about

The Fall live at Sheffield Polytechnic (The Nelson Mandela Building) on 26/03/1992. The tour followed the release of the "Code: Selfish" album.
Support should have been Levitation but they had been kicked off the tour after just 3 dates by Mark E. Smith, with whom an argument backstage in Leicester escalated into a challenge that they fight him. They declined and Smith allegedly told them they "might as well pack their bags and f--- off then". ( Further info - see NME clipping in the gigography section of the excellent website thefall.org )

Mark E. Smith - vocals
Steve Hanley - bass
Craig Scanlon - guitar
Simon Wolstencroft - drums
Dave Bush - keyboards

A work of considerable power and subtlety. Certainly a grower but I was hooked on first listen and it seems to improve on subsequent plays. Well done to everyone involved and good luck for the future, hopefully a long and successful future. simon1956smith

Absolutely LOVE this album. It's SO great to hear these legends energized and busting out killer track after killer track. Three albums in less than a year is a herculean feat, and that each one is brilliant, building on the energy of the one before, well... it's all worth shouting about. Dig this so much, I bought all 3 and donated them to my radio station, KDUR, so we all get to hear them over the air in Colorado. Chuffed to get to play them for others. ElmerD
