Vera Groningen - comp. LP/CD

  • NL: vera / semaphore. 001 / 10 tracks (14 on CD) / 1990
  • + printed inner sleeve, according to the cover the LP version has a booklet with infos about the Vera club. CD has 4 extra tracks.
  • Compilation from the Dutch Vera club, issued for the 950th anniversary of their home town of Groningen. Live songs by the club maker's favorite bands, all recorded at Vera, live sound is good but sometimes a bit too thin. Good live tracks by Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr, Silvia Juncosa and Leaving Trains. Most of the other stuff is rather mediocre - get the CD and skip the crap. [6]  
  • Eine Art Geburtstagssampler zur 950-Jahr-Feier von Groningen mit den Faves, die im Vera-Club bisher gespielt haben. Nette Live-Songs von Sonic Youth (tolle Lärmorgie), Silvia Juncosa, Dinosaur Jr, Leaving Trains und einigen anderen; der Live-Sound ist durchweg gut, manchmal leider etwas dünn. Ansonsten leidet diese Platte vor allem unter der üblichen Samplerkrankheit: einige Highlights, dafür aber auch eine ganze Menge Mittelmaß. Lohnt wegen der guten Tracks, den Rest muss man eben überspringen.
  • Tracks: Scientists - murderess in a purple dress / The Feelies - crazy rhythms / Sylvia Juncosa - the desert song / The Dream Syndicate - 50 ina  25 zone / Sonic Youth - broken eye / The Leaving Trains - so fucked up / Dinosaur Jr - the lung / The Nomads - real gone lover / Alex Chilton - the rubber room / The Gun Club - sexbeat / //CD has these bonus tracks:// Giant Sand - underground train / Naked Prey - the story never ends / De Artsen - nico-ode / Thin White Rope - mr limpet
