There's something innately magical about a band that are just poised on that point where they are about to break through to the sunlit uplands of the toppermost of the poppermost. Pulp were one such combo when they played the Town & Country Club in North London on July 20th 1991, as part of the Class of '91 shows, sponsored by the New Musical Express.
Reviewing the show, the NME said: 'Pulp are the party clowns and wisely flaunt the metaphysical red noses with deadpanned glee. Singer Jarvis is, to all intents and purposes Frank Spencer auditioning for Saturday Night Fever, and therein lies the essence of Pulp-sartorial catastrophes dress in funk-splattered overcoats. When they're not getting groovy, the fivesome are manufacturing an absurd brand of pop which is more sly than a fox with a crossbow. Furniture meets Chic and decides hey, maybe we can live together after all.
This amazing gig, releasd on CD for the first time care of North London indie Retroworld on Monday, February 25th 2013 offers an insight into the eclectic musical roots of the bands' idiosyncratic style. The beginning of this recording even has a flavour of the eccentricity of lead singer jarvis Cocker, arriving as he did just five minutes before being due on stage, having been stuck on a train from Liverpool. His stylophone solo remains a musical highlight!
