Live in Brighton on Erasureinfo YouTube (audio)

Post by kwerty »

So... here's a curious thing that seems to have been added to the official Erasure channel on YouTube - ALL of the tracks from the radio broadcast of the 1987 Circus tour at Brighton Dome (uploaded 12 days ago apparently). Judging by the cover art used and the logo in particular (which is the fan-made 'erasure' font), it looks like it's a bootleg, which makes it more curious that it's on the official channel. Having said that, the official Depeche Mode channel has been doing this with live concerts for a while now.

Note that these tracks - like quite a few things uploaded to the official channel - are not collected anywhere to make them easy to find eg like in the Videos or Releases tab. (It's a similar situation with the Cowboy deluxe edition - it's all on YouTube, but weirdly not listed)

In no particular order, the ones I have found are:

Who Needs Love Like That


Leave Me To Bleed


Don't Dance


Push Me Shove Me*


Spiralling


The Circus


Victim Of Love


It Doesn't Have T Be (sic)


Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!


Oh, L'Amour


If I Could


Say What


Sometimes


*This would be the nearest to an official release this track has ever had. There's a 'skip' near the start though, which suggests it could be mastered from the transcription disc or something, rather than the original source.

I wonder if it's the same as this https://www.plastichead.com/erasure-liv ... sc-1151772 or if they're gearing up for an official release?

I certainly wouldn't mind them releasing old radio recordings officially.

Edit: Had a look around and it's also on apple music https://music.apple.com/tj/album/bright ... 1852287745
