Lush Perform on the "Up the Junction" Broadcast '92

The high-res quality of this video is beautiful! But embedding of this footage has been disabled by the poster of this clip, so follow YouTube here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=FJzKuy6vG0o&nofeather=True to see the two song movie of this performance.

As stated by the author: This is Lush on a programme called Up The Junction (broadcast in the first week of February 1992, recorded in November 1991), The Junction being the venus for the show in Cambridge.

Lush perform For Love 0:03 which was their current single from their new album Spooky plus the brilliant Sweetness And Light 3:19.

The Original Fiat 500

Check the plates...

Yep, seen at a recent auto show she's the very same 500 used by Lush on the covers of Topolino, 500 (Shake Baby Shake) discs 1 and 2, and version 1 of the video as well.

The Sound of Indie & Lush

Great site? This is an absolute treasure horde of over a dozen very rare live recordings and video (whole sets!) spanning 1988-1996 posted by Kevin of The Sound of Indie... Thanks Kevin! One recording is thought to be from Lush's second show ever, with Meriel Barham at lead vocals. The recording quality is very listenable, all in all, this trove is just about too good to be true. It's like Christmas in July...
