The Cave Comes Alive! is the first album by The Lime Spiders, released on vinyl in 1987 through Virgin Records.
There were three singles released from the album; "My Favourite Room" b/w "Blood From A Stone", "Just One Solution" b/w "Drip Out", and "Jessica" (New Version) b/w "Sparks" (Live).
"Jessica" (New Version) b/w "Sparks" (Live), and "Long Way to Go" (Live) was released on 12" single.
The 'New Version' of Jessica for the single is shorter (2:55 from 3:40), and the mix and structure has been changed, in particular, piano replaces the fuzz guitar at the start, the guitar solo is shorter, the kick drum is absent, and the song ending has been changed.
"Sparks" by Pete Townsend, is a cover of the instrumental song from The Who's "Tommy" album, and "Long Way To Go" by Michael Bruce, is a cover of the Alice Cooper song from their album "Love It To Death".
A live promotional EP; "Lime Spiders" was also released that contained three songs from the album: "Space Cadet", "Just One Solution", and "Action Woman", along with a cover of "Stone Free" by Jimi Hendrix.
