Bu versiyon da güzelmiş hakikaten ama bunun en güzel versiyonu Noisette'deki. Beş kişi de gayet iyilerdi. Niye şutladılar ki Lyn Dobson'ı?

Their finest lineup, fortunately captured in the BBC studios radio broadcasts on "The Peel Sessions" but never properly on an album. They would have made "Fourth" a stronger LP, I think.

This is the best era of the band……. The French had a great appreciation for this type of excellence in music….. Can you imagine seeing this on American TV? Never happened. I believe this is around the timeframe between their album "Volume Two", and their recording and release of "Third".

why do people always fucking upload great old videos in 240p. There is no reason for that.
