I was there!!!, im right there behind the counter. That was a performance at Aaron's Record Store in LA, during the concerts of 4AD's All Virgos Are Mad.
Interesting. I assumed this was before they signed to 4AD, because it sounds so different from the recorded version. I guess this is closer to what they sent to 4AD before Ivo Watts-Russell rearranged it.
@@christopherb7134 in fact not. This is just live as can be :) HNIA's early tape work (this song included on their "Early Works" cassette) displayed bits that were in progress - but judging from these pre-4AD versions, most of these earlier songs already had that ethereally weird aura over them... Ivo and John Fryer sure helped shaping these up for "Livonia," but that ghostly sound was in HNIA already... Live, however, they seem to have totally (and deliberately so) deconstructed these songs to shy away from the album versions... There's also a similar live deconstruction of "Are You Coming Down This Weekend" elsewhere on YT.
Love the guy with the white guitar and the fender amp making crackling noises, this is a whole nother musical direction, this is my favourite track by this band,
I love the audience being totally stunned and static like "wtf is that?" You're just watching alternative legends, geeks. I'd die to have been in your place!
God, I miss Aron's records. They always had these incredible in-store shows. And their used-CD bins were filled with promo releases of new albums (even though they weren't supposed to sell promos!) that allowed a college-aged me to buy so much music on a limited budget. If I remember correctly (and maybe I don't, it was a hell of a long time ago) this was shot September 24, 1994. It was one of the first shows of the All Virgos Are Mad series of events that 4AD staged all over Los Angeles into early October.

His Name is Alive is some of the most melancholic and nostalgic music I've ever heard.
best version

What year was it?
@@cocteau14 It was the fall of 1994. I was there too. Aaron’s Records was the best!

+incongra That was Ian Masters of Pale Saints having trouble with his guitar amp. hehehe :(
Oh boy, he's being really respectful to those guys who are actually playing
I'm thinking it was intentional
It's my favorite track too. Timeless !
@@incongra I'd have loved to hear what this would have sounded like with Ian's amp working!
The greatest band ever! Thanks!!
Makes me so happy to see all the love on the comments
One of my favourite bands ever. Thanks for posting this.
Luke Rogers same here
My favorite track of HNIA. Great stuff !
el disco livonia genial gracias por compartir compadre
What a great live performance
So much young independent energy
Pure Genius
This band and album were way ahead of their time. Warren is a fucking genius!!
fucking great
I love the audience being totally stunned and static like "wtf is that?"
You're just watching alternative legends, geeks. I'd die to have been in your place!
Yasssss!
You hear their subdued album in your headphones, but then UNLEASH THE DEVIL at the show!
I saw them in San Francisco and i was like, WHAAAA?

I remember this record when it came out. Good stuff.
Wow, great find! One of my favorite songs of their catalog. Thanks for uploading!

Just discovered the slow intrusmental version available on silvermountain. such great music
Wow. This version is so different from the one on 'Livonia'.
Fuck yeah it is!
Crazy cool, right?
Like Sonic Youth
Just introduced to this band, and I'm in live with them already.
No Earthbound comments? Darn.
Because it's filled with pretentious music nerds like me
How saddening ;)
I WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT ABOUT IT
@@Sedyonoh hi
@@OL_WUZ_HEER hi 🙃
this is one of my favourite things
Thanks for posting
Thanks for the upload (and also the JK playlist in Español!). There used to be a video of this full show on YT. Sadly was removed it seems.
I heard this in Germany....great band.
Holy shit balls!! Almost forgot about Aaron's, places like this and Jabberjaw will never be replaced.
OMG- these guys n gals give me the CREEPS:
And I LOVE IT
Oh, Maynard is here! XD
ya, I prefer the rock version of HNIA now.
I demand rock reissues!
:-P
Giygas, anyone?
Y...e...a...h...
Wait- HNIA was from Indiana??!!?
it's a joke. not a funny joke. just a sort of "disbelieve us" joke
I thought from Livonia, Mich
Who sings the song on the album version? I've always wondered.
Karin Oliver.
the recorded one its more hunting !
how to outplay audience
