It's probably going to be a couple more days until I have the chance to rip some more vinyl, but in the meantime, I'm giving you a vintage live show from TPOH that includes every song from Love Junk, and even the superb "She's So Young" b-side, "Let My People Go" to boot. Moe Berg and pals also give the audience a preview of a handful songs that would appear on 1990's One Sided Story. There's more than a few obligatory covers rounding this set out, not to mention banter and the occasional monologue. It's safe to say that they couldn't have offered this crowd a more thorough performance. This show comes from an above-average audience tape. If you haven't done so already, check out Moe's pre-TPOH outfit Facecrime, whose Sex and Revolution ep is available for the taking here.

Thanks for this! Love Junk is a fondly-remembered (by me, at any rate) Power Pop gem from an era where great PP was not that easy to find. I saw these guys in San Antonio, TX around the same time - I'm going to guess a few weeks prior, maybe in April - and it was a great show. Set list was nearly the same but they left out "She's So Young," which was my favorite cut from the album. Encore included a fun version of "Hanky Panky." Aaaaand... that's all I remember. Oh, and a terrible prog/metal band called Myth, led by a dude in a gold lame frock coat, opened the show.
Hadn't heard that (presumably early) version of "Food" before. Many thanks!
Netkups is dead, would be nice to get a re-upload of this one!
