5 stars Never underestimate Pere Ubu !
This is a marvelous piece of work. It is my experience that 99.9% of all live albums are miserable, so this recording is all the more remarkable. David Thomas shines in this performance. While the cover of Iggy Pop's "I Wanna be your Dog" is a pleasant surprise, the pieces de resistance are the "Modern Dance" selections. This is a must buy for all Pere Ubu fans. After listening, truly you will wish you were there...

3 stars Pere Ubu - 'Apocalypse Now' (Thirsty Ear)
Since I've heard a few people here and there rant and rave about Pere Ubu,I thought maybe it'd be good to check the band out for myself.'Apocalypse Now' is a fourteen track disc that was recorded live at a small club,Shuba's in Chicago in front of a VERY enthusiastic crowd that took place on December 7,1991.Tunes that I dug the most were the somewhat humorous "Spontaneous Simultude",the well written "Wine Dark Sparks","Worlds In Collision" and "Non Alignment Pact".What makes Pere Ubu so specail?…
