This live vid from the UK back in 2003 shows PJ Harvey and her band.

Despite her American accent, PJ is British and 35 years old, if anyone cares.

I love the raw, live sound and the drumming is something else.

Turn it up loud.

Condenser mics on the guitar amps is a cool touch.


Everyone in a power trio had to "play wide." Not everyone can do that well.


** Yep - the past masters at it made it sound like there was an extra invisible member, or two.

Are there power trios today? How do they stand up against, say, Cream?


** Well, these three can lay claim to being *very* close:

Includes an 11:42 long live version of "Spoonful", in good stereo, played by family of the originals.

Use headhones, cos there is tons of live ambience .
