I adore the Buzzcocks. That's why I am so hopping mad over this release. what SHOULD be a 5-star disc is ruined by one of the most obvious audio flaws ever - the show was obviously taped on a slow recorder, then transferred to Disc at normal speed. The result: the whole thing sounds like a record or cassette being played too fast. The pitch is about a half-step higher than it shold be and everything is noticeably sped up. The only way I was able to enjoy this recording was to tape my CD, then play it back on a tape deck with pitch control so I could slow it down.

This is a crying shame, because the song selection here is really good.

NOTE: This is also available as part of a two-disc set called "Beating Hearts" which costs about half of what this single disc costs. Go figure.
