This performance by Cocteau Twins was recorded live on TV in the UK in late 1983. (They played "From the Flagstones" too, which I may upload later). This rendition of Musette & Drums was their best-ever TV performance, in my opinion. The band were at their best creatively too. There's a couple of small sound drop-outs, but those were on the original TV broadcast, so there's nothing I can do :-(

love this performance. even Robin's flat G string can't take away from it.

@PlasticR0b0t the vibration in her vocal chords couldn't possibly come from a human being...only Elizabeth Fraser.

Such a great band.

hey Robot! eventually all things have to come back together. might as well be sooner than later. this is just my guess, but i'm guessing that the problem is about jealousy and lack of communication. nothing unusual, but when you have two so highly talented and sensitive people, it turns into Thermonuclemotional War....the ridiculous result of the 'Christian' dogma of Monogomy, which is totally unnatural..but i'm guessing that Robin is being the bigger.. Asshole. INSENSITIVE

@SanFranciscoJames I hate to say it, but it's best that they remain apart.

Thumbs up. Anyone who makes reference to Guthrie's genius sweeping arpeggio guitar line in this song has my respect.
I absolutely love how the arpeggio line hits you like a brick when it comes back in after the breakdown at 2:50. Definitely, one of the highest emotional points for me in any song ever made.
