Bruuuce Springsteen & the E Street Band, from the show I attended a few hours ago in Hamilton. Rocking show!! Much better than the Toronto show a few months ago, plus he left Patti at home- no disrespect, but that qualifies as an improvement for me... he busted out Kitty's Back, niiice... too bad I got shut down by security trying to shoot a little digital video of that hot middle part of Kitty;'s Back, although the audio didn't seem to concern anyone. | ||

Just discovered Johnny O'Keefe, the first Australian rock star in the late '50s. He co-wrote "Real Wild Child," also known as "Wild One," which was (much later) a hit for Iggy Pop. Also: Ruth Brown, Gino Washington, Faron Young. | ||

Miles Davis live at the O'Keefe Centre in Toronto, December 13/81- I was listening to the live '81 "We Want Miles" cd recently and wanted to revisit a couple of 1981 Miles recordings. There is a very nice recording of Detroit, and if I remember, a pretty good recording of one of the New York City shows used on "We Want Miles"- this O'Keefe gig is more subdued, but not totally watered down like some of the '82 and later recordings I've heard. Anyone else seek out Miles gigs around here? | ||

Erikto, I am always interested in anything featuring, or about, Miles Davis, although I admit that I'm not really into his music from the period you mentioned; his music from the late seventies and beyond just doesn't resonate inside me, but that's not a value judgment. I'm always one to "trumpet" the statement that the enjoyment of music is 100% subjective, so if you enjoy his stuff from that period, it is Therefore Good, and I am always glad to hear that folks are getting off on the work of my very favorite musician. I should note that a Davis record from 1983, "Star People," is a favorite of mine, although it seems to have disappeared from "domestic" CD bins, and frankly, I'm not sure it was ever released on CD here, although I know it has been available "on import." (I have a 33 of it, but I sure would like a CD of it.) You may be a John Scofield admirer, so I should mention that he is on it. Best of luck on collecting performance recordings of a guy who never did anything twice. If you are interested in further discussions about him, please re-post, and I will make it a point to respond. | ||

Hey Oldredfordette- Isn't that 1 of the best titles ever? (The Faces box- I love the Faces). I'll have to look for Floyd on American Bandstand- that was 1 of the few clips that never used to show up on boot compilations of Floyd video clips. Hi Ravine, thanks for the response! My favourite Miles era is '70-'75 when he practically retired from the stage until 1981. I have an aging tape collection which includes quite a few low generation rarities. I got the Miles from the guy who recorded it in 1981, and he's way too busy to worry about digitizing 80's Miles recordings and my copy is more than a decade old already and none of us are getting any younger, blah blah... so I sometimes copy tapes on to cdr's if I am not sure a better digital copy is likely to surface any time soon. Just added a Tom Waits show from Massey Hall in '87 recorded by another guy who wasn't exactly in a hurry to revisit his analogue 'masters'. Currently playing the Pogues in a pre-partying/ St. Patrick's vein- "Sink That Bottle", a boot c.d. from a 1990 show. | ||

John Scofield - Still Warm(1994) | ||
Ravine Member Username: Ravine Post Number: 2074 Registered: 01-2006 |
Vetalalumni, my favorite Scofield is not even Scofield's record. It is saxophonist Joe Henderson's "So Near, So Far (Musings For Miles,)" with Al Foster on drums and Dave Holland on bass. I love music dearly, and I have plenty of records that I regard with high esteem. (I have noticed that you and me seem to share affection for certain Weather Report recordings, in fact.) I've got some stuff that I swear I could scarcely live without. Miles Davis' "E.S.P." is a good example. I told you that so I could tell you this: That danged Henderson CD is absolutely sublime, to my ears, and in case you haven't heard it, I fervently recommend it to you. As for me, I am still listening to the new "McCoy Tyner Quartet" CD, and liking it a lot. | ||

Ravine, my musical selections are admittedly all over the map. Scofield's recent recordings are less appealing to me. Also listening to Ray Obiedo - The Modern World (1999). I'll look out for those artists and recordings you mentioned. What can one say about Miles - no words. Rit (and Patrice Rushen) and Kevin Eubanks will be playing at a very nice local nightclub and seeing as I've never seen them live, they might be worth checking out. We pick up many CDs at a local used CD outlet chain here in California. If they don't have a given CD in stock, they can often get it. Then of course, there is Eb$y. When I think about it, I invest far too much into music, but I enjoy it. A friend and I were discussing the various methods of digitizing (mp3, flac, ape etc...) your old vinyl, reel-to-reel, and cassettes. My collection dates back to the late 70s, even a few 8-track tapes from early 70s! A dedicated device might be best, such as this Audio Digitizer ---> http://www.cyberguys.com/templ ates/SearchDetail.asp?productI D=10029 | ||

Bob Marley & the Wailers at Maple Leaf Gardens. Digitizng another cassette, currently at "Exodus". A lot of fans weren't wild about the horn section on the late '79 tour but I really like their sound. I'm pretty sure this was recorded on a Uher reel to reel, according to a mutual pal. For some reason, Detroit is one of the few cities from where no Wailers live recordings ever surfaced, at least not when I was in with the Marley-nuts. | ||

Heading out for lunch now, It will be "Bongo Fury", Zappa and the Mothers with Captain Beefheart.... that was a good tour. The Zappa touring band circa 82 was better, but he was always a fantastic show. |
