Elastica arguably were at their peak of popularity in 1995, so it makes sense they played at Glastonbury that year. They released their debut album, simply called "Elastica," in March 1995, a few months prior to this concert. It's a great, five-star album, in my opinion. Unfortunately, it would take the band five years to release a second album, and that one was considered a disappointment, followed soon by the band disbanding.
I've noticed that when it comes to this band, just about everything they'd done is improved by boosting the volume of the lead vocals relative to the instruments. That was the case here, so I did the boosting using the audio editing program UVR5. This is a bootleg, but the sound quality is excellent, as is typical of BBC broadcasts.
This is a fairly short concert at 37 minutes. But it seems to be the complete performance.
By the way, the band played the 2000 Glastonbury Festival as well, but I've only been able to find part of it in high sound quality comparable to this. If anyone has the full thing and wants to send it to me, I would appreciate it.
