So, all in all would you say it's worth getting or not? I'm tempted.

I've listened to it a few times now and I certainly like it a lot. Although I'm a bit biased because I do really like Separations and live recordings from that time, so it's just the sort of thing that ought to appeal to me.

You won't find a better live recording from '91, so I'd say it is worth getting, particularly if you like Separations a lot.

It's on Spotify now if you want to try before you buy.

Thanks for mentioning that it's on Spotify. Ordered it from Floating World about two weeks ago but it still hasn't arrived. Good to hear it and to have a nice, sharp quality live recording of a '91 show.

well in biology it means the final form on a tree of evolutionary predecessors.

or, not "final" exactly but "current" anyway.

I've listened on Spotify too and it sounds great. Really enjoyable gig, and a nice time capsule of a transitional time. The end of Death II seems also to be the only extant example anywhere of Candida messing up!

Saddoes may also wish to note that this show has the earliest extant versions of Space, Live On and Babies, and the second-earliest versions of Death II, My Legendary Girlfriend and Countdown (and the first without a heinously out-of-tune guitar).

What does extant mean again?

Extant means 'still existing'

The cheapest I've found this is at Sainsburys for £6.99 with free delivery. That's half of what it is at HMV and the like - https://www.sainsburysentertainment.co.uk/en/Music/CD/Pulp/Party-Clowns/product.html?product=E11142214

Is this available as an mp3 download? No spotify in China, and can't be bothered to go through the hassle of getting it shipped here.

This disc is magic! clean,crisp & punchy. I wish there we're more recordings from this era of this quality.

Yeah, went into HMMV on Oxford Street and the one in Piccadilly earlier to see if they had it but it was £13. Fook that. Was also looking for the deluxe edition of Blur's Modern Life Is Rubbish but they only had the expensive 21 box. Fairly disappointing trip.

Some gentleman uploaded Death 2 from that show onto youtube for those un-Spotify-ed.

I think it sounds incredible.

 Brilliant album that and only a tenner as well for the deluxe. I thought I wanted the 21 boxset until I bought that and I realised that it scratched my itch admirably.

I used to live about 30 seconds walk from the Town & Country Club, I would have been 11 in 1991, funny to think of that going on up the road whilst I was completely oblivious. Was probably watching 'Neighbors' or something.

Listening on Spotify now, it does sound fantastic!

Out of interest, is it cheaper in Rough Trade or HMV? I'm guessing the former...

Think it was a tenner in Rough Trade East when I went in last week. Definitely cheaper than HMV though.

Blur's 21 box is worth the money, just wait a few months and it'll be available for less.

Party Clowns was released on vinyl a few weeks back. Encouraging perhaps, with regard to future live/legacy Pulp releases.

I grabbed the vinyl the other week. $20 USD in New York. And I think it's one of my favourite live recordings of theirs.

I get a big kick out of the early version of Babies on this. judging by this thread, it would seem that the video footage of it doesn't (or never did) exist, but here's hoping it pops up one day....
