London Girl is on both the New England shows from '86, being Boston and Providence.

The Boston boot from "the Spit" is decent enough sound - - I'd add a few numbers from that show to the ongoing [i]Ultimate Live[i] disc, in addition to some stuff from the great sounding show they did in Orange, France in '86 that recently surfaced...

[quote="trashcity"]Alexs compilation looks VERY good, would love to hear it.

As an aside, was London GIrl ever played live? Its a sin if not.[/quote]

It has been played on a couple of shows in 1986. But if I remember correctly the sound of these shows is poor.

Alexs compilation looks VERY good, would love to hear it.

As an aside, was London GIrl ever played live? Its a sin if not.

I only own one bootleg, and it is believed to be the first American concert recorded, Boston 1986.
Besides the regular favorites,

as the intro- A Pistol for Paddy Garcia
I'm a Man You Don't Meet Everyday (Cait vocals, with great backup vocals from Shane)
London Girl
Billy's Bones
The Parting Glass ("extended version nice instrumental riffing at the end")

plus some of the crowd noise, my two favorites-
one guy continually calling for "The Men Behind the Wire"
and the other guy calling for "The Wild Rover", eventually one of the Pogues (Jem, Phillip? )replying "Well, this one is called Wildcats (of Kilkenny) actually"

So, this is going to be a boxed set, not one CD, 8) :D right?

With all of the live shows the Pogues have played, there are tons of boots available around, which allows you to listen to the way the band has changed over the years. Luckily, you also get to hear some of the best, most transcendent recordings of favorite songs. So here's the question: if you had to make an "Ultimate Pogues Live CD", which tracks from which shows would you include on it? A "best of" for the live shows, if you will.
