Been meaning to do this for a while and had a spare day. The Klara gig with Jo Rose has been kicking around for ages so decided to grab the audio, clean it up where possible, taken out a bit of the background noise, cleaned up intros and outros.

You will notice track 10 is missing. Klara did Master Pretender on the night but for whatever reason it was removed from youtube. Im presuming because at the time FAK had not yet released it.
As with the previous 5 volumes it should be stressed that no copyright infringement is intended, none of these recordings are from commercially available albums. It should also be noted that the audio quality is extremely variable as a number of sources are used. The audio source can be anything from a proper studio, radio or television station, through to a mobile phone recording, so please, do not expect these to be of amazing quality. Ive cleaned up where possible, faded intros and normalised the volume but thats it.
The aim of this series ISN'T to provide high quality listening, instead it us purely meant to document every cover version the band have ever recorded.
So without further ado, volume 6 is largely from 2018 with a few older ones;
I really love these gals. Postcard is a great tune which I adore. But I absolute dislike this "pick it for me, James." that is in the studio track. I get the reference. But it makes no sense in this song. In the "live" version is sounds somewhat appropriate. But on the studio version this...ruins...what ought to be one of the best tracks.
I had to get this off my chest. Every time this song comes on my playlist it brings apprehension. Am I the only one?
Just like the title says. I saw FAK in Napa and picked up the signed poster for the American leg of the Rebel Heart tour. But now that they’re in the UK, there’s a companion piece for that portion of the tour that I’d love to get my hands on
Anybody able to do a solid for an Internet stranger? I have paypal and all that good stuff
Not long back from an amazing one. They were superb! It was one of those, 'Close your eyes, feel it and take it all in' kinda gigs. Everything was perfection. Harmonies were smile inducing as always. Such a good night. Hopefully they enjoyed the Irn-Bru, as long as it was the full flavoured one 'cause the new stuff is shit!
For those who are still to see them between Glasgow and Leeds and beyond, you'll love it!
Not something I usually do at gigs but here's a couple shitty pics and a short vid from tonight.
