"You're in the right place: it's Bill." This 1993 set from London's Dominion Theatre - like Hendrix, Hicks initially found more love in the UK, after galloping up on the coattails of grunge - is historic. But how dated, even rather innocent, it all feels now; this cowboy-preacher taking potshots at power - Bush Sr, rather than Bush Jr - and Christian fundamentalism during the last decade of relative peace and quiet. It's great, sure, but very much a show of its time.
