Faith No More - First Live Show Ever 1983 - Part 4 - Spirit

Side 1: (Live) The entire first performance of Faith. No More., recorded on Oct.11 at SF's On Broadway.
Band members consisted of Faith. No More. along with appreciated assistance from Joe Pie (vocals) and Jake Smith (guitar).
Sound was engineered by Matt Wallace.

Thanks to all who attended the show and enabled its success, and to those who hope to see the next one.

There is nothing very odd about disliking birds of prey, but this is no reason for holding it against large birds of prey that they carry off lambs. And when the lambs whisper amoung themselves,'These birds of prey are evil, and does this not give us a right to say that whatever is the opposite of the bird of prey must be good?' there is nothing intrinsically wrong with this argument, although the birds of prey will look somewhat quizzically and say,"We have nothing against these good lambs; in fact, we love them; nothing tastes better than tender lamb.'"

this audio is running WAY too fast, no wonder Joe sounds like a chipmunk. it needs to be slowed down around 6 or 7%

[DieSchwartzmann]

Talk about embryonic...this is skeletal.

I'm so glad they performed it so long before it was recorded for the album, even Joe's delivery is halfway between hardcore punk and revolution poet, rather than singer.
