The album was recorded during the 1990 Impurity tour at the Brixton Academy, The Town & Country Club in London, the Berlin Eissporthalle and the Hamburg Sporthalle. The album was mixed at the Sawmills Studio in Cornwall.

On the album the track "A Liberal Education" has been abbreviated on "Lib Ed".

The title of the album, Raw Melody Men, is an anagram of "New Model Army". NMA did a short tour playing in small clubs "incognito" under this name prior to the big tour during which the live album was recorded.[2]

Personnel

Production

Musicians
gollark: Two librems *and* an extra battery.
gollark: Or three pinephones.
gollark: Because Apple did it.
gollark: Because modern phones are terrible for repairibility (how do you spell that) I just buy cheap used ones every year and a half or so. The PinePhone might be better for this, but getting one in the UK will probably be annoying.
gollark: Also possibly patents and stuff are involved.
