[Unknown Venue] - [Unknown City], England
incomplete set
[01.]Swing
[02.]Phillipa Chicken
[03.]Thinking About You
[04.]What Is That You See?
[05.]I Can't
The incomplete audio recording from this gig is the oldest Radiohead live recording that's currently available. There are not many clues as far as the date is concerned, but 'Phillipa Chicken' is said to have been dropped by the time of their signing with EMI at the beginning of 1992, so late 1991 is a likely date.
This gig is notable for being the only available source for 'Swing', which appears on none of the OAF demo tapes. It is not the first song played at this gig, as the tape begins with the applause for the unknown song preceeding 'Swing'.
'I Can't' is announced as the last song, but the tape runs out towards the end of the performance.
