Album:Urgh! A Music War
We found a mint condition vinyl copy of the Urgh! A Music War soundtrack today and we are feelin' mighty fine about it. An amazing compilation concert film originally released in 1981, Urgh! features early performances from XTC, The Police, Oingo Biongo, The Go-Go's. OMD, Joan Jett, UB40, Echo & The Bunneymen, Devo, Wall Of Voodoo, Gary Numan and more. The performances were shot around the world (Hollywood, Santa Monica, Paris, England, New York and so on) and feature some outstanding raw presentations.
Our favorite happens to be XTC's live performance of Respectable Street, shot in Paris in 1980. The song was brand new here. Check it out below, and make sure you track down a copy of the film (and soundtrack), it's worth the trouble!
