It's good...but that's all it is, good. I gather the reason both it and the movie exist is because Porl had already told Robert he wanted to quit soon and Robert wanted to have a good document of the time and place (and also to have something without Lol, ie The Cure in Orange, which is still a better film and performance overall).
But that encore on the Show film, now that's something.

I also have Swinging Piggy In The Mirror lying around somewhere.
The version of "Forever" on the Faith bonus disc is... disturbing. I LONG FOR AND LUST AFTER THE CURIOSITY VERSION.

The Killing Joke back catalogue is being re-issued later this year. Here's hoping they follow this example.

(SO GREAT)
(Also that extended chord on the words "Charlotte Sometimes" with all the ninths and elevenths in it!)
― The Ghost of Dan Perry (Dan Perry), Monday, 2 May 2005 18:36 (nineteen years ago) link
I remember reading a Cure write-up long ago that was talking about the amazing imagery of Smith's lyrics and quoted as an example "'Come to escape,' he says/And Charlotte sometimes..." I think I went completely postal in ridiculing this writer. I think it's in Ten Imaginary Years somewhere.

It would be a great listen, there are lots of superb versions of songs that spring to mind, it could start at '79 and go through to '04.
Anyone interested? Any song suggestions?

I was really on the fence about buying "Seventeen Seconds" but am very glad. The remastering alone makes these discs worthy. I listened to the Cure prior to "Head On the Door" only on cassette, and in that situation almost exclusively through crappy Walkman headphones. Listening now through a real stereo (and even on my computer's Altec's) is eye opening. AWESOME.
My complaint is that I really don't see the point of the live tracks included...I'd much, much, much rather just have a reissue of all-live stuff.
FYI, I remember searching and searching and FINALLY finding a "Concert" import CD in college and selling a textbook to go buy it.
