Memories and notes
This is the only Cardiacs concert from 1994 currently known to survive as a recording.
The surviving poster presents the concert as The Brillan Organ Christmas Party, with Frog, Pop:A.Cat:A.Petal and DJ Lavender Filter also appearing.
Three then-unreleased songs in the set later appeared on Sing to God in 1996. All three were Jon compositions and had reportedly existed in some form since at least 1992.
The unusually clear audience recording has a wide, full sound. During the banter, the band briefly tease R.E.S.
