oft traded French television performance from 1979 (which is clearly the real gem here - particularly Robert Smith's guitar wizardry in "Killing An Arab").
