Great album Bluz...And yeah live kicks ass.

Eric Clapton in Springfield 1975. And it strikes me again....how unfair the common man's impression of Eric Clapton's career is - due to his official albums of the 70s - which can't be compared at all to his live performances of 1975-1978....with the excpetion of "Slowhand"

Across The Borderline - Bruce Springsteen & Jackson Browne...11/16/90 Christic Institute Benefit

wow, lots of great music in these pages!....spmeone displayed (Johnny Thunders') Heartbreakers' "D.T.K", and that set (rec. 3/77) rocks like a mother, but I'd mention the rather maligned 1984 "Live At The Lyceum." Not as consistently ferocious, but it does have fewer reruns from LAMF (& other 'usual suspects') than the half dozen or so other JT/H live albums, not to mention the 40 or so JT solo live albums. I think the long, truly harrowing, definitive take of the song "So Alone" blows the studio version out of the water. The words and vocals are already disarmingly poignent ('I just tell you what you want to hear / If I tell to much...'), but in the Lyceum version Johnny goes into a spoken interlude ('...so you're walking down the strret, and along comes this big black guy, right? He opens his pants, then takes out this big thing, and youre scared, just a kid right?')...When Johnny returns to sing the chorus he assumes the voice of the scary big guy trying to pick up the kid ('...and the guy says, "I'm so all alone...") in the tender, almost feminine, vulnerable voice used on his great acoustic album "Hurt Me". PLUS other great covers ('7 Day Weekend', 'Copy Cat') that were unrecorded at the time of the album's release. For classic live solo Thunders get the rarely mentioned (& posthumous) "In The Flesh" - a killer, surprisingly committed performance, well recorded rock 'n' roll with JT's grungier-than-the-squeal-of-a-Subway Train guitar (recorded 1987, released 2000) with the late Johnny accompanied by the late Jerry Nolan on drums, & the late Arthur Killer Kane on bass. No stoned endless between song raps, no half finished shambolic songs, just cohesive and passionate JT live - featuring two Stones covers ('Play With Fire', 'Little Queenie', and I think 'Much Rather Be With The Boys' - not sure about the last) and a delicious 'Ain't Superstitious' based on the Jeff Beck Group arrangement, & Marc Bolan's 'The Wizard'...
ALSO Stones: 'Main Offender', Between The Buttons', 'Tattoo You' and 'Bridges 2 Babylon', Lee Perry 'Arkology', the new Tim Ries 'Stones World' with all the Stones' participation.
....listening to NPR a few days back I was surprised to find myself in the middle of an interview with the legendary Howard Tate, who was sweetly, disarmingly down to earth and candid. His new album 'Blue Day' (Jon Tiven produced) sounds fine based on the snippets I heard, and asked about being MIA over 25 years Howard allowed that following his 'last' single ('74) he spent years embittered, drug-addicted, even homeless. So I've been digging his classic Verve material (1966-69) collected on the Hip-O ltd edition of "Get It While You Can" (and is that a perfectly glorious soul classic or what?) as his debut album was titled in 1967 (reissued w/ additional tracks as 'Howard Tate' in '69), his masterpiece now in mono/stereo mixes plus non-album Verve singles. Also his 1969 "Reaction", now a Koch cd, very good if not as transcendent as GIWYC, produced by Lloyd Price & Johnny Nash for Price's Turntable label in 1969; and Tate's reunion with writer/producer Jerry Ragavoy (also now a Koch cd), originally issued by Atlantic in 1972, also called "Howard Tate". And the Sundazed reissues of the four Box Tops albums (all expanded) - Alex Chilton, Memphis' Steve Winwood in terms of the fact he was 16 in 1967 when 'The Letter/Neon Rainbow' came out, and Alex turns in soulful and convincing performances of 'Whiter Shade Of Pale' (I prefer it to Procol Harum's), some stromg Bobby Womack and Penn/Oldham originals, 'I'm Your Puppet,' etc all produced by Dan Penn at American studios where so many soul classics were produced during the period. The bonus cuts on the BT cds include classic non-lp singles like 'You Keep Tightening Up On Me', Chilton's 'Come On Honey', 'Turn On A Dream', a rare Randy Newman gem, and some fine Chilton originals. The version of 'You Keep Me Hanging On' (from the Tops' 3rd, "Nonstop" which Lester Bangs raved about in Rolling Stone) is a neat arrangement based on the Vanilla Fudge's leaden hit version - Chilton's vocal is hilariously overwrought - in the middle young Alex mocks Jim Morrison intoning "...And he walked on down the hall..."

Interesting read, john r. Thanks for posting.

It was me who put that JT album up, and I completely agree. It's a great record filled with no nonsense rock'n'roll.

<<"In The Flesh">>

My copy of that record doesn't have I'd Much Rather... on it. The only JT record I remember including that song, is the Gang War disc with Wayne Kramer, which also has its moments - although Johnny sounds pretty much out of it at times - especially The Harder They Come, London Boys and the above mentioned track...they even do a version of James Brown's I'll Go Crazy

<<"Live At The Lyceum>>

Don't have that one, but definetely sounds interesting.
