CD BOOTLEGS
Interview Picture Disc [1982] (Available on vinyl & CD)
The Interview Picture Disc (aka Conversation Disc) was released in 1982 by Baktabak Records. This bootleg is available on both
CD & Vinyl. The album features an interview with Robin, Liz, and Simon following the release of their album Treasure. The interview is approximately 45 minutes long.
The vinyl version is a picture disc and therefore has great big images of super-Cocteau-eighties hairdo's! Catalogue #BAK2016 (apparently limited to 1500 copies).
Live In London 1986 [1995]
Live in London - recorded at the National Ballroom, Kilburn (England) on November 18, 1986 yet released in 1995. This has got to be one of the worst
live Cocteau Twins recordings ever produced. The sound quality is horrible. The producer of this compact disc states on the back that it is "limited to 1,000" copies
even though most of the copies i've seen (including the one I own) is numbered well over 1,000 (my copy is 1,004). This is (like most
Cocteau Twins bootlegs, a much sought-after, very-over-priced, not worth having unless you're a collector kinda item!
Forgotten 4AD Tracks [year]
The infamous Forgotten 4AD Tracks, yet another over-priced bootleg of 20 great (previously released) Cocteau Twins tracks
This bootleg actually provides a decent selection of Cocteau goodies ranging from 1982 to 1991. Tracklisting: Alas Dies Laughing, It's All But An Arklark,
Peppermint Pig (7"), Laugh Lines, Hazel, Peppermint Pig (12"), Pearly-Dewdrops' Drops (12"), Kookaburra,
Quisquose, Rococo, Love's Easy Tears, Those Eyes, That Mouth, Sigh's Smell of Farewell, Orange Appled, Dials, Crushed,
High Monkey Monk, Mizake The Mizan, Watchlar, Oomingmak.
Pearly Pink & White [1994]
Pearly Pink & White is another horrid live audience recording of their show at the McAllister Auditorium, Tulane University, New Orleans, LA on
February 28, 1994. The sound quality of this recording prompts the question - why spend all the time and effort releasing this on comapact disc? Tracklisting:
Pur, Pitch the Baby, Heaven or Las Vegas, For Phoebe Still A Baby, Know Who You Are At Every Age, Road, River, and Rail, Evangeline, Whales Tails, Carolyn's Fingers, Bluebeard, Summerhead, Iceblink Luck, Blue Bell Knoll, Cico Buff, A kissed out float boat, Ella Megalast Burls Forever, Pink Orange Red.
Calfskin Smack [1999]
A Fan-produced CDR (Wasp Records CD 102) of a live concert at The Warfield, San Franciso June 22, 1996. Cd's are numbered and
production was apparently limited to 100 copies. Bound in a hideous brown leather case (calfskin - get it?) which looks more like
woodgrain! There are 17 tracks: Fifty-Fifty Clown, Calfskin Smack, Watchlar, Half-gifts, Rilkean Heart, Touch Upon Touch, Treasure Hiding, Ella Megalast Burls Forever, Pitch The Baby,
Wax and Wane, Aloysius, I Wear Your Ring, Summerhead, Seekers Who Are Lovers, Iceblink Luck (on the cd the track is listed as "Ice-blink Luck"), Violaine, Blue Bell Knoll.
