Another ACE show, Matt! Iggy and the ‘Mats in the same block–heck, yeah! And loved hearing Max Q again. Was that actually a remix from the CD single? I once owned it so long ago… Would now love for that long-rumored “Dogs in Space” reissue to appear. And really liked the New Order track. Started off sounding like R.E.M.’s “Discoverer” with that cool riff, then kind of segued into a not-so-distant cousin of the Scream’s “Come Together” near the end. Again, top show from start to finish. Many thanks!
I love Camper’s “eye of Fatima”. Great song.
