[cassette zine]

Fast Forward was an Australian audio magazine with booklet. It's number two, released in December 1980, includes an interview with Nick Cave & Rowland S. Howard of The Birthday Party and 2 tracks. "Figure Of Fun" is a demo and "Yard" was taken from their first Peel session. By this time The Birthday Party was returning down under after a few months based in London. Also by this time 4AD released their first records, back in London, after their releases as The Boys Next Door with Australian Missing Link, including the album "The Birthday Party".

From Peel To Eternity

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
John Peel Session 1984

Nick Cave only recorded two sessions for the John Peel BBC Radio1 show. One in March 1984 (25 years ago) and another in 2001. I found the former today (as well as the latter but who gives a fuck!?). It's amazing, or fantastic as everyone says nowadays. In this time of pseudo-crisis, rejoice.
This was recorded on March 28th and broadcasted on April 9th 1984. Only three tracks but long ones. And great too. Nick Cave's first album (From Her To Eternity) was yet to be released, in June. This was probably recorded as Nick Cave And The Cavemen, following a string of gigs played between December and January as "Nick Cave - Man Or Myth?"
Accompanying Nick Cave was Mick Harvey on drums, Blixa an Hugo Race on guitars and Barry Adamson on bass. As Mick announced a few weeks ago his leaving from the band, none of them are still with Nick...
On March 30th, the first four albums will be re-released with some few extra tracks (digitally remastered, and so and so) but he/they forgot to include these recordings...

Just two final notes.
I'm back...
I like the photo ;-)
