Do You Remember Radio?

Description

Two high octane radio concerts from Husker Du, one from 1985 when the band were enjoying an upsurge of interest globally not just locally due to the success of the Byrds cover single 8 Miles High and the albums New Day Rising & Flip Your Wig. The other concert is a rare glimpse into an early performance from 1981 when the band had only one single out on a local indie label. Features 4 singles 'Makes No Sense At All', 'Celebrated Summer', 'Don't want to know if you are lonely' & 'Sorry Somehow. Extensive liner notes by author Dick Porter. Presented in gatefold card sleeve with art by Sophie Lo. Two-thirds of the way into their nine year existence, Hüsker Dü had hit the first phase of their popular and creative peak. The January 1985 release of the band's third studio album, New Day Rising, saw the trio transcend their hardcore origins with a set of material that simultaneously referenced rock's pasts and futures. By moving away from the American hardcore scene that was increasingly withering between its rigid, conformist straight edges, the trio drew predictable criticism from those who remained unwilling to progress with them.
