Great album. Haven't listened to it for ages - remember great vocal tracks on it. Especially Smiling Faces and Shack of Scraps. Links aren't working. Give us a shout if you get them going again:) Cool
I just checked the links: the Rapidshare link worked for me, but the zshare link didn't, so I've replaced that with a Megaupload link. Hope of them works for you.
Great stuff, & nigh in impossible to find these days. Many thanks for bothering... x

[Image] Pigbag (full band history here) was a fantastic melting pot of rock, funk, jazz, and Latin styles; unfortunately they were only together for three years, 1980-83. After the breakup, Y Records released this album of odds and ends, containing seven live tracks from five shows and a remix of "Jump the Line." Most notable are the live versions of "Sunny Day" and "Papa's Got a Brand New Pigbag," and a cover of the Norman Whitfield/Barrett Strong classic "Smiling Faces (Sometimes)" which did not appear on any of Pigbag's studio albums. The full track listing is: A1 Shack of Scraps Live - Berlin Latin Quarter - 5th April 1983 A2 Smiling Faces Live - Berlin Latin Quarter - 5th April 1983 A3 Sunny Day Live - Birmingham Locarno - 17th March 1982 A4 Papa's Got a Brand New Pigbag Live - Hammersmith Palais - 16th March 1982 B1 Jump The Line Remix - Jacobs Studio - December 1982 B2 Global Terrain Live - Berlin Latin Quarter - 5th April 1983 B3 End of Ubud Live - Munich Alabama Hall - 6th April 1983 B4 Can't See for Looking Live - Tokyo Sun Plaza - July 1982 Get the vinyl rip here or here.
