The Flaming Lips

The Flaming Lips were in a fascinating phase of their career around June 1993, particularly with the live recording from Raji's in Los Angeles. Just prior to this performance, they had released their album *Transmissions from the Satellite Heart* in 1993, which included the breakout hit “She Don't Use Jelly.” It’s worth noting that this live show captured the energetic spirit of a band on the cusp of a major breakthrough, as it presented some of the earliest known renditions of that very song, alongside the deep-cut “Turn It On.” There was a palpable excitement in the air; you could almost feel the band experimenting, evolving their sound, and pushing creative boundaries, which eventually became their hallmark. The energy and rawness of that concert at Raji's foreshadowed the Flaming Lips' rise to alternative rock prominence in the mid-'90s, shaping their trajectory as one of the most iconic bands in the genre.
