Yeah - haven't seen this mentioned but Psychic TV are releasing a
10 record series of psuedo bootlegs (pseudo in the fact that they
are bootlegging themselves) from studio board tapes of some of their
latest gigs.  

TThe issue I picked up was "Made in Heaven" - recorded on Dec 23
1986 at Heaven in London.  Another one is "Made in Japan" which
was recorded in Japan (and so on...).  There are 10 records in 
all as I've mentioned but the first nine will carry pieces that you
put together and send in to get the 10th album.  You can subscrive
to the series or look through your record stores for them (make sure
what you buy has the piece of paper in for the 10th record).  They
are all ltd. edition of 3000 so...

The music youask?  Well, the "Made in Heaven" does have the characteristic
Orridge wanking (improvised stupid lyrics and overloaded screaming) but
the band jams (like the Dead) on songs that sound like Velvets and
goes hog wild on the 2nd side with the scary-scary stuff.  Definitely
an interesting listen.
