The Cat Empire - Australian live releases - Live @ Adelphia (2001)

Live @ Adelphia was The Cat Empire's first EP release, being sold at gigs after being recorded live in one day at Adelphia Studios, Melbourne. It was recorded and mixed by Angelo Andrianakis ("the carpenter of music" - from the back of The Sun), and mastered at Crystal Mastering. The album had two different pressings - an initial official pressing of 100 in a full-height jewel case, featuring full artwork and inserts, and a second pressing of 100 (by the band themselves) in a slimline case, featuring only the front insert. This release is now regarded as extremely rare due to the limited release of 200 copies and the pricetag it now inevitably carries.

The track listing is as follows:
1. The Conspiracy - 3:08 - F Riebl (as confirmed from The Cat Empire II demo)
2. Hchello - 5:41 - F Riebl
3. Wandering - 5:19 - F Riebl
4. The Lost Song - 5:30 - F Riebl
5. No Sense - 6:09 - F Riebl
6. The Sun - 17:06 - F Riebl (hidden track Song for the Day at 9:50 - F Riebl, O McGill)

As Live @ Adelphia is a 'black-spined' release (jewel case with a black disc holder thingo), there is no Insert - Inlay for where the disc is held.
