I like this a lot. Early Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds (November 1984), stripped back and raw. The audio is bass-light and a bit spiky, but the fidelity is good.
Most of the tracks are previewing their soon to be second LP “the Firstborn is Dead”.
Annoyingly, the audio is embedded into the page, and annoyingly you have to play each track separately, but it’s worth the effort.
Try out Black Crow King if you’re not sure.
- Blind Lemon Jefferson
- Train Long Suffering
- From Her To Eternity
- Say GoodBye to the Little Girl Tree
- Knockin’ On Joe
- Black Crow King
- Well of Misery
- Saint Huck
- Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door
- I Put a Spell On You

Hey G&A,
Each of the song titles for the Meervaart show are hot-linked to the mp3 file and easily downloaded by right-clicking. Sorry it wasn’t clear! 🙂 I’m in the process of uploading the flac so I’ll include that link later today. Cheers and Happy New Year!
