What better way to start the year that with Alabama 3 doing a cover of Johnny Cash’s Folsom Prison Blues live at SXSW this past year….

 

I have the need for something semi-aggressive.  Thanks to the magic of the intertubse, I give you Meat Beat Manifesto’s Prime Audio Soup.

 

 
But better yet, here is No Purpose, No Design live at the Metro in Chicago, June 22nd of 2005. I was at this show, just left of the camera in the balcony (but, no, you do not see me).

 
That was an amazing time….

Found this on a message board this evening – Meat Beat Manifesto Live at Maritime Hall in 1997.

The sound quality is quite nice, 11 tracks in total.

(as always, I have no connection to this upload – it was found via search engines and patience)

Here is a 23 min Prodigy concert I found on pandora.tv – interesting watch if you have some time to burn.

This is another rare find, one I pulled off of an FTP server overnight.  I know nothing about this recording, except for the fact that it is the earliest Orb concert I’ve ever seen.

Interesting to notes – “A Huge Ever Growing…” is unlike any other recording I’ve heard, it’s significantly faster and the arrangement seems to be different.  Also, “Towers of Dub” was released on the U.F. Orb album (1992), so I wonder if they were testing this live in 1991 to see fan reaction.

Track listing:

• Intro
• Little Fluffy Clouds
• Towers of Dub
• Perpetual Dawn
• Star 6 & 7, 8, 9
• Outlands
• A Huge Ever Growing Pulsating Brain That Rules from the Centre of the Ultraworld
