Fans of Echo & The Bunnymen can commemorate the band’s recent gigs performing their first two albums — 1980’s Crocodiles and 1981’s Heaven Up Here — back-to-back with a brand-new live CD called Do It Clean. To preview the set, recorded last December in Liverpool, the band posted free MP3s of “Pride” and “Show of Strength,” both of which can be streamed or downloaded below. The live CD — featuring just the two albums in their entirety — can be ordered directly from the band for £10 in the U.K. and £12 anywhere else in the world.
