Galaxie 500's epic first year in 1988 came to a close when they delivered an incredible performance at the quintessential CBGB in New York. Almost four decades ago the gig was a benefit for a zine shop, and it now benefits record stores as it's pressed on vinyl! We're always excited for a new live album, especially one from such an integral time and place in music history - the fact that it's the much-loved Galaxie 500 on their rise between albums Today and On Fire perfectly sweetens the deal.  
- Flying Out 

After a storied first year as a band releasing and touring behind their critically acclaimed debut album Today, Galaxie 500 closed out 1988 with a quintessential performance at New York City’s famed CBGB with every bit of their signature intimacy and autumnal bombast on display. The unusual bill which also included Sonic Youth, B.A.L.L. and Unsane was a benefit show for the zine shop See Hear.

Captured here in a raw but inspired board mix by Kramer and restored and mastered from the analog source by Alan Douches at West West Side Music, CBGB 12.13.88 is a live snapshot of a Galaxie fully formed, punctuating the end of their first chapter while poised to step into their next with On Fire the following year.
