Dillinger 4: D4! The Bootleg (The BBC Sessions)
2010
Chickswithdickrecords
Format I Own it on: Vinyl
Track Listing: 1. A Jingle For The Product 2. Folk Song 3. Gainesville 4. D4 = Putting The "F" Back In "Art"
A live bootleg of Dillinger 4 recorded for some radio show....The back cover is also ultra misleading, since it gives the impression that there's a lot more music on here than there actually is...Y'see, it lists 25 tracks on the back cover, although if you look closely, there aren't any D4 songs listed...It's a bunch of song titles by Black Sabbath, Grateful Dead, etc...So if you're fucking stupid, you might mistake this as a massive collection of D4 covering a couple dozen tracks on a single album...And as much as I'd love to hear D4 tackle some Gary Numan or Slayer, we all know that's not going to happen...
In reality, there are really only 4 songs, all on a single side with side two being blank...Two from "Situationist Comedy" and two from "Civil War." And there was really no need for the track listing to be so misleading, because this is actually a fucking great live EP...There's no audience or banter, being a live recording for a radio show or something, but this is a best case scenario as far as a live recording can go...Nice and fat and probably clearer than most studio Dillinger Four albums...There are no big surprises or changes to the arrangements or anything; they just perform the songs pretty much exactly like they were recorded...
Should you pay $15.00 for this? Uhmmm, fuck no. $10.00? Ehhhh....$7.00? Okay, if you're a super hardcore D4 fan 7 bucks is perfectly reasonable...It kicks a fair amount of ass, still $5.00 would be better...It really is a super nice bootleg...
I'd post a video, but none of these recordings are on youtube and I don't feel like putting them up there cos I'm sick of my account being suspended...So here's Black Sabbath...
...and the Grateful Dead...
...and Slayer...Enjoy...
