Cheater Slicks Live at CBGB’s 02.28.92 LP
Recorded at their second CBGB’s appearance, this set captures the band during a period of evolution in the wake of the departure of bassist Merle Allin, as they were becoming the heavy and experimental three-piece unit that they remain today. The earliest session of the four live CHEATER SLICKS albums recently released by Brooklyn’s esteemed Almost Ready Records, the sound quality on Live at CBGB’s 1992 is notably strong and clear, having been remastered from the original board tape for a dynamic presentation. It sounds great loud, preserving the wild atmosphere and nuances in the performance adequately as hits like “Destination Lonely” and “Possession” howl from the speakers. Crank it up, crack a cold one, and bask in its sweaty, loaded energy in the comfort of your living room.
