  This seed is my tribute to The Rat, probably the most important club in the histor
y of Boston rock. The Rathskeller, unofficially, and later, officially,  known as th
e Rat, was a bar in Kenmore square, a student neighborhood, now yuppiefied, in Bosto
n Ma.  At the street level was a bar which served food in the late 70s, and possibly
 did earlier.  In the basement, down a steep set of stairs,  was, what was probably
described on their license as a "nightclub", but in fact, was a rock 'n roll dive.
It was dark, dirty, always smelled, was hot in the summer, cold in the winter and ha
d the most disgusting Men's  Room it was my misfortune to ever use. I was told that
the Ladies Room was just as bad and can only marvel at the courage and/or suffering
of the women that frequented the Rat. There was always a hint of danger in the air a
t the club. The place was owned by a former bouncer and he gave his minions free rei
n and they always seemed to be big, thuggish guys. One of my most memorable nights a
t the Rat was when the Real Kids, on stage, got into a fight with the bouncers! The
waitresses, in my memory, were also a tough and surly lot, not adverse to cursing cu
stomers out.
  Why would anybody patronize such an unpleasant dump?  Because of music of course!
 The place began presenting music in the 60s and a friend of mine heard Barry & The
Remains and the Lost there in 65 or 66.  The place began a long slow decline when th
e hippie bands and the "Bosstown" sound became popular and by the mid 70s it was onl
y booking local, hard rock cover bands.  When I returned to Boston in 76, they were
featuring mostly local bands playing original material, but most of the bands were g
eneric, mainstream hard rock.  Willie Alexander and Third Rail and some others were
exceptions, but generally the Boston local music scene, like the national scene, was
 in the artistic doldrums.  Of course in 76, there was a vibrant local scene in New
York with all kinds of bands that were supposed to be great but hadn't recorded, but
 you could read about them in the Village Voice.  They had odd names like; Ramones,
Television, Blondie, Heartbreakers etc etc.  Obscure bands like that would never get
 to Boston; but, think again; in 76 some prescient person at The Rat began booking N
YC bands on double bills with the local bands.
  One of the NYC bands they brought to Boston was the Talking Heads.  I had first he
ard them on July 4, 1976, when my college  buddy, Shane and I celebrated the  Bicent
ennial at CBGB's.  From, literally, the first tune- "Artists Only" (of course), I wa
s a complete fan and thought that they were going to be a great and important band.
 Of course, I never imagined that they would be popular.  When, in October 76, I saw
 an ad listing them for a two night stint at the Rat opening for a local Bad Company
 sound alike, I made sure I was there for both nights.  I was even more impressed th
an I was at CBGB's, but most of the locals were much less impressed.  The Heads didn
't go over at all.  Part of the problem might have been that they were announced as
being from NYC and the Boston/NYC rivalry was just as fierce then as it is now.  Bos
tonians were not going to let any square looking NYC nerd with a squeaky voice tell
them how to play rock n roll.  After the first tune of the first Heads set, a large
portion of the audience left to drink elswhere or get high and came back for the loc
al Bad Company clones.  This pattern repeated itself when the Heads began their seco
nd set. Some of those too drunk or lazy to leave, contented themselves with occassio
nally yelling, "You Suck!" or "Go back to New York".  The general consensus on the l
ocal scene was that they sucked in the worst way and were not "rockin'" at all.  A "
critic" in the local underground paper wrote that he should have stayed home and rea
d a book, which I don't believe he meant as a brag about his literacy.
  Shockingly, and it's a tribute to that unknown booker at the Rat and the courage o
f the Heads,  they were booked again three months later in January 77.  I was so ena
mored of the band and worried that they might never record, I decided to tape them.
 I had taped a lot of shows in the early 70s but stopped around 75 when I began havi
ng so much fun at the shows that I couldn't or didn't  want to deal with taping. I h
ad a fairly good cassette recorder at the time, make now forgotten,  and a decent mi
c that I bought second hand for $10.  I never knew what the make of the mic was beca
use the name plate had fallen off years before I got it.  On one night of the Heads
gig, I sat at a front table right behind the dance floor, which I remember being emp
ty while the Heads played.  The other night I sat at a table near the back of the mu
sic area and, consequently picked up a lot of chatter. I set the mic down right on t
he table and let it rip. I had decided that I wasn't going to let taping interfere w
ith having a good time, so I didn't sit silently or ask people  with me or those nea
r me to be quiet.  It wouldn't have done any good anyway!  I don't know who a lot of
 the people you can hear are.  I might not have known then.  At one point, a waitres
s asked me, "  What's that?".  I said, "A microphone."  She just nodded.  Probably,
by the standards of misbehavior at the Rat, taping was no big deal.
  The Jan 77 gig was two nights, with the Heads once again opening for, as I remembe
r, a local Bowie imitation band, the name of which is forgotten by me and probably e
veryone else except its members.  The local response, this time, while not being, wa
rm, was not especially hostile.  There was a small cadre of people there to hear the
 Heads and they made themselves heard.  Jerry Harrison was sitting in the audience b
oth nights and they called him onstage to play on the second night.  It might be his
 first public performance with the band. The crowd was the usual Rat denizens; clubb
ers out for a night of partying with a musical accompaniment and it didn't much matt
er what it was as long as they could dance, fans and friends of the other band,  loc
al rock scenesters and the usual flotsam and jetsam that you find in any nightclub.
  I think these tapes capture the atmosphere of the Rat, the way I remember it.  You
 can hear the music buffs discussing bands, the bored and uninterested chatting, guy
s trying to pick up girls, drunks yelling, speed freak ranting and above it all, one
 of the best, most unique bands ever; just playing their music whether people were l
istening or not.  It was an exciting time to be listening to the Heads, an exciting
time for rock and the Rat was an exciting place to be in January 77.  Hope these tap
es make you all feel a little bit of it.

The Warner Brothers Music Show^MThroughout the latter half of 1978 and the early mon

, Warner Brothers (Sire's parent company) taped a Talking Heads show at the Agora in
 Cleveland on March 15th 1979. Entitled 'Talking Heads Live On Tour' (Warner Brother

their third album Fear Of Music, and one song, 'Electricity', later appeared on that
 album as 'Drugs'. ^MThe rest of the live album consisted of songs from the first tw

comments:
  this concert may be from October, but it sounds like it's from July,
maybe because it's almost always sunny and warm (if not hot) in L.A.
as many go there for that (and what comes with it) as go there to make
it in the movies. Talking Heads is one of those bands that makes me think
of dog day weather, even though the only show I saw of this delightfully
fun tour was a few weeks after this one. It's a whole show too, as at last
look none of this show is included in officially released material. I
already posted the New York show (minus one track which was officially
released) so now we can have a Talking Heads in N.Y. and L.A. party.
the Boston part of the story comes a little later. (worth the wait).
do not sell this recording.
trade freely and losslessly.

This is a decent quality audience recording of a great show from the "Stop Making Se

 to be the most raucous crowd I have ever saw at Red Rocks. It was a sold-out sea of
 dancing people that night - the hottest ticket that summer for sure. The place was
wild from start to finish.

Normally I reserve my seeds for higher quality recordings but this one has "mojo". I
t has a couple of early level glitches and could be cleaner,
but overall - not too bad for the place and time, and if you love the Heads you
should grab it. Burning down the house, I would have to say, did happen.

Cecil Taylor Previewed. Uncompromising Artist Presents New Jazz

by Gary Giddins:

Cecil Taylor, pianist, composer, poet, and all-around musical guru for the jazz advance guard, wil
l be on campus February 6, 7, 8. Leonard Feather has written of him, "The freedom, complexity, har
monic innovation and emotional brilliance of Taylor's playing have established him as one of the t
ruly original minds in American music... Taylor's fast and intricately structured lines, almost pe
rcussive in their intensity, have had a stirring effect on the new horn techniques of the 60's...
A lack of acceptance by some musicians and critics and pitifully infrequent opportunities to recor
d, have kept Taylor's reputation and following limited to a small but devoted group of admirers.

That's not the half of it. Taylor has been screwed royally by club owners who were more interested
 in selling drinks then providing a free rein for artistic expression. Record companies have used
him for a tax loss and don't bother to distribute. In this, Taylor is not unique. On the contrary,
 there are very few jazz musicians who have not suffered under a similar strain of capitalism. The
 new jazz is the bastard child of American music; it can't make it on a popular music level and it
 is not accepted by the classical elitists. Taylor, however, is an uncompromising artist who puts
his craft first and refuses to kiss the asses of the money grabbing critics and hucksuckers who co
ntrol the (gasp) "music business." Unfortunately, the payoff at times was one major gig a year sup
plemented by working at Macy's in the afternoons.

And now-- twelve years after his first major date in New York-- the critics and the public who cri
ticized him as being a charlatan and anti-jazz are coming around. Cecil Taylor is a virtuoso piani
st who unlike many of his imitators-- some of whom are better known than he-- can express on the k
eys what's happening in his head. And that's what jazz is about-- expression and communication. Th
is doesn't mean that he is any more accepted by the public. Last August, he despaired as to whethe
r he would ever record again. Those who have heard him, know that if in a hundred years some histo
rian asks whether people in the 20th century could communicate, Cecil and some other musicians lik
e him will serve as one of the new affirmative answers.

Previously our ideas of time and space have been negated in favor of a collective sound emanating
from individual musicians surrendering their individuality to a group feeling. This music is not i
ntended for background music; it is a total music.

During their stay here, the Cecil Taylor Unit will be available to the entire campus for discussio
n, etc. Thursday at 4:00 p.m. there will be a lecture-discussion. Friday at 8:00 p.m. there will b
e a drum workshop and at 10 p.m. a poetry reading by Taylor. All of these events will be in the So
uth Lounge. The concert is in Roberts, Saturday night at 8:00 p.m.

Open up your mind and give them some of your time. They're worth listening to.

Controversial Concert Defended

by Molly McGuire:

A new breed of music was introduced to Grinnell last weekend in the form of the Cecil Taylor Unit,
 an avant-guarde jazz quartet. If nothing else, the concert became a topic of controversy on campu
s as the music was foreign and incomprehensible to the ears of most of the audience. Arguments rag
ed over the quality or value of the music itself as well as the advisability of bringing this type
 of music to Grinnell.

Comments ranged from the facetious Bandstand favorite, "Oh, it didn't have a very good beat and I
couldn't dance to it," to the popular, "It stunk!" Those who liked it seemed overpowered by it-- t
hey were completely carried away emotionally: "I was intoxicated by it," was one of the more extre
me comments on the positive side.

Generally, however, there seemed to be unfavorable response from the campus. On this note, the S&B
 talked to Garry Giddins and Lee Shamberg of the Social Co-ordinating Committee to let them explai
n their reasons for bringing in Cecil Taylor, and also to let them comment on the student reaction
.

Their reason for presenting a concert of this type was two-fold. First, Giddins felt that "any con
troversy started in this conservative melange of apathy and lethargy would be beneficial." Shamber
g added, "The concert was a result of a continuous attempt to make the concerts program an organic
 part of the education process. Education involves a challenge to one's standards and preconceptio
ns."

Secondly, they wanted to expose students to music they may never listen to on their own, or even r
ealize existed. "The importance of the concert," stressed giddins, "was that the students got a ch
ance to hear this music, not whether they liked it or disliked it. One of my hopes in bringing in
Taylor was that people would be moved to investigate the music more fully on their own."

Those criticizing the quality of the music itself were severely chided by Giddins and Shamberg. Th
ey argued that to criticize from a position of total ignorance is "indefensible." Instead of judgi
ng the music by the standards of the familiar Western music, they stressed that one must realize t
hat Taylor is working in a different medium, that of an Afro-American culture. Giddins stressed, "
Whatever similarities there are between Taylor and Mozart are outweighed by similarities between T
aylor and Ellington."

Giddins was particularly disturbed by the fact that so much of the audience left before and during
 intermission. He said that if they would have stayed longer they very possibly would have ended u
p enjoying it (which is what did happen in several cases.) He said that Taylor wasn't playing for
those who left, but for those who stayed long enough to enjoy listening to the music as much as he
 did playing it.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------

Gary Giddins in an interview dated March 13, 2003:

Q:  In your role as Concerts Chairman at Grinnell, you brought Cecil Taylor to perform there. I un
derstand you may have taken some heat for that?

A:  I went home to New York on vacation, and while there I wanted to get in touch with Taylor and
ask him to play Grinnell. Somebody gave me his number, I phoned him, and he invited me up to the C
anal Street loft he lived in during the sixties. He was very nice, quiet, and I was quite comforta
ble with him. We sat around the piano and discussed what we both wanted out of his appearance at G
rinnell. He wanted to read his poetry, which I told him we could work in, and we went back and for
th, sharing ideas. I remember asking him if I could write out a preliminary contract, and asked if
 he had any paper. He put his finger on a cocktail napkin that was on the piano that had like a we
t ring from a glass on it, and he pushed it toward me. So, I wrote out this little contract on a w
et cocktail napkin. I brought the napkin back to Grinnell and gave it to the faculty liaison -- wh
o thought I was nuts -- and who informed me that it wasn't exactly legal. I told her it was just a
 preliminary agreement and that she should get something on paper, so they wrote out a real contra
ct, which Taylor signed, and he came to the school. It was an amazing week at Grinnell. He definit
ely gave the students something to think about. He was antagonistic in some respects, and many peo
ple just couldn't accept what he was playing, some even thought he was a charlatan. During a panel
 discussion he and I did together he said something that I will never forget, which is that a musi
cian prepares and a listener should prepare too, which offended a lot of people. His drummer Andre
w Cyrille did an unbelievable solo drum presentation in which he demonstrated a lot of classic dru
m styles, and showed how they were put together. It was a brilliant demonstration that lasted an h
our and was one of the most exciting things I have ever seen of that sort.
    Then there was the Saturday night concert by his great quartet, with Cyrille and saxophonists
Jimmy Lyons and Sam Rivers. Not surprisingly, there were lots of walkouts, but some people were re
ally knocked out, unintimidated by his music or by him. Even now, when I run into former classmate
s, they often bring up that amazing Cecil Taylor concert. A faculty member, a wonderful violinist
and teacher named Peter Marsh, who led the Lenox String Quartet, had asked to borrow some of Cecil
's albums, and he fell in love with Unit Structures. So he decided to have a faculty party for the
 musicians after the concert. I walked in with Cecil and I remember Mrs. Marsh coming over and rav
ing to him about the concert, especially the middle part, which was the piano solo, comparing it t
o Ravel's Sonantine. Cecil asked her why she brought up Ravel and not Ellington or Bud Powell. A r
eal conversation stopper.
    One of my most vivid memories of his time at Grinnell is of Cecil feeding quarters into a loun
ge jukebox, and then sitting down at the piano and playing along with Aretha Franklin records. He
just basically backed her up for about half an hour -- not in a manner that she would necessarily
have understood, maybe, but it was an incredible experience. He really is something.

Q:  You had some time alone with him during this week?

A:  Yes, at one point during a dorm party he asked me what albums I had in my room, so I invited h
im to come check out my collection. I was really proud of my super hip jazz collection, which he l
ooked at with complete disdain and asked me, "Got any James Brown?" I was crushed. I also remember
 he was carrying Peter Gay's Weimar Culture with him; we had a conversation about it and I immedia
tely went out and bought the book, and became a great admirer of Peter Gay. I've read several of h
is books. I guess that's another example of something I've received from Cecil Taylor over the yea
rs.

Also, Cecil knew about the fact that Louis Sullivan -- the nineteenth century architect who design
ed Penn Station and Columbia University in New York -- designed a building in Grinnell, Iowa that
became the Powasheek County Bank. He was dying to see this bank, which is a beautifully designed,
elegant two-story square building. We walked into the bank and Cecil went up to the cashier and as
ked her about the building, which she knew nothing about. He tried to talk to her about Louis Sull
ivan but she was clearly puzzled by the whole encounter. We left the building and walked through t
own, and he told me he was looking forward to getting back to New York because he had plans to see
 Betty Carter, who was going to be singing at Judson Hall, which later became Cami Hall. He was su
rprised that I knew who she was because, during the sixties, she had pretty much disappeared from
view and hadn't recorded in ages. But I had the album with Ray Charles, and when I mentioned that,
 he said, "Oh, she's come a long way since then." When I got back to New York, she was doing anoth
er concert at Judson Hall and I went to see her, which intensified my own interest in Betty Carter
 -- again, thanks to Cecil. Everything about that week with Cecil Taylor was monumental to me. It
was a great education.

Q:  And it led to an attempt by the campus to impeach you as Concerts Chairman?

A:  Ah, yes. The minute Cecil left campus, impeachment proceedings were brought against me for squ
andering student funds on a "charlatan." They actually had an impeachment meeting and a vote, whic
h I was not allowed to attend, even to defend myself. There were people on the committee who did d
efend me, however. I remember sitting in the student union -- it was called The Forum -- waiting t
o find out whether or not I had been impeached, and the editor of the school paper, who hated me a
nd all the things I was doing, was really enjoying my discomfort. He made nasty remarks, and I was
 sitting there, fighting back tears I was so freaked by all of this. Then a bunch of people came r
unning in saying that, like Andrew Johnson, I had maintained my position by a vote, that I had not
 been impeached. So I stayed on and brought Bobby Hutcherson with Harold Land, Ted Curson with Nic
k Brignola and Eddie Harris, Ellington, Armstrong, B.B. King, oh, we had fun.

The next year, Cecil was hired at Antioch College and people at Grinnell started questioning thems
elves -- maybe he wasn't a "charlatan" after all if Antioch wanted him. Then he went to Wisconsin
and developed a near-legendary presence in the Midwest because of his teaching, and suddenly I hea
rd people at Grinnell actually boasting about having him first. When I went to a campus reunion in
 the eighties, everybody was going on and on about all the concerts I had produced, and they espec
ially remembered Louis Armstrong, Duke Ellington and Cecil Taylor. The same people who walked out
of the concert were now nostalgic about it.

Notes:

Eric Taylor
Hollandsche Rading - the Hertenkamp
The Netherlands
october 20 2003

Another great songwriter I registrated "In the Woods"; even a couple of times. This n
ight Eric Taylor played a double bill with the great performer Rod Picott. I edited t
he recording 'cause the stories between the songs were too full with red wine in my o
pinion. It contains a 10:58 min. stunning version of "Dean Moriarty" and it's always
nice to see the Douma brothers on stage when Eric is in the Netherlands.

Line up:
Eric Taylor:    vocals, acoustic guitar
Susan Lindfors: backing vocals
Mr. Jones:      backing vocals
Jelle Douma:    backing vocals

19 Don't Let A Thief Steal Into Your Heart ("Traveling Folk" Radio Scotland, August 20, 1987)

I recently transferred this for a trade and thought while I was at it I'd share it with all my dim
e friends.  The tape came from an italian trader back in late 80's or early 90's.  Richard played
4 solo shows at the Assembly Rooms between 8/23-8/28 and I'm not sure which date(s) this is from.
 Listening to this show back in the day on cassette I was always slightly annoyed by the somewhat
intrusive German DJ.  Not only did he speak between songs but on at least one occasion a song woul
d fade out and he would talk and then it would fade back in.
With the transfer to cd I was able to edit out the intrusive parts that were there for no good rea
son, I kept all the DJ chatter that was translating something Richard was saying on stage during R
ichard's stage banter and have edited out the parts that were between songs with nothing in the ba
ck ground.  So, there is no music or stage banter edited out.

The splice in Two Left Feet is due to a song fade at which point the DJ interrupted, then a fade b
ack in, I simply edited out the DJ speaking and the only music missing is what was missing on the
actual broadcast.
The splice during Pharoah is due a commercial inserted in the middle of the song, in both cases th
ere is a quick fade out and fade back in as in the original broadcast.
Withered And Died is partial due to a fade out and then a commercial was played, the commercial ha
s been edited out.

As a bonus track I've added Richard's performance on the "Traveling Folk" show on Radio Scotland f
rom August 20.

Sample attached....

It's been a while since I've uploaded anything, so I thought I'd share a '99 RT I l
isten to when I'm in the mood for a 99 show.

This is a sweet sounding soundboard recording, albeit one with a slight quirk or tw
o: there's a very, very slight echo that crops up occasionally (it makes the backgr
ound vocals better than they were live on When a Spell is Broken, imo) and the volu
me level changes a bit once or twice. I have not touched it.

Notes:
This is real sweet audience recording of RT's first visit to the
Bethlehem Music Festival and he really seemed to enjoy his time here.
The gig was played in Foy Hall on the campus of Moravian College, a very
small indoor venue of about 450 people right in the middle of the festival,
basically a lecture hall with wonderful acoustics. The small crowd was
extremely quiet and respectful, waiting for the last bit of resonance from
each last note before applauding, but doing so loudly when the time was right.
Although RT's between-song-banter is a bit distant sounding, the sound of his
acoustic really filled the hall up nicely...it was LOUD...and I was happy!

NOTES:
This is a brilliant performance and an excellent sounding recording. A real gem.
I have seen Richard Thompson perform many times, but this show is at the top of
my list. The sound in the hall was perfect, the setlist was good, there was lots
of energy in the renditions and Richard was in good humor with the song
introdctions.

This is a great recording with only 2 minor flaws. The show started abruptly
(an opening act was expected), so the first few seconds of the "Sumer is Icumen
In" is missing and it takes 20 seconds or so for the audio to get to a state of
goodness. Also, for some reason the tape paused for a few seconds at the start
of the first encore and so a small part of the introduction to the 1190 French
song is missing. These issues and not very noticable and overall this is a great
listen.

The sections that were spliced in were missing from the station reel. That reel started with
 the stage intro and the encore break was cut out completely. For that reason the station re

Another fat Peter Tosh SBD.

Disc 2 begins with a band member announcing "part two," and the tape fades out durin
g the band introductions in the middle of Legalize It.  This could be the first part
 of Set II only, or almost the entire encore.  My guess is, it's the whole show.  Ma
ny Peter Tosh concerts around this time ran about 1 hour 20 minutes and covered this
 material, more or less, in with Legalize It as the encore.

The accompanying scan is of the tape cover.  Because the WLIR DJ intro was missing f
rom my source, and Legalize It fades, instead of cuts, and because the tape cover sa
ys "tape flip" in Bush Doctor (mislabelled as Legalize It), but I didn't hear it, it
's likely that someone took a crack at cleaning this transfer up before I got to it.

Enjoy.

Review by OSWALD From Hotwacks:
Billed as home studio recordings from 1965-1975, this set is a pretty monumental
collection of Townsend's demos. The nature of the material makes it impossible to
tell how comprehensive it is, but a quick glance imparts that this collection very
nicely supercedes a series of releases, both underground and sanctioned.
As any Who fan knows, Townsend's home demos make for fascinating listening -- many of
the arrangements, licks, and even vocal phrasing is already present on these rougher
takes. Add to that a sort of home-made funkiness (think a more pissed-off, English
version of the Band), and you have a set of recordings that stack up very well
against their more familiar later, full-band versions. Townsend has leaked out this
sort of stuff on the SCOOP collections for some time, but those have always been
piecemeal affairs -- one track from here, another from ten years later,
synth instrumentals next to unreleased songs. This collection is wonderfully focused,
chronological, and in pretty strong fidelity. The three Who benchmarks, TOMMY,
WHO'S NEXT, and QUADROPHENIA, are well represented, as are a host of popular album
and singles tracks in sketchbook form. The thrill of having these cuts in one place
and in a reasonable order is indescribable. The drawbacks to this set are few --
sound quality is pretty consistant, the material is endlessly engaging. My one
complaint is the packaging. A cool mini-poster of rare foreign EP sleeves is killer,
but there are no notes to put the cuts into context. That being said, it's pretty
obvious where this stuff comes from, and it should be of major interest to Who buffs
the world over. Pete's demo of "Empty Glass" might be the most intense thing he ever
laid down...

Review by Matt Whipple from Hypertext Who:
This is another beautiful package from HIWATT! A super 5 CD set
complete with a 9.5" x 14" double-sided poster. The tracks are
all PT demos presented in chronological order of when they were recorded.
The back insert states: "ALL TRACKS RECORDED 1965-1975 BY PETE TOWNSHEND
IN HIS HOME STUDIOS: OLD CHURCH STREET, CHELSEA AND TWICKENHAM".
Although I doubt that any of the tracks for Who Are You were recorded
prior to 1975. The majority of these tracks were taken from Pete's Scoop series,
The Lifehouse Chronicles and Pete's website. Disc 1 actually has a 26th song
not listed on the disc - Accidents (this was written by Pete for the
Thunderclap Newman release - w. Speedy Keene and a very young Jimmy McCollough
a lead guitarist). On Disc 2, last 2 seconds of track 3  starts to play Jaguar.
Disc 5, Track 18 - should be No Road Romance NOT No Road Running as stated on
the back scan. The others are from various bootlegs still not officially released.
An initial listen reveals excellent sound quality.

In the early 90s, I got to talk to a customer in the bookstore I was working at. He
told me that he'd recorded this show,
but hadn't seen the tape since shortly after the fact. After some months of nagging,
 he came up with a 90 minute tape.
Little did I realize, that show had never seen the light of day ...
The mists of time somehow obscure the facts, but I think he recorded it on his brand
new Uher close to the speakers and
I can't remember why I never came around to get the rest of this (obviously incomple
te) recording, if it ever existed.
He was a strange guy, (a lawyer now!) I have long lost contact since, can't even rem
ember his name.
Anyway, here it is. Hope you'll like it, I think it's above standard for the time.
I didn't fiddle with the sound at all, here's exactly what I got back then. I gave t
his to a couple of friends after I transferred it,
but I think it's still a rather rare and obscure item.
To end the story, some years ago, legendary german Radio & TV host Manfred Sexauer w
as an infrequent customer at my own bookstore.
I made a copy for him as a gift and he was really moved when I handed it out to him

This upload is in response to some requests for more Trip Shakespeare on Dime. I was
 happy to see some live Trip lately.   Very cool and props to those uploaders.  A tr
uly incredible live band, with a weatlh of great songs, Trip Shakespeare also had a
load of songs they only ever performed live in concert.  This torrent is a 2 disc co
mpilation of live rarities that I put together back in 1998.  Most of the tunes are
non-album tracks, but there are also live performances of rare Trip B-sides and earl
y versions (w/ diff.  lyrics) or some Trip album cuts.  Many of the recordings come
from private soundboards (originally a DAT recorder plugged into the mixing desk and
 then subsequently copied to analog tape and from there to CD).  Some of it is relat
ively low generation. There are also some radio broadcast tracks as well as a few au
dience recordings. Sound varies, but most of it is pretty good quality.   I hope to
put up some more rare Trip Shakespeare in the coming week.  Enjoy!\

There have been other True Believers reunions, but this, I believe, was the first and only(?) with one of the band's
full early line-ups, reunited to celebrate the release of Rykodisc's Hard Road compiling the band's first and until t
hen "lost" second album.

the players this night were:
Alejandro Escovedo (vocals, guitar)
Javier Escovedo (guitar, vocals)
Jon Dee Graham (guitar, vocals)
Denny DeGorio (bass)
Ray Washam (drums)

The show was the centerpiece of SXSW 1994 and the band played a couple of songs at the awards show the night before,
but this was the proper one-off gig. I was only just becoming a major Alejandro fan, but knew enough to recognize thi
s performance as something special and I was not disappointed. Turns out my future Brisket Brother, BW, was also reco
rding the show standing not a few feet away from me, but we didn't know each other at the time. Later we'd join force
s on a host of Alejandro projects, notably More Miles Than Money.

I was standing perhaps 10-15 feet away from one stack of a very loud PA and when I turn off axis, you'll notice. But
for the most part the recording is, I think, quite good. Sample provided.
