Always wanted to ask this question: what exactly happened at Pulp's December 1995 gig in Paris? Jarvis called it "the worst live experience ever", some online biographies say there was a tense atmosphere and the show was interrupted. Do you know the whole story? Always been intrigued by...

"Message to the Martians"
(Preview)
Blimey, the ancient Pulp track called "Message to the Martians" is a lot better than I'd ever considered, especially given its awful title!

Masters of the Universe Cover Photo
(Preview)
I'm talking about this one for those who may not have seen it. I remember a discussion on one of the Pulp mailing lists about 20 years ago about who the people were on the cover and it was established that it was Russell and Jarvis. However, I was just wondering when this photo was taken. The mid-80s Jarvis...

Sturdy probably covered this in his book, but what on Earth happened to Pulp between April and August 1982? On 13th April they play at the Limit, unveiling five new songs. They play again three days later, and record one of the new songs (and three older ones) two days after that. And then...nothing. We...

I've just been sorting through some MP3s and I stumbled across a spoken version of "The Quiet Revolution". I'm not sure how I came about this and have absolutely no idea where it's from (it kind of reminds me of "Loss Adjuster"...) Anyone? (download)
