'Inbetween' music taken from the Serge Gainsbourg soundtrack to Francois Leterrier's Goodbye Emanuelle (a.k.a. Emanuelle 3) (1977). TWI 081 was supposed to be the first in a series of live cassettes, called 'The Golden Years' (a Bowie reference?), also including the unreleased TWI 115, a Malaria concert (unreleased) and very likely the Tuxedomoon opening performance on the Dialogue North-South tour at the Beursschouwburg in Brussels, February 3 1982. [God bless LTM reissuing this CD. I've seen this one traded at eBay close to $100.00. Supposed to be the true Crépescule collector's stuff. Listening to it now, it's dated, reminder of there was a time loose production tapes were released from labels and still people dig it.] |
