Life @ The Basement

Recorded at The Basement / Soundtrack to the Documentary "A Night At Sea"
Artwork by Olaf Meyer.
"The third "Live sounding album" for Normal Records. It was originally released under Return To Sender. a Mail Order only subsidiary, with limited editions of 2000 copies through Glitterhouse Mail Order. This was an actual LIVE recording, unlike the other two. It was also filmed for the purposes of the Documentary 'A Night At Sea' which was originally screened on ABC TV in Australia in 2000. There was a typo..which is reflected on the Spine. It says Life@The Basement, while the cover says Live@The Basement. I prefer the former title." Louis Tillett
