Live At The Hurrah cdmred259To accompany our recent DVD release, we are pleased to announce the release of a the first ever full live album release to feature the Young Marble Giants, “Live At The Hurrah”. YMG formed in 1979 and were a three-piece from Cardiff, Wales consisting of Stuart Moxham (guitars, keyboards), his brother Phil (bass), and Alison Statton (voice). Their recording career lasted only two years but they garnered a loyal and devoted fan base that still exists to this day. They recorded one classic album, “Colossal Youth”, for Rough Trade Records and performed two short tours of the Europe and the U.S. in 1980. On their return from the U.S. tensions in the band led to their split. The name and legend of the band has continued to flourish, with websites devoted to them and releases of rare material from their back catalogue. “Live At The Hurrah” captures the band in full flight at New York’s Hurrah Club during that legendary 1980 U.S. tour, making this a unique release for all YMG fans. Amongst the tracks featured are Independent chart top ten hit “Final Days”.
