Ok, I'd better say a few words... When I received both this and the following one (Cambridge Boathouse) they were mixed up and named as Boston 1971 & 1973, but I think they were accidentally mis-labeled at some time.   Why do I think this? Well, by doing a comparison of some tracks included in Precise Modern Lovers Order & also by checking out some other people's early Modern Lovers web pages: they tie in as actually being from Harvard University 1971 & Cambridge Boathouse.  Quality-wise though, the recording sound is pretty rough, especially when you compare them to the cleaned up songs included on Precise Modern Lovers Order, but, because some are not included on either Precise Modern Lovers Order or Live at the Longbranch Saloon, then they are probably only available within this recording. So, that's my ten cents, enough said...

1971 Boston Cambridge USA Harvard University

The very first JR song I ever heard. I heard Hospital on the radio around 1976 or so. That got me hooked for life.

A CD bootleg released in 1998 by Punk Vault(PVCD1003). The sound is generally pretty good

Same story as the Harvard University...I think... However please let me know if you can help identify either of them better - thanks.

Tracks on the re-issue: Dignified and Old, I'm Straight, Government Center, I Wanna Sleep in your arms, Dance With Me

The very first JR album I bought. I ordered this LP through the mail around 1976-1977.

Proto Punk. Years ahead of it's time. It plays like a Greatest Hits album. Classic.

Has there ever been a greater opening few seconds than "1 2 3 4 5 6"? Answer: No

Behold the Lilies of the Field is missing the first few seconds on this recording

Camina y ven pa? la loma is a Spanish song from Cuba by Ciro Rodriguez

2003 Mar 7 Barcelona Spain Sala Razzmatazz 3

Doesn't seem to get played much anymore, but I love this song

How is JR able to point out things that rarely get pointed out in such a lucid way?

A super sounding show and a pretty long concert. Jonathan does quite a few French songs tonight, as well as a French version of 'Not in my Name'.

C'etait Toujours Toi means "It Was Always You"

2003 Mar 14 Paris France Cafe de la Danse

She's not so scary she's got all of my records! 

The term "Vampire Girl" has entered into my natural dialect because of this song
