I was thinking about this this morning while listening to Technique. It appears that all NO lps prior to this had their songs forged live. PC&L seemed to fook it up. Low-Life is perfect in terms of keeping the songs as good as they were live except for The Perfect Abortion. Brotherhood too slapped together and only two songs from that set ever sounded good live--Paradise and AIIWIW. Technique's spawn were never played live before they hit the studio. YET this lp sounds flawless and could arguably be cnsidered their best studio werk although the songs IMHO do not match the masterpieces of the past.
SO now we will have another lp of studio born songs. Are you concerned?
