Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds live in Moscow, 1998

There are several excellent full length concerts by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds on YouTube. This strong 1998 set, recorded in Moscow for Russian TV, is one of the very best of them.

Numbers that The Bad Seeds normally do at the end of shows or as encores are front-loaded here, so by the the middle of this it gets pretty incendiary, with the Russian audience going (appropriately) nuts. Then the maelstrom subsides for some prettier moments, including a moving “Into My Arms” (surely every bit as great a love song as George Harrison’s “Something,” ain’t it?)

“Do You Love Me?”
“Right Red Hand”
“From Her to Eternity”
“Henry Lee”
“The Mercy Seat”
“The Weeping Song” (duet with Blixa Bargeld)
“Lime Tree Arbour”
“Deanna”
“The Ship Song”
“Into My Arms”
