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 the second series we publish the “Maidenlane Tapes Alts” which will feature recordings that are either in better sound quality, more complete or sound differently from previous releases.
In this last series we present the result of mixes and merges which will be similar to the Frankenstein productions (of my FP-series): by “mixing” I mean that I simultaneously record the 2 sources and by “merging” I mean that I record each source on a different channel (one for the left channel and the other for the right).
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).

The Maidenlane FRANKENSTEIN’S VERSIONS
Volume 04

Mick Taylor and the Hot Water Band
29. December 1986
NEW YORK CITY
Lone Star Café (1st show)
(merged version)

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

01 - intro & tuning (mixes)
02 - Hi-Heel Sneakers*
03 - Tusks
04 - Giddy Up
05 - Red House
06 - Will It Go Round In Circles
07 - Spanish
08 - Can't You Hear Me Knocking
* first time MT is on the vocal in a show (“killing time” or “temporizing” while an equipment issue onstage was resolved)

Merging both sources gives a very good sound so I decided to post this version.
For the Maidenlane reworking details see the ‘Maidenlane ALTS’ Vol 02.
The other version is coming from a cd-r: I chose it because it was lossless (when the others were lossy)… but the speed was very fast … from +7% to more of +11,5% (it differs by track and it fluctuates within the track) so I worked by 30 second segments.
The first track (intro & tuning) is coming from a mixing of both sources (there were too many fluctuations to work as a merge).
The 10 first seconds from ‘Will Go Round In Circles’ are from the Maidenlane source (because they were missing in my source).


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