Elvis Costello, solo @ The Riverside, Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK 31 Jan 1986.
A nice, intimate, audience recording.
Elvis was appearing on The Tube (filmed in the nearby studios of Tyne Tees TV)
along with Billy Bragg and others in town for the 'Red Wedge Tour'.
Someone from The Riverside had the bright idea to approach these illustrious
neighbours and coax a free performance 'for the kids'.
The first to turn up was Elvis, hence his comment right at the start "I don't
know where the f@ck the others are".
Apparently, when the others did turn up they only wanted to talk politics,
which didn't go down too well.
BTW - he introduces Don't Let me be misunderstood as "a North Eastern folk song"
because it had been a hit for local boys The Animals, many moons previous.
Setlist:
- Shipbuilding
- Little Palaces
- End of the Rainbow (Richard Thompson)
- Oliver's Army
- My Youngest Son (Traditional)
- Everyday I Write the Book
- Alison
- Pump it Up
Thanks to Steve (who was there) for the above info and artwork (included).
Received in a trade some while ago,
ripped from CDR to wav by EAC (secure mode, offset correction),
encoded to flac by Trader's Little Helper, absolutely no SBEs.
Share & Enjoy.
