Oh shit.
I love that song...

Same here.
Moderate buyer's remorse.

I don't even have a turntable...

Wait -- so which tracks are the Lovells on?
(I had no idea...)

Closing text from article:

I will always be grateful for this unexpected moment, among so many that Jeanie's friendship and care for this special venue brought to us all.

The New Amsterdam EP graphics look a lot better to me now than they once did.
Not bad at all.

Yeah. I almost bought one in the early '80s -- but in a rare act of discrimination, I passed.

I had been looking forward to the weekend in Phoenix but family first, I've been planning a trip to see my daughter in Flagstaff -- was going to go that week so I could take in the show while I was down there. I realized about three weeks ago that this probably wasn't happening, so I pushed it back...

Jesus.
30 years.

I figured as much.
Oh well. Thanks.

one from Elvis Costello & the Attractions (25/7/1997). I think they mean 1977. http://www.elviscostello.info/wiki/index.php/Radio_1977-07-25_John_Peel Yeah. No doubt. I love that session. I certainly hope that this leads to an upgrade in sound quality, as all circulating sources that I've run a...

I just looked it up.
Well I'll be...

It only took me 27 years.

Is that the actual lyric?
If it is, I had no idea...

Y'all got some strange taste.

Lovely sentiments, jardine . I, too, started "paying attention" fairly early on. December 6, 1977. My brother bought My Aim Is True on his birthday. It grabbed us immediately, unequivocally. Who could have possibly imagined where the path would take us over the following 40+ years. All I c...

Excellent point.

Alright you guys, break it up.

It's 1979.
You can tell by the hair alone.

I vaguely recall that there were multiple copies of #00001 popping up back in the day. Jake Riviera, being Jake Riviera, I believe.


edit:

(I may be confusing the recollection with the Imperial Bedroom promo. I'm not sure, now. It's all becoming a big blur...)

On first glance, I thought that this thread was a Memorial.
Yikes. Sent a chill.

Very happy that you are celebrating a birthday, in the flesh, Mr. Nieve.

Truly a special musician...

Wow.
Nice setlist.

Yosemite is fairly awesome.
But, yeah...

I wouldn't bank on Costello's vocals at 10,000 feet. (I believe Gillian Welch performed "White Rabbit" somewhere at high-altitude in Colorado a few years back -- and thought better of it, after the fact.) Hate to possibly curse him and all, but he's never really been one to back down from ...

...I flew to Nashville in January 1982 to see the Almost Blue/Almost 82 show at Opryland. After having a terrible seat at the Palladium for New Years Eve (though I was still blown away by the show), I had front row center for this one... If there was an empty seat very close to yours, it was mine. ...

That "organ mix" was on the "Bunch of Stiffs" compilation. Of that much I am certain. It was the first place I heard it -- and it was a real jolt, being totally unexpected. http://fredpopdom.free.fr/images/Stiff-Records/Bunch-Of-Stiffs---Front.gif https://img.discogs.com/Xubs8ddo...

The alternate "Comedians" is wonderful.
Strings heavy.

The entire BluRay production is fantastic.
Spectacular video definition.
Great audio quality.

Perhaps the finest document of live music, ever.

Wow -- sound quality is much improved.
(And it wasn't too bad previously.)
