    I went down to Dunedin (new zealand), and saw them play in 1980 in the Regent Theatre. There were about 500 drunk students, it was raining, it was the ideal way to start one of the best decades ever in music, the 1980s

      What's especially great about these recordings is that the bass and drums were mixed higher, which makes it better than the album recording. The 1980 Peel session is even better.

    Yeah just heard this, I love how random shit just pops up on youtube. I spent a bunch of years looking for green vinyl rarities and all kinds of shit in record stores, and am somewhat nostalgic of the time when you'd just *find* songs out of the blue on b sides and stuff, so this is like a goldmine, yet another rendition of what we know, but presented differently; I really love these alt lyrics versions sometimes; there's a great version of Charlotte Sometimes out there somewhere that sounds amazing. Thanks for uploading this. Lovely stuff.

    The lyrics of The Holy Hour and Primary are not yet definitive here. Here is Primary :
    Red in the Christmas tree shines
    And you lick your sticky lips
    Never mind
    I'll stare
    In love
    Yellow, such a happy colour
    But I feel so old
    Girl sits in a room drawing pictures
    Oh yellow yellow yellow yellow
    That's so cold
    Oh, oh remember
    Please don't change
    Blue is waiting for your brother
    You won't get seen again
    Sky high waves you
    and other colours
    Primary sound and primary fine
    Oh, oh remember
    Please don't change

    I’m a massive fan of this era of The Cure, but I’ll be honest… I never really cared much for “Primary”. I never understood the appeal, or why it was pushed as a single. However, this version of it is a whole different deal. I like this so much more. Better lyrics, better execution, better overall sound. Too bad this wasn’t the version on Faith.
