'Elevated Living' includes their two celebrated hometown Manchester shows, 'Live At The Gallery Club' (1982) and 'Live At The Hacienda' (1983) and their superb show filmed for the ITV, 'Live At The Camden Palace' (1984) on both CD and DVD. The latter two shows are presented on CD for the first time. The DVD also includes an episode of Catalan TV programme Arsenal devoted entirely to the band. Broadcast in January 1986, it mixes four tracks taken from a live show at the Discoteca 666 in Barcelona from 1985 (also on CD) plus studio performances and interviews with singer\/bassist Mark Burgess and drummer John Lever. The Gallery show includes rarities 'Nathan's Phase' and 'Things I Wished I'd Said', while The Hacienda includes early versions of 'A Person Isn't Safe Anywhere These Days' under the working title of 'Men Of Steel' and 'Thursday's Child' as 'Years Ago'\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 Paper Tigers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNathan's Phase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't Fall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePleasure ; Pain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHere Today\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Shreds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUp The Down Escalator\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecond Skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMonkeyland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAs High As You Can Go\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThings I Wish I'd Said\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eView From A Hill\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaper Tigers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePleasure ; Pain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMen Of Steel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYears Ago\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Shreds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't Fall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecond Skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't Fall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntrigue In Tangiers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMonkeyland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e4Second Skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSinging Rule Britannia (While The Walls Close In)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePleasure ; Pain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReturn Of The Roughnecks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Person Isn't Safe Anywhere These Days\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Shreds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSplitting In Two\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHere Today\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThursday's Child\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaper Tigers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHere Today\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReturn Of The Roughnecks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLess Than Human\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSplitting In Two\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDon't Fall\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSinging Rule Britannia (While The Walls Close In)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHere Today\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReturn Of The Roughnecks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMonkeyland\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLess Than Human\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePleasure ; Pain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecond Skin\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHome Is Where The Heart Is\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Shreds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSplitting In Two\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUPC:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5013929184237\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLabel:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cherry Red\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRelease Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10.1.21\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e CD\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rock Band Merch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52206620016871,"sku":"44274","price":43.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/www.triathletestore.com\/products\/chameleons-elevated-living-w-dvd-ntr0-uk-music-cd","provider":"Triathlete Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
