5.0 out of 5 stars Fall -live at the witchtrials, September 29, 2005

I love this album. For years I had it on a tape together with Dragnet. Finally got it on CD. This album sounds stripped down, nothing fancy just great music and Mark E Smiths distinctive voice. The entire album was recorded in one day and mixed the following day. The Fall are an underrated band to come out of the punk / post-punk era of England. This album sounds just as good today as it did when I first heard it some 17 years ago. Although it is the Fall's first album it sounds remarkably mature and together. Highly recommended to those who have an open mind to music.

5.0 out of 5 stars we were screaming 'cop out cop out' as if from heaven!, April 6, 1999

This review is from: Live at the Witch Trials (Audio CD)

the first installment from the institution. v. good. hair,short, the lot. 1979. it is the english version, which includes 'mother-sister', 'industrial estate' and excludes 'various times'. b. warned: a vinyl transcription noisier tahn the copy i own. but it's not easy to find this one and the songs are there. now if we could only get someone to pump out 'dragnet'...

4.0 out of 5 stars "We are The Fall! Northern white crap, but we talk back!", January 1, 1999

...pretty much sums it up. This would be a five star title if it weren't for the absolutely terrible quality of the CD recording, on occasion nearly completely losing the left channel of sound. If you find this on vinyl certainly pick it up. This CD is a poor version of one of the true masterpieces of "punk rock", if The Fall can be called that. Suggest trying some of the other later Fall releases, such as Infotainment Scan or Light User Syndrome first if you have yet to be introduced to the Wonderful and Frightening World of The Fall. You've been warned:
