The Cure is bombarding us with disposable product: There's
Show, the soundtrack from the film of its Detroit stop on the '92 Wish tour;
Side Show, an EP of five live tunes not included on
Show, and
Paris, a different live set recorded in Europe. Considering that much of its reputation rests on Tim Pope's visionary videos,
Show (the movie) is a dreadful bore, concentrating exclusively on the band performing, much like Pink Floyd's
Live At Pompeii. The soundtrack is just as tedious, skimping on the catchy hits ("Friday I'm in Love" is here, but not "The Love Cats") and dwelling on droning mood pieces such as "From the Edge of the Deep Green Sea."
Show is for the devoted only, while the other discs are for those devotees who actually go out in public dressed like Fat Bob.
