"I love this album. For years I had it on a tape together with Dragnet. Finally got it on CD. This album sounds stripped down, nothing fancy just great music and Mark E Smiths distinctive voice. The entire album was recorded in one day and mixed the following day. The Fall are an underrated band to come out of the punk / post-punk era of England. This album sounds just as good today as it did when I first heard it some 17 years ago. Although it is the Fall's first album it sounds remarkably mature and together. Highly recommended to those who have an open mind to music."

"eh? am i really the first person to review this album? surprising, especially considering how influential this record has been. the music of The Fall is both engaging and off-putting. the casual fan of punk or post rock will probably be confused. and that my friends, may be the point. or maybe not. you decide. take a listen. personally, Live At The Witch Trials is probably my favorite Fall record. this version is a deluxe edition which contains a ton of bonus tracks; of which the highlight is probably the inclusion of the Bingo Master's Break-Out! songs."
