Tears For Fears

The Big Black Smoke (2lp)

This show contains the strongest material from their debut album, 'The Hurting,' as well as new material off their recent release, which was riding up the charts at the time. This concert is a testament to the new wave aesthetic embodied by Tears for Fears in the mid-'80s, and this is a showcase set of the band at near perfection. Orzabal and Smith were already press darlings in the U.K., deeply embraced by BBC Radio 1, so the audience is receptive to them and is familiar with the material. Bonus cuts here come from another Hammersmith show, this time at the less salubrious Palais - just around the corner from the Odeon recorded in 1983.
