As far as I know, the only track on the Hammersmith Odeon tape that was not 
sung live was "Hammer Horror", where no attempt was made to fake it.
Especially check out "Oh England My Lionheart" and "Wuthering Heights",
where Kate's voice is barely under control and She looks about ready to
collapse. I particularly like those two songs, as they are still very well
performed, but conclusively prove that She Really Is. Human, that is.

Also, on some b******s there are some songs that have a very different feel
to them from the published versions, for example a really creepy version
of The Kick inside. 

Just my MUSD 2 worth ... time to relax with some adrenalin and soma :-).
