Blake Babies - 9/11/91, Stache's, Columbus, OH

Here's my second convenient segue in as many days.  The mere mention of the Blake Babies in the last night's Mysteries of Life entry prompted me to delve into my trove of live shows.  Out came this little gem - perhaps not a show for the ages, as they say, but still very good.  Best of all, for you "lossless" types in the audience, I've decided to keep this one intact.  Translation: these files are in FLAC, not MP3. 

Recorded ten years to the day in advance of what was to be the most monumental tragedy on American soil, the Blake Babies performance at Stache's in Columbus was captured by an attendee, with the audio quality rivaling that of a soundboard tape.  The band was touring in support of the Sunburn album, and it's subsequent ep, Rosy Jack World.   Plenty of deep cuts make it into the set, and the trio saves covers of Wire's "Outdoor Miner" and Dino Jr.'s "Severed Lips" for dessert. 

A very big thank you to whomever recorded this concert, assembled the artwork (wasn't me on either count) and for just plain making this available.  I'm also sharing the Babies' Sunburn demos and Nicely, Nicely ep.
