Songs Played
- Roxy Music “Remake/Remodel” [Performed live on Full House] November 25, 1972
- No, not that Full House
- Brian Eno “Seven Deadly Finns” [Performed live on Dutch TV] 1974
- This was a single only release, though it would have fit well on either of his first two solo albums.
- Talking Heads “Life During Wartime” [Performed Live at the Capitol Theater, Passaic, NJ] 1980
- The performance and sound are better in Stop Making Sense but you’ve all heard that version probably 50 times by now.
- John Cale “Fear” [Performed live on the John Peel Show] January 5th, 1975
- Holy cow that scream at the end!
- DEVO “Space Junk” [Performed live at the Regency Ballroom, San Francisco] November 6th, 2009
- DEVO really didn’t care for Eno’s work on Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! and didn’t use a lot of it, though his keyboards remain on this song. I wasn’t able to find a live performance of it from the era but this one is still pretty good.
- Laurie Anderson “Puppet Motel” [Performed live in San Remo, Liguria, Italy] 2001
- This is from a live performance from when Anderson was awarded the Temco Prize, which according to Google translated Italian Wikipedia “…is one of the most important Italian musical awards, awarded annually, since 1974 , on the occasion of the Review of the Sanremo songwriter organized by the Tenco Club .”
- Robert Wyatt “Heaps of Sheeps” [b/w A Sunday In Madrid] 1997
- This was the only song I couldn’t find a live version of.
- Grace Jones “Hurricane” [Performed Live in Helsinki] 2010
- I only had 30 minutes, so I ended up using this version rather than this one, which is a bit longer, but just incredible– you should really watch it.
