One of my all-time favorite Low shows, this is a beautiful in-store set played to a quiet and attentive audience. There were some volume and mic noise problems during "Over the Ocean", which have been cleaned up as best as possible. Otherwise, the sound is near-perfect.
And so is the performance -- lots of beautiful Long Division material. There's a special treat at the end of "Words", when Alan plays a few chords from an unreleased/unfinished song fragment. At the end of their set at Spaceland later that day, Alan played it again, this time singing along. Since there's no known title, I've named it for its lyrics from the evening performance: "I Can't Lose You". I hope someday this song is completed and released -- it's only a few seconds long, but I think it's beautiful. After all, "Two-Step" started out in much the same way, as can be heard on the March 1, 1995 show...
There were two other people recording at this show, one to cassette and one to video. The video recording was recently transferred to DVD, using the audio from this DAT source, and torrented on Dimeadozen.org; the results are well worth seeking out.
