What are you listening to right now? (VOL III)

Kate York

On vinyl:-


A big thank you to JulianH for coming over and helping with a cable change from Lingo to LP12. He then spent a couple of hours tuning my SBLs and tweaking the LP12.
Sounding sweet now.

The song The Last Carnival on this album is wonderful and touching - a simple idea that only Bruce can tell - his tribute to Danny "Billy" Federici. Here is the touching video.

Sundown, sundown
They're taking all the tents down
Where have you gone my handsome Billy?

Sundown, sundown
The carnival train's leaving town
Where are you now darling Billy?

We won't be dancing together on the high wire
Facing the lions with you at my side anymore
We won't be breathin' the smoke and the fire
On a midway

Hanging from the trapeze
My wrists waiting for your wrists
Two daredevils high up on the wall of death
You throwin' the knife that lands inches from my heart
Sundown

Moonrise, moonrise
The light that was in your eyes has gone away
Daybreak, daybreak
The thing in you that made me ache has gone to stay

We'll be riding the train without you tonight
The train that keeps on movin'
Its black smoke scorching the evening sky
A millions stars shining above us like every soul livin' and dead
Has been gathered together by a God to sing a hymn over your bones

Sun down, sun down
Empty are the fairgrounds
Where are you now handsome Billy?

Is the live verson of "Supper's Ready" better than the original?

In fact I think I prefer most of the live versions on this album to the originals. It's the drumming that really seals it for me.

Stuart,
as a fan of Coldplay (although it has taken years of counseling for me to be able to state that on public forums) I have searched for this with no success.

any leads for new purchasers ?

thanks

Jeff,
Its on the bay for loads of money.
It was was one of the first cd giveaways free with a rag over here.
I can send you a copy if you want.
Its worth having.
I would love them to do a whole unplugged album.
Was your news good news?
Stu

Is it worth a bit, I think i've got it hanging around in my cd rack somewhere?

another fine trio CD from John Taylor
