'Documents and Eye Witness' is a recording of their last gig before their initial breakup at the Electric Ballroom the original copies came with a free 12" recorded at the Notre Dame Hall and Montreux in 1979. At this point the band was rapidly moving away from the pop song structure that characterized their EMI years, into a more free form experimental group.
