Virginia blues-metal legends Clutch have continued their PA Tapes series with a special live recording of one of their earliest shows, exactly 30 years to the day of the gig.

PA Tapes (Live At King’s Head Inn, Norfolk, VA, 4/25/93) is the second in the series, documenting their performance to an audience of 100 in a local venue that previously hosted Red Hot Chili Peppers and blues guitar legend Stevie Ray Vaughan. Being 1993, it finds Clutch in a form much more hardcore than the groovers they’d later become, notably in the particularly rough and tumble renditions of Impetus and A Shogun Named Marcus.”We had just finished recording [debut album] Transnational Speedway League and it was due to come out in September of that year,” explains frontman Neil Fallon of the recording. “The night prior to this set, we had played in New York City at The Academy with Biohazard, Onyx, and Dog Eat Dog. We can’t recall who else was on the bill this particular night at the King’s Head Inn, though.

“We cleaned up this board tape as best we could. We also didn’t edit out the moments in-between songs because, despite the abundance of noise and the low fidelity, we think it best captures the essence of what a Clutch show was like 30 years ago.”
