TSR Podcast Nº 18: Interference Live At CBGB’s, NYC Circa 1983



In February of 2010, we released a 2xLP set from the downtown NYC outfit Interference. The set compiled an released record from 1983 with an additional six track LP of remixes from this century. To celebrate this bands music for the 18th installment of our podcast series, we are offering up a rare glimpse of the band by way of a live set from CBGB’s transfered from a cassette recording by the band’s drummer David Linton. This is one of, maybe, two live recordings of this band in known existence so let’s consider this a special occasion.
