Celebrate the 30th anniversary of Paris, the second of two live records documenting the band’s 1992 tour in support of their ninth album Wish. The first live album Show was released in September 1993 and reissued in July last year.
This 30th Anniversary Edition is expanded with the addition of two recently discovered previously unreleased tracks “Shake Dog Shake” and “Hot Hot Hot!!!” which now top and tail the album. The album running order has also been reconfigured accordingly.
The 14-track album was recorded over three nights at Le Zénith de Paris in October 1992 and includes the singles “Lovesong”, “Catch”, “A Letter To Elise”, “Charlotte Sometimes”, “Close To Me” and the perennial Cure live favourites “Play For Today” and "One Hundred Years".
In 1992 The Cure released Wish, a richly diverse multi-faceted guitar-driven album hailed by some as their best work to date. It spawned three fabulous hit singles, and the glorious 'Wish Tour' that followed was a worldwide sell-out. The sheer power of the shows inspired the release of two live works in 1993, the album and concert cinema film Show and the more fan-oriented Paris album.
