Bill Mallonee and the Vigilantes of Love live on BBC Radio London Live 20th October 2000
I got into VOL a couple of years ago when my good friend Andy Higgs saw them at the Greenbelt festival and bought me their seven-track EP "Free for good". From then on I was hooked - I saw them twice in 2000 at the Borderline club in London and have recently been enjoying their current CD "Audible Sigh" - these MP3's are taken from a broadcast on the BBC's local radio station London Live - it went out on 20th October, the day before I saw them for a second time in Soho. Before anyone (especially PlusNet, my ISP) get worried, I asked Bill if he minded me posting these recordings and he was really cool with it. The interview which is four and a half minutes long is there as an MP3 as well as a RealAudio file (which will stream if you can't wait for it to download !). The quality is typical of FM radio here in London - not bad. All MP3's are encoded at 128kbits per sec. |

I find it funny this song
has changed so much in the last two years - different
lyrics, different title ! Listen to "Cloth of Life" on "Free for good" to see what I mean. |
