I still have the cassette I recorded from the broadcast that night & having not listened to it for many years always just assumed they had returned to the show later in the programme & that's where I'd heard Roadkill. I wonder if I had been in fact listening to the webcast if there was one after the radio cut away? I think the idea has been muted before but would it be beyond the board to compile the definitive live versions of every pulp album? The best live versions of each track in turn.

Thanks will.i.am!

Slightly undercooked performance. Understandable given it was its live debut (and perhaps only outing?).

I was listening to We Love Life in full for the first time in ages recently and forgot how good, and very sad Roadkill actually is. Made me feel a bit guilty for skipping it whenever it comes on a random playlist - it's obviously very downbeat so it needs to catch you in a certain mood to appreciate it and that three-note guitar bit that goes through the whole song gives it a bit of an amateur-ish air (Jarvis was obviously keen on that part, recycling it as a piano phrase for the Loss Adjuster excerpts on his first solo album) but I think the song works well in the context of the album as the penultimate track leading nicely into Sunrise.
