Pressed on blue vinyl. In 2004 Heliospheric founder Jaz Long found a tape labelled "Kristin Hersh recorded on 29/03/1994, for future TX" in a bin at BBC Leeds -- an incredible find for a devoted fan of Hersh and Throwing Muses. Hersh had recorded these songs, which were never broadcast, with her acoustic guitar when she played Leeds on the Hips and Makers tour. The BBC and Hersh eventually approved the release of these stunning examples of Hersh's auditory hallucinations, with a particularly dramatic and luscious version of "Sundrops." Mastered directly from the quarter-inch tape.
