I'm a little pressed for time, so this write-up is going to be on the short side. Then again, one doesn't have to extrapolate much when selling a Robyn Hitchcock live set. And this one really is a peach, featuring the man in question not long after his stint with the Soft Boys wrapped up. There are a handful of SB tunes in the show, but the bulk of the set consists of material from Robyn's especially grand early solo outings like I Often Dream of Trains and Black Snake Diamond Role. Some truly cult classics here as well, like "My Wife and My Dead Wife," "Uncorrected Personality Traits," and "Bells of Rhymney." Sounds like this was culled from a board tape or a well above-average audience recording. Enjoy.
