Hommage to the vultures

So one of my favourite groups is the experimental/industrial crew Coil. In the years before frontman Jhonn Balance died in 2004, they'd been performing live regularly for only a couple of years, despite having formed in 1982 or so.

One song that received a variety of different treatments in the studio and live was Amethyst Deceivers.

I share with you versions from:

Live One (Barcelona 2000)
Live Two (Moscow 2001)
(Alas, I do not have Live Three, Bologna 2002.)
Live Four Vienna (2002) (Though two tracks on this album were recorded in Prague, AD is not one of them.) (Also seems to be currently out of print. Some Amazon.com seller wants USD 125. Blerq!)
Moon's Milk in Four Phases: Autumnal Equinox (According to Wikipedia, this is the same as the Moscow recording, but I don't think so.)
Selvaggina, Go Back Into The Woods (Jesi, Italy, 2004 - originally limited to 230 copies, it's made it to the web and is quite a good show.)
The Ape of Naples (2005)

The original version, from the 7" release of Autumnal Equinox is not the same as the Moon's Milk CD version. I'm sure at one time I had the compilation The Golden Hare With A Voice Of Silver, which collects that version, but not at this time. Again according to Wikipedia, this version will be on an upcoming reissue of Moon's Milk entitled Moon's Milk in Six Phases.

Download these versions here. (rs)

I highly highly highly recommend purchasing Coil material direct from the band here.

ETA - The previously linked zip had only 5 versions - this one includes the version from Ape of Naples.
