Brian Auger and the Trinity-11-7-68

Julie Driscoll w/Brian Auger & the Trinity, featuring Don Ellis
Berliner Jazztage, Philharmonie
November 7 1968,FM

Maybe the November 28th was the date of the FM broadcast?


Hey friends, this wasn´t made from a creased Master audience tape, but from a Cassette copy of a Master FM recording, somebody taped late 1968!

In my opinion a true artefact of the Beat/Jazz/1968 scene here, especially in Berlin............!

A controversal show when it was even performed as you might recognize when listening to it... Half the audience was begging for more, the other half was booing after Julie´s songs!

Don´t expext too much "Beat" stuff here, since the first part of the show is very "jazzy"!
After Julie appeared, she did a version of "Season of the Witch" emerging like a dream out of all this jamming before and later closed the show with a groundbreaking "When I was a Young Girl", a real proof of her great voice and personality!

I added a nice version of "Wheels of Fire", as a possible encore from another show, probably recorded the same day/days... (Nothing definitely known!)



Tracklist:
1. Radio announcer > Red Beans and Rice 7:44
2. Freedom Jazz Dance 8:00
3. Take Me to the Water (Low vocal mike for Julie) 5:17
4. Radio announcer > Season of the Witch 9:12
5. Shadows of You 5:41
6. When I was a Young Girl 9:38

Added possible Encore:
7. Wheels of Fire 3:39
(From unknown venue & date, probably British FBS FM Berlin Broadcast, definitely not from same show, maybe same day/days!

Total Time: 49:14


Lineup: Brian Auger: Keyboards, Julie Driscoll: vocals, Clive Thacker: drums, David Ambrose: bass, Don Ellis - e-tp (2)

This is a very nice show with no other flaws as noted above!
Enjoy this great piece of histoy!

Captain Beefheart-Amougies-10-28-69 (FLAC)

Captain Beefheart
Amougies (Belgium), Festival Actuel-October 28,1969

source: audience recording (mono) So here it is at last - Captain Beefheart's set from the last day of the Amougies festival. When I seeded the compilation of Frank Zappa's Amougies jams, I wrongly assumed the tracks featuring Zappa had all be officially released. In fact that wasn't the case. The only tracks available commercially are tracks 2 and 3, but track 6, which also features Zappa, was left off my compilation. So here it is, available for the first time ever I believe.

I've added below a few quotes from band members borrowed from the internet, to get a clearer idea of what the atmosphere was like at the festival, and for this concert in particular... I'm sure fans will enjoy the opportunity of hearing the "Captain Bullshit" incident for real.
Lastly, the usual reminder about the sound quality - the tape recorder used was way below modern standards and the sound is nowhere near "professional" quality. This reservation aside, however, this is simply an unbelievable document of a legendary festival, and so our hearfelt thanks to the taper, JJB, for recording this at the time, and for allowing me to seed it here. Bill Harkleroad: All I can remember is playing in front of thousands of people huddled together in sleeping bags at three in the morning in this huge circus tent. It's 27 degrees out, and there's frost on my strings! It was Don, Victor, Mark, me and Jeff Burchell on drums. Frank was sitting in with us, because he was supposed to be the festival MC - a difficult job when he spoke no French and most of the audience spoke no English. Having Frank play with us made me a little more nervous than normal. I think we played 5 tunes - the five tunes Jeff knew and that was it. Pretty weird flying us all the way over there and playing one gig!
Don Van Vliet: We had a good time. I don't know, what they were doing; they were throwing what looked like birds nests at us, and then one fellow out of the audience - between one of the compositions - said my name was Captain Bullshit, and I said: "well, that's all right baby, you're sitting in it." You know what I mean? I don't know if he was an American; I'm not sure, because he was using early Gary Cooper movie talk. Like "yep", things like that. I think they did well in five days and moving it from France to Belgium. But it was awfully cold... the people in the audience, I don't know how they did it. I think it was probably pretty nice for them to leave their bodies... but the amplifiers were blown out by the time we got to them, and we need clarity for that, and there wasn't any. I don't know. I hope they enjoyed it. I enjoyed it.
FZ: It was really miserable - a few tents and the people began to turn up from nowhere and they turned on the PA and that worked and they turned on the lights and they worked, and the groups actually began to play and by God they had a pop festival. And then they looked at it and realised that they had to keep on for five days. I was asked to join the festiva1. They first of all asked for the Mothers to play but there weren't any Mothers of that time, so Pierre Latt's who I had known for some time, asked me to co-host the festival, but when I arrived there I found that most of the people spoke French and they wouldn't know what the fuck I was talking about so it was useless for me to introduce the groups. So Pierre suggested that I might play with some of the groups. But I was at a great disadvantage because I didn't have my own guitar...

This tape has no note about date and venue. Calyx Gong chronology states they played in Malakoff

This tape is usually listed as 1972.
I have two versions of this tape; one is from Ottersongs and one is from GAS, both have the same
catalog number, same cover (Otter is black and red, GAS is black and yellow), same A side label
but different B labels (Artwork is included). I decided to use the GAS version (which has a bit
narrower sound image) because the other is noticeably hissier.

___________________________________________________________________

Comments from sabbathlive.com:

Sabbath played at Palasport in Bologna, Italy on February 19th, 1973. This was the 5th stop on their final European tour to support VOLUME 4. It was also the 1st of four shows in Italy, 3 of which were recorded. This was the first “known recorded” show for this leg of the tour.

Very good audience recording. This appears to be a complete show musically, but there are several cuts between songs. It sounds as if the taper was trying to conserve tape or edit out pauses between songs. The recording always seems to resume as the next song is being introduced. The quality is “good” at the very beginning, with the band sounding a bit more distant. There are also some minor defects (tape hiss, etc.) throughout, but the sound improves by the 2nd song when the taper moves fairly close to the PA. Ozzy, Bill and Tony are loud and clear, but Geezer is nearly inaudible. It’s really great to hear Bill so up front in the mix, as you can really sense the interplay between he and Iommi.

Sabbath turns in a respectably good show, but has to contend with various technical problems during the show. Ozzy’s microphone coaxes a bit of feedback from the PA at least a few times. The most major problem occurred during “War Pigs”, where it sounds like the PA system was actually cutting out. You could still hear the sound of the bands amplifiers in the distance, but Ozzy’s vocals are gone about halfway through the song. Bill and Tony make a brief attempt to bridge into an unplanned improvisation, but give up after a few minutes.

Regardless, the show continues with a fairly intense rendition of “Iron Man”. Bill takes the tempo up even faster than usual during Tony’s intro solo. You can tell that Iommi is working harder to keep up with Bill’s manic drum rolls. I know they had to have a good laugh after coming out of that exhilarating ending. This segues into “Cornucopia”, which is on the money. Ozzy isn’t quite that animated during this show, but his vocals sound good.

The show includes the earliest known rendition of “Killing Yourself To Live” with even different lyrics than what are heard on LIVE AT LAST (which was recorded a month later). What struck me about this song is how fully developed Tony’s guitar parts were even at this point. His guitar solos are nearly identical to what he would end up recording for the SABBATH BLOODY SABBATH album.

I was particularly amused by the reception that Tony Iommi got during his usual extended guitar solo section. On most nights, Tony shreds like a madman and the audiences usually reserve their biggest applause for the end. The Italian audience here was clapping and cheering after almost every section in his solo, which had to make Tony grin like a Cheshire cat! The enthusiasm of the Bologna audience really underlined the fact that this was a good show for the Sabs!

Fripp clearly says they are in town for two shows, and that this is the first of those, so this is the day before the Thanksgiving. Shakurav says he went the second night, on Thanksgiving. Toole lists his Yes was 11/24/71. This comes courtesy of the Florida Kid. He doesn't remember exact date of the gig, just that it was November 1971. So we'll go with 11/24/71. The Kid had the Academy masters for all three shows (Yes, Procol, Crimson) at one time, but he loaned out the Yes one decades ago, and can't remember to whom. Glad the Toole brought it back to life for us! Enjoy!

A very nice disc with songs recorded during the short Arnold Corns era in 1971.

The rest of the songs have been released on other discs. The sound quality is excellent, except for the Gene Vincent track. That track is only good! Some funny liner notes, and some really good information about the Arnold Corns project! A true must!
