Received this yesterday - what a lovely artefact. Only listened to Headstone and the Bull of The Woods 'bits' so far - love the uptempo 'Tried to Hide' and the Bad Seeds' 'All Night Long', which I think I actually prefer to any of the Elevators' later versions. But I was really knocked out by 'It's You' ('I Don't Ever Want to Come Down'). Someone mentioned this earlier in the thread - I wondered where it had been released before, as the box set says it emerged in the mid-80s, but I'd never heard it...?
I played 'All Night Long' and 'It's You' at my club night last night and both sounded great.
