Necromandus - Limpet Man (Live)

Necromandus
1970s1973StudioRareLive

A live recording by Necromandus. This was recorded at The Casino in Blackpool in 1973, but wasn't released until 2005 (on the 'Live' album) and has recently been made available as part of the 2010 reissue of 'Orexis of Death'. This song was only performed live. No studio recording was ever made...or was there? Bill Branch introduces the song as being "on the album" and one of the band's favourites, but no known studio recording is known to exist or has been released. There were album outtakes - just look at 'Necrothology' - so perhaps they recorded a studio version, but the recording is missing? In 1972, they recorded several demos (only one has been found and released), so perhaps this was one of them as well? Necromandus had A LOT of songs they composed which never made it to the studio. They had enough original material for a second album (imagine if they had recorded another album?).

About Necromandus
