Orange Juice - Gigography / Fansite
Hi guys
I'm in the middle of collecting all information on Orange Juice via the web and articles etc so I can build a definitive OJ website.
The site will contain biog, discography, lyrics, videos, streaming audio, articles/interviews, reviews AND a definitive list of gigs that OJ played! This has never been done as far as I know and i'd like to have a bash at it!
I've trawled the net and so far come up with this list...

If anyone can fill in the blanks or add some dates for me then i'd be most grateful!
I also plan to have unofficial bootlegs of OJ and radio-sessions streaming on my site - so far I have both Kid Jensen radio sessions, the John Peel ones, a John Peel session from 1981 with Edwyn having a chat and playing "new single" Poor Old Soul, the Mike Read session, full OJ gig at London Lyceum 1983, the three tracks from Glasgow Pavillion gig given away free on tape with What Presence ?! 7"
I have some tracks from the Stirling University gig and one from a Keele gig - would obviously love to get the rest - I know of a handful of other bootlegs floating about - any details would be great.
I'd also like to investigate on how we'd go about getting all the OJ albums put up on iTunes so peeps can buy em??? It's utterly criminal that they are out of print!!
I just want OJ to have a proper and definitive website - there's precious few things scattered about everywhere on blogs etc and it'd be great to have them in one place :-)

Hi Jamie - enjoyed tuesday night - thought 'Horse and Condor' were great; particularly the 4 part harmonies.
Found my old diaries but i wasn't very good at writing things in them.Only things i've found which aren't above are:
30/6/79 Netherbow theatre Edinburgh (with JK)
6/8/80 Carlisle (no mention of venue - with JK)
10/10/80 Night Club, Edinburgh (wi JK)
some of the gigs above are in my diary on other days - my diary could well be wrong though. I have the Glasgow tech gig as being on april 24th and the Bungalow bar gig being 8/8/80. They supported the Associates at the Marquee late Aug or early Sept.
Falling and Laughing/Moscow was recorded on 12/1/80
Blue Boy 30/4/ 80
Simply thrilled 23/9/80 mixed on the 9th
best

Hi Malc,
Thanks for these dates - don't want to be pedantic but was the Netherbow show not with you as TV Art as opposed to JK? And if so, was this the TV Art show that was recorded and put on one side of a demo tape alongside a 4-song studio demo?...
Also, the 10/10/80 gig, I've had a tape of that Josef K show for many many years, but it never had the venue's name on it... now I know! ( BTW, you should ken its 'Nite' Club !) And before people ask, no, I don't have a tape of OJ from that night!
The Bungalow Bar gig in August 80, I have a tape of JK that night - only marked as "August 1980" and also have a tape of OJ dated as 9th Aug 1980 (you joined in for an encore of Chance Meeting), can't remember where I got the OJ tape from, but I think I was told the JK tape came via your brother!! Both performances were recorded from the audience, don't suppose you know who taped them? would it have been band members recording the other band on stage?
Cheers, Alan.

Hi Al, I often read mouth-watering accounts of recording s of OJ from the early 80s (the earliest gigs) - but never get to hear them! Would it be possible to (in some form or other (apart from transcription of course!)) put them on the web somehow? That would be really amazing!
Cheers

Bob,
I have uploaded a few Orange Juice live shows to Dime a Dozen over recent months, maybe not as early as these shows though. I'll try and upload an early one or two very soon.
Keep tuning into this site in the meantime, you never know, Grace might actually be uploading or making some of these shows available as well !

Hi Alan,
many thanks! I'll check them out and also keep tuning in...I want to hear some of the old banter!

Hello.
I have an original gig poster from Nottingham Boat Club 31st March 1981.
I also confess to trying (& failing) to steal the tape of that night's gig from the mixing desk.
I see it's marked as bootlegged. If anyone has a copy I'd like to get hold of one.
I do have the Manchester 1st April 1981 show on cassette - yep, cassette!!
And another show from the same year, somewhere in Scotland as I recall - I don't know the venue.
I think the PA breaks down or something happens to a guitar.
There's a long rant from James (I think it's James) - about Gershwin - amongst other things.
I have no cassette player to listen to them on to refresh my memory.
Somewhere, on a old betamax tape, I have the 5 man line up playing "Falling & Laughing". Again there's the I can't play it issue - even if I could find it............ I don't recall the name of the show.
Steve.

Steve, if somehow there was anyway to post the second show (where the PA breaks down) on the web or for me to be able to hear it, would be a dream come true...or too true to be good (or something)!

This show was at Valentinos in Edinburgh on the 10th May 1981 (see pics on the main page for poster and ticket for this show).
It was recorded by yours truly and back in the day it was very heavily traded in tape collector circles so theres bound to be loads of copies of it out and about. I still have the master tape in my attic.
I mentioned in other posts that I have sent Grace copies of ALL the live OJ and Edwyn solo recordings I have - however, only today I got the package back through my door un-opened.... some problem with the mail system apparantly. I have let Grace know this has happened and I'll be sending them off again soon.
Included in it is the Valentinos recording (alongside a copy of the Nottingham Boat club show mentioned above). Check out my page on this site, I've uploaded a few live tracks on MP3 and I intend to do more soon. Also for those of you who may have missed it, I uploaded the full Orange Juice Glasgow Tech 17th April 1980 mixing desk recording to Dime-a-dozen a few weeks ago which has been very well received by those who have downloaded it.
Cheers
Alan

Hi Stephen,
TV show was called 'Something Else', I have mentioned this to Grace in a previous thread that it would be a great addition to the up coming boxset.
Edinburgh gig where Edwyn's guitar breaks down and James speaks about Gershwin and Veronica Lake is 10/5/81 at Valentinos. This was recorded by Alan L, see a few replies above. I know he has passed this onto Grace along with his other masters so hopefully they might be released officially some time.

My Bum Fuzz unit just arrived in California along with some plectrums with Edwin art. It took me along time to order this unit, but the twenty five year gestation period for it to be built surely eclipses my lack of urgency. Best regards all...
Thank you for the music

Thanks for that.

Shareefa Energy – ‘Reasoning With Self’ - Review
A few months ago the BBC offered a profile of new emerging female poets, ‘Women Who Spit’. Watching the short films by Jemima Foxtrot, Cecilia Knapp and Deanna Rodger, I noted with great relief that the art of poetry is alive and well. I have always been fascinated by the medium. The ability to express intricate thoughts and feelings in a few lines of words. It is the most empowering process. And empowerment through self-expression… Continue

Dear Edwyn,
Can I just thank you for your contribution to my life. From that very first shiver I got listening to Felicity on the John Peel Show to the smile I still express today when you burst into laughter half way through Consolation Prize, it's important I let you know how much your music means to me before one of us croaks it.
I was hooked instantly and bought all the singles and albums, the ten inches, 12 inches and even ripped the flexi discs off Smash Hits and Melody…
