More hi-fi spy soundtrack stuff live from August 23, 1997. The high octane intro to the Mysterons set, so loud that it broke the original VHS tape! Gotta love analog video. Was I giving the sound guy the finger or just asking for more monitors? Maybe both. You decide! Jezebel kicks ass on drums. Original blurry video and cracked PA speakers even further enhanced for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!

    Sounds like a fine soundtrack to a fun time! Space surf goodness!

    I really hope, with the Gerry Anderson-inspired band name, that you did a version of the Joe 90 theme – that would've sounded great!

    I can't believe how powerful those drums sound! Awesome song, reminds me of Yawning Man a lot.

    I suppose most folks know this but the voice over at the start is from Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons, a Gerry Anderson puppet show, which unbelievably violent – the Mysterons routinely murdered several people before the opening credits. Even Captain Scarlet casually shoots some guy during the title sequence and he's the good guy! Ed appears briefly in 2001 A Space Odyssey but his big gig was in a live action Anderson production called UFO. Worth a look if you like old school sci-fi…

    Hard to believe how good that snare sounds too.

    Worthy of an album. Even this live recording is a great mix. Lo-fi, but lo-fi can be better than Hi-fi when it fits musically. I think if this was my music I would upload via CD Baby, for sale. It only takes a couple hours to get your music on itunes, amazon, etc these days.

    Is there no end to your talent!? This rare footage, rough as it may be, should be digitized and saved to disk

    I like that short-scale bass. They were always my favorite to play.
