Details: The Verlaines double LP issue of the band playing live at Windsor Castle in Aukland NZ in May of 1986, released on Schoolkids Records for RSD 2021. Gatefold design. Limited to 1000. Sky blue vinyl. New stock, sealed.

Description:Graeme Downes’ tense, melodic pop project The Verlaines was at one of its many creative peaks in 1986, having released stunning debut album Hallelujah All The Way Homethe year before and gearing up to record their masterpiece, 1987’s Bird Dog. This live recording from a pub gig in Auckland, New Zealand, captures the band at that perfect midpoint between those two LPs. The tight-knit trio (Downes on guitar and vocals, bassist Jane Dodd and drummer Robbie Yeats) slashes through seven songs from Bird Dogand a smattering of older tunes.” —Robert Ham
