Excellent quality FM radio broadcast of The Fall playing (bizarrely) the WOMAD (World Of Music And Dance) Festival - generally known for its world music performers. Quite how The Fall came to be on the bill - or how they were received by an audience more used to acts such as The Bhundu Boys - I can't imagine. Track 10 does, however, have some tape 'flutter' but this doesn't detract too much from the set as a whole.
