Guided by Voices

In this live recording from October 20, 1997, at Bimbo's 365 Club in San Francisco, Guided by Voices performs "Ambergris," a track that holds a special place for fans as it only appears on a rare 1990s bootleg titled "Beyond The Bars and Churches." This performance comes shortly before the band released their celebrated album "Urban Outfitters Presents: Guided by Voices," which showcases their signature lo-fi sound and eclectic songwriting. At this point in their career, the band was gaining significant traction, with their cult following rapidly expanding, particularly after the release of the iconic "Bee Thousand" and "Alien Lanes." Fans were buzzing with excitement over their live shows, and this particular performance exemplifies the raw energy and commitment to art that makes Guided by Voices so beloved.
