This is an in-studio session recorded for the BBC’s Andy Kershaw in September 1987. The performances are fairly standard,
although it’s interesting that “Poison in the Well” was still being performed both live and at this in-studio session,
given that it would not be released until the “Blind Man’s Zoo” album in 1989.
10,000 Maniacs’ “The Wishing Chair” L.P. will celebrate its 30th anniversary this year
(original release date – September 23, 1985). Since it seems apparent that the Maniacs
are not being given the remaster / bonus tracks / box set treatment that they so richly
deserve, I’ve decided to upload all of my 70+ live and rare 10,000 Maniacs recordings
during the coming weeks. Although many of these recordings will be re-seeds of previous
Dime torrents, a substantial number have never appeared on the Dime (and many others
haven’t been shared since the Dime’s previous incarnation as “easytree.org” circa 2005).
Enjoy!
