The Monday Set: The Legendary Pink Dots/Big City Orchestra – Tryst 7


The Legendary Pink Dots/Big City Orchestra
Tryst 7 Cassette
1994

Back in 1994 I ordered this split cassette that was limited to 200 copies. The Legendary Pink Dots track is a mix of old material into a new “mega-mix” song. The interesting thing about this release is that BCO and LPD both produced two mixes, so there are actually 4 different editions of this cassette floating around. This is cassette number 93/200 and was packaged with a bunch of miscellaneous items like a magazine, buttons, toys, stickers, etc.

Setlist:
1. The Legendary Pink Dots – The Politics of Excess
2. Big City Orchestra – Biegciteyorkatraw

The Legendary Pink Dots – A World With No Mirrors

The Legendary Pink Dots kick off a tour next month in support of their forthcoming album “Plutonium Blonde.” This has to be close to album number 30 for them since beginning back in 1982. From what I’ve heard of this new record, it offers more of the same great songs I’ve come to expect from them since I first heard them in the late ’80s. And as the press release that was included with this track states, it’s “their most commercially appealing album to date.” I would have to agree.

The Monday Set: The Legendary Pink Dots – Jacobshof, Germany – 10/25/87


The Legendary Pink Dots
Aachen
Jacobshof, Germany
10/25/87

This is probably for the extreme fan only. The quality of this recording is seriously questionable, but it’s one of only 2 live LPD sets that I have and it’s from my absolute favorite time period, right around when Any Day Now was released. The stellar song selection almost makes up for the poor quality recording. Today’s sample track is the first LPD’s song I ever heard and is still one of my favorites.

Set List:
1. Regression
2. Love Puppets
3. Neon Mariners
4. A Lust For Powder
5. Mmmmmmmmmmmm…
6. Mmmmmmmmmmmm… (Restart)
7. The Gallery

I see that the Legendary Pink Dots are going on their 25th Anniversary Tour starting next week. I see they are kicking it off in Denver at the Bluebird Theater. This show was recorded a little over ten years ago at the Mercury Cafe in Denver.
