The Cure could be found in a mix of holding
pattern and seemingly constant activity in 2011,
with an irregular series of worldwide performances
of the band's first three albums and a slew of
guest appearances and one-offs by Robert Smith on
his own and with other performers standing in for
either new or reissued albums. But there was also
a one-off headlining performance at the Bestival
in the U.K. that summer, resulting in the band's
first official live album since the Show and Paris
releases of 1993.
Feeling more like a souvenir than anything else,
it's above all a portrait of a band that has the
knack of handling a career-spanning catalog down
cold, something with both positive and negative
sides to it. On the one hand, besides a thankfully
clear mix that feels like a brisk soundboard
recording, there's the treat of hearing a
then-unique quartet lineup of Smith, Simon Gallup,
and Jason Cooper matched with the then-recently
returned Roger O'Donnell adding keyboards for the
first time in some years.
If it's not quite Seventeen Seconds all over
again, performances of "Play for Today" and the
inevitable "A Forest" do happily nod in that
direction. Smith himself still sounds in
astonishingly well-preserved voice, only
occasionally stepping aside from some high notes
while sounding as moodily powerful as ever on
guitar -- not to mention as half-understandable as
ever on his occasional song introductions.
On the other hand, Smith and company have been
playing this kind of set for years upon years when
it comes to general or festival audiences,
emphasizing the big hits of the first 15 years of
their career.
Out of 32 songs, literally only three of them
couldn't have appeared on either Show or Paris --
happily one of them being the underrated "The
Hungry Ghost" from 4:13 Dream -- while the
remainder of the selections leans much more toward
the hits and singles than the album cuts,
stalwarts like "Plainsong," "Push," and
"Disintegration" aside. (Though the appearance of
"The Caterpillar" is a fun surprise, having never
been played for a full-on show by the band once
since 1984.)
Bestival Live 2011 is an understandably honest
reflection of the Cure in the popular mind as
their commercial high point recedes further into
the past, but given Smith and the band's other
contemporaneous activities, it's an incomplete
portrait.
