Wobble and Levine did Metal Box in Dub a few years ago, too bad there isn't a good recording of that show, there are several YT videos which are alrightDr. Medulla wrote: ↑16 Jan 2018, 9:36am
On Wobble most recent(?) album, he revisits some old tunes, including "Public Image." Above is a live version of it. Maybe I'm too wedded to the original, but I think too much edge is lost in this interpretation.

Agree. If you can take the marathon song length it's got Top 5'er all-time performances of Poptones, No Birds, Death Disco, and Albatross on it.coffeepotman wrote: ↑16 Jan 2018, 12:35pmOhhhhhhhhhhhh! 1 million thank yous! I'm gonna enjoy this!

I've tried syncing the SBD audio to the audience video widely circulated on YouTube to get the ultimate viewing experience, but I'm just not good enough at matching soundtracks to make it plausible.

Re: Public Image Limited
Say, did anyone ever invest in Keith's re-recording of CZ?

Re: Public Image Limited
I tried, but didn't it sell out of its limited quantities really quickly or something?

Re: Public Image Limited
In doing further research, I see that it was released only to the Indigogo backers of the project in 2014. He had planned a wider release in 2015, but I can't find anything else about it. I also see that it's mostly new music, doesn't look like much from the original unless he changed titles: https://www.discogs.com/Keith-Levene-CZ ... se/7023459Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑17 Jan 2018, 3:57pmWay to make your stuff easily available, Keith.

The Slab and Lou Reed are the only titles that connect it to the original CZ.

Re: Public Image Limited
I've been trying to find a copy on and off since it came out, too, but no luck. Must've been a very limited release.
