Cardiacs - The Alphabet Business Concern

Here springs of consolation rise
To cheer the fainting mind,
And thirsting souls receive supplies
And sweet refreshment find.
Oh God, whose thunder shakes the sky,
Whose eye this atom globe surveys,
To thee, my only rock, I fly;
Thy mercy in thy justice praise.
And wide angle lens (when you can dangle your own)?

I think this is 1992. Bob Leith was drumming in 1995 so this has to be earlier. Maybe this is ULU, Nov 1992?

Nice one, thanks for clearing that up. I went to the ULU gig just before this then which is why it looks so familiar - I cannot remember the exact date but pretty sure it was November 92.

Great clip, great band as ever.

best band ever

Where be this? It looks to me like the gig they did at the Forum in Kentish town circa 1995?
