Analogman Posted December 8, 2016 Author Share Posted December 8, 2016 I think Chris needs an outside producer. Some of the CRB stuff is great - i.e. Rosalee. But some of it just makes no sense to me. Chris and Rich really need each other. But I have read in recent interviews that they don't even speak to each other. So I guess that is not going to happen.

Ed Harsch: May 27, 1957 – November 4, 2016Steve's Show Notes (edited from his Crowesbase post):- Gov't Mule opened- Um, it's the Joint. 'nuff said.- What can be said about this show that wasn't said before? A legendary performance in the Crowes annals. I'd put my recording up against any of the other audies, it's got a bit more dynamics than the stack one, IMO. What a finale!Rating : 9/10Quote from "boa":- Awesome closer to the fall Three Snakes and One Charm world tour. Opener of Gov't Mule just made this show that much better. 11 Covers in the 16 song repertoire, this show will live in Crowes fandom for years to come. - [boa]Mastering Notes:- Tape flip during the applause after "Dreams" - seamlessly spliced, no music lost.- Tape flip during the "Encore Break" applause - seamlessly spliced.

calvino Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Looks good - downloaded about 4 other ones, haven't had a chance to listened to any of them, yet. Did listen to Set 1 of 1995-05-17 Los Angeles, CA ('Amoricans') last night. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nalafej Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 I used to listen to that Vegas show. The amount of covers is kinda out of control, but it is a great great show for big fans. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
calvino Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 The Dreams on that 12/15/96 show sounded great --- this taper seems like an interesting person.The piano throughout Torn and Frayed is very nice, too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted December 17, 2016 Author Share Posted December 17, 2016 This one is great also: Dreams (part 1) 10/31/1996 (Beacon Theater, NYC) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

calvino Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Watched some Bad Company's Soundstage performance last night on PBS -- it was pretty painful, though I never really was much of a fan. I don't think they needed Robinson up there at all - I don' think he took one solo. He just to seemed there to fill in the sound. Their reworked version of Shooting Star was dreadful.

Their reworked version of Shooting Star was dreadful.I saw that tour, expecting that Rich would be the only guitarist and take all the solos and they'd do a bunch of Free songs. I was sorely disappointed, none of that happened. No Rich solo, the other guy who was not Mick Ralphs took all the solos and leads, not a single Free song was played and it was pretty lame. Joe Walsh with Waddy Wachtel opened the show and that was far better to me. Luckily, Rich started his solo tour soon after that and they killed it, playing their asses off with no repeats between two two-set shows in Austin and San Antonio. Rich is both and tone- and riff-meister and when he composes a good one, which is far from every song he puts out, he can knock it out of the park. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Analogman Posted January 6, 2017 Author Share Posted January 6, 2017 One of the greatest singers of all time. Rich just put up a video with Eddie on the Magpie FB page. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't know Wachtel was touring with Walsh until after the tour. I wouldn't mind seeing a Joe Walsh gig (with his current band). I saw him once - he played, solo, at a benefit type show - he was still drinking and it wasn't very good. He was funny as hell, as per usual, though. Now listening to 3/22/95, Beacon Theatre show.

calvino Posted January 6, 2017 Share Posted January 6, 2017 Lastly, why the hell do you to have extra percussionist when you have Gorman. Always bugged the hell me when the Stones had Ollie Brown in 75-77, too, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I like that sort of thing - think Marc Quinones in the The Allman Brothers. Of course, I love drums. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I like that sort of thing - think Marc Quinones in the The Allman Brothers. Of course, I love drums. Quinones added to the Allmans, mostly because it seems that Jaimoe chops dimensioned, so he picked up the slack. I don't think either of the above added much to the Crowes. Not of fan of Airto when he played with Miles in the late 60's, early 70's, either. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mountain bed Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 Watched some Bad Company's Soundstage performance last night on PBS -- it was pretty painful, though I never really was much of a fan. It's hard for me to describe - although everyone in the original lineup were really really good players, and Paul no doubt is a major talent, for some reason they never really clicked with me (outside of a few songs). This is purely just an opinion, but I kind of see Bad Company as being part of the beginnings of true Corporate Rock - the type where artistic concerns came in second to an eye for airplay in the burgeoning FM market, and massive sales. I know it most likely isn't the case, I just get the feeling there were suits in a boardroom somewhere going, "Hey - Zeppelin sales are off the charts. Now...if we could put together a 'Working Man's Zeppelin', dumb it down just a bit...throw in a bunch of dudes with pedigrees...we could ALL retire in Florida forever!". I probably failed miserably there, and if there are big fans here go ahead and bust my balls, it's cool. I should like BC more than I do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted January 7, 2017 Author Share Posted January 7, 2017 The first Bad Company album is great though. I was never all that into them either. But I just like to hear Paul sing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
remphish1 Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 This one is great also: I attended the show after this one at the beacon! However the show I went to might of had the oddest setlist ever http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/the-black-crowes/1996/beacon-theatre-new-york-ny-1bd49da4.html Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He can sing the shit out of stuff like the Faces. Eddie will be sorely missed, though. Look at the way his fingers are just dancing over the keys. He was an incredible talent all the way to the end, even with as much as he put his body through with drugs and his lifestyle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
