The Maidenlane Recordings:
a Mick Taylor tribute
Long-time Mick Taylor fan Maidenlane taped a number of Mick’s gigs on the East Coast (mainly in New York City) between November 1986 - May 1993 to preserve his own memories. Around the same time Mick Taylor lived in NYC and thus did a lot of concerts there, with his own bands or as a guest artist with other great musicians.
In our first series we first published the concerts that had never been circulated in any form. By listening to the others we discovered that many of his alternative recordings were interesting too.
In this second series we publish the “The Maidenlane ALTS” which will feature recordings that are either in better sound quality, more complete or sound differently from previous releases.
In the last series we will present the result of mixes and merges which will be similar to the Frankenstein productions (of my FP-series).
Of course, we are very grateful to Maidenlane and I also would like to thank nzb for his help (his advice, judgements and expertise have been invaluable to me).

Lone Star Café (1st show)

29th December 1986: New York City, Lone Star Cafe (1st show)
Line-up: MT (gtr, voc*)/Jon Young (voc, keyb, congas)/Wayne Hammond (bass)/Mike Cullen (dr)
01 - intro & tuning

03 - Tusks
04 - Giddy Up
05 - Red House
06 - Will It Go Round In Circles

08 - Can't You Hear Me Knocking
09 - outro

* first time MT is on the vocal in a show (“killing time” or “temporizing” while an equipment issue onstage was resolved)

We already have a recording for this show but the Maidenlane recording is better for sound and speed so I decided to use it, after some reworking: the recording is declicked, sound amplified and tracks edited.
Note a fade in/out after ‘Red House’ (tape flip) but no music is lost.

As usual I used a lot the infos taken from The Mick Taylor Complete Works Database by Nico Zentgraf: [www.nzentgraf.de]
