“Alive in the Mystery”

Recorded live September 19, 1987, Edward Herbert Hall, Loughborough University, England
Track 8, CD2 : Studio Outtake (ca. 1974)
Track 9, CD2 : Live ca. 1976

Notes:
This was recorded on an university in England. The sound is good on CD1 and a little worse on CD2. This is an audience recording and rarely performed songs from the PCCC are played.

Van Tree Policy:
Please respect the efforts and the wishes of the dedicated bands of volunteers who put countless hours of time and energy into producing and treeing these rare live performances: please do not offer any of these tree volumes for sale.

  1. Oh yeah! Poetic Champions is a true favourite amongst real hard core Van fans. A real treat to have a few of the rarer trax live on this one.
    Cheers for this one Mat

  2. Mat- I think source 2 “Mono Version” is actually two shows. Disc 1 is is the Sept 18th show and discs 2 and 3 are the Sept 19th show. Here are the notes I found from a version I downloaded somewhere.
