Fire Records is an independent record label headquartered in London, England, UK. Founded in the mid 80s, Fire Records has been a prominent force in the music industry for decades. They have released early records from Pulp, Teenage Fanclub, Spacemen 3, Blue Aeroplanes, and many other influential artists. In the early 90s, the label was home to notable acts such as Neutral Milk Hotel, The Lemonheads, Built to Spill, and Urge Overkill.With a rich history of discovering talent and nurturing their careers, Fire Records remains dedicated to supporting groundbreaking musicians across various genres. Their diverse roster showcases both established names and emerging talents who push boundaries and challenge conventions.

Spacemen 3, the influential English rock band formed in 1982, is known for their unique blend of psychedelic and space rock. Comprised of Jason Pierce and Peter Kember, the duo created a sound that pushed boundaries and captivated audiences with its hypnotic melodies and experimental approach.
With their debut album "Sound of Confusion" released in 1986, Spacemen 3 quickly gained recognition for their innovative soundscapes and introspective lyrics. Their subsequent albums, including "The Perfect Prescription" and "Playing With Fire," further solidified their status as pioneers in the genre.
Despite disbanding in 1991, Spacemen 3's influence continues to resonate within the music industry. Their sonic explorations have inspired countless artists across various genres, making them an enduring force in alternative music history.

Recorded in Amsterdam in 1988, the live 'Performance' documents a set from the Perfect Prescription tour; the emphasis here is on the group's loud, noisy origins - only the closing 'Feel So Good' hints at the more subdued atmospheres and textures which emerged as Spacemen 3's primary focus as they approached 'Playing With Fire'. Among the highlights: 'Take Me to the Other Side,' 'Walkin' With Jesus' and 'Come Together.'
