The Fall - Sheffield University 1983

by sheffieldtapearchive

supported by

dub orange 1983...a great period for the mighty fall with the 2 drummers line up, a favourite for msny fall fanatics like me.
soundquality is not high tech, but it is ok enough to listen to it, with their music that is not such a problem as with music, where sound is a integral part of the music.
thank you for releasing more and more fall gigs and for pay what you like, i really appreciate that! Favorite track: Pat Trip Dispenser.

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
