Underworld Live Radio Show - June 11, 2008

Interestingly, the Listen Again doesn't have any of the dropouts from when the encoder crashed.

This new version of 020202 is sick.

Toobee is very lovely. Have we heard the vocal sample of that guy before? It sounds familiar.

I recognise Toobee somewhere before as well.

Has anyone been kind/skilled enough to rip the new tracks? I need Toobee on my ipod!

Reminds me of Dinner At Rods and also on Underworld Ambient Mix by Avid at around 38.40 into it.

back on target, the latest radio show and UW works in progress/studio banter are enjoyable as always. I was traveling in Brazil and missed the broadcast...love that they stream it and that those Rowdy Tortoise Sexy Riders have come through as per usual. Cheers, UW and dirts!

Mr & Mrs Christmas came from when R&K covered for John Peel on Radio 1. Like thw radio stuff they are doing now, they played a selection of songs. However, there was at least 4/5 pieces credited to a band called Mr & Mrs Christmas who i think they said toured with them in France. Very calm and ambient stuff, no-one was really sure if it was Underworld or not. Most people did assume it was.

When JAL came out, someone who had an essential mix played the song, but the artist was credited as Mr & Mrs Christmas, this despite having Karls vocals all over it. I think it was the Paul Wooford[sp?] mix that was played.

The piano intro of "Dinner at Rods" was also played at a live Japanese show as an intro to JAL. That recording was then sold as a live CD to people who went to the gig and the remaining copies sold on ebay.

It's just an alias UW used for the John Peel show, just to be a little sneaky. It was mentioned a couple other times.

I don't think there was ever any question that it was Underworld, but if you really need validation, on the John Peel show, Mr. and Mrs. Christmas were credited for "Belfort Novatel Kipper", and on the 2008-04-23 Radio Broadcast, "Belfort Novatel Kipper" was credited to Underworld. "Choppo" was that way too (one of the 2005 broadcasts).

Oh yeah, and all those Mr &Mrs Xmas song titles showed up on the Warner Chappell site under R&K.

And it's on Wikipedia, so it MUST be true.
