I mentioned this CD when I posted a version of Raindrops a short while back. Someone called Colin (but not Comrade Colin occasionally of this parish) said it would be nice to get the whole thing.Here's the sleeve notes in their entirety:-
Following the release of "Can our love..." and the soundtrack album "Trouble every day" October 2001 saw us embark on our most ambitious live project to date : touring europe (19 dates) playing each concert with a local string orchestra, meeting on the day, rehearsing in the afternoon and performing with them that evening.
After 10 dates we found ourselves in Berlin without our drummer Al (returning home due to illness). As there was never any question of replacing him we made the daunting decision to continue the tour, rebuilding the set and sound as we went along. The Berlin concert that night was fraught, but by the time we arrived in Lisbon (October 31st, the last night) we had gained something new and unexpected: a turning point that will resonate in our music for years to come.
We would like to thank our section leaders : Lucy, Calina, Rob, Sarah & Andy without whose energy and enthusiasm we would have been floundering. our management : Dave B & harry and our crew : David, Stewart, Anthony, Mark, Robin & Oscar for holding everything together.
A version of "Running Wild" appears on this recording, it was performed for the first time that night in Berlin and evolved on stage across the next 8 concerts, a "finished" version closes our sixth studio album "Waiting for the moon".

It was an official bootleg released by the band, limited to 2500 copies and sold on a subsequent tour. I looked and saw that one site was selling a copy for £49. I seem to recall it was about £10 or £12 at the time.

That's a wonderful set. I have to say, I am warming to them a lot recently. You spoiled us with this. Thanks.
A really great live CD, Tindersticks have released many great sets over the years. I got this from the band website at the time. Do you have the other official bootleg from the same year ? The Botanique, 9th -12th May, 2001.
Thanks for ALL your great posts. GM
Hi anon.
I'm happy to say that I also have the Botanique set as well.
Will post that here someday too....
on the back of Raindrops. I went out and bought Tindersticks 2 which has a live CD as bonus and have enjoyed listening to it all this week.
Amazingly buying on Amazon and shipping from the UK is still cheaper than buying direct here in Australia.
