As a matter of fact, it is stuff from
*three* different concerts. Highway Star, No No No, The Mule from Stuttgart,
Feb. 16, 1972.
Speed King, Mumbling Thing Blues and Space Truckin'
from Stuttgart, Feb. 17, 1972.
The last song, Strange Kind Of Woman, is from Speyer,
Sept. 05, 1971.
The sound quality is okay, it's audience recorded.
I mean, what do you expect from a time when tape recorders still had the
size of a toaster..... Interesting about this one is the "No No No" thing,
which is pretty rare. |

Again a rather surprisingly good sound
quality, according to the time when it was recorded. More distorted than
the Oldenburg recording
of the gig three days earlier, but therefore it's more powerful and with
a stronger mix for Big Ian and Roger. Plus this one seems to hold the complete
show. What they call "Intro" here is nothing less but that thing which we
now known as the "Danish Yodel", from
the Aarhus show.
We hear a Paicey solo here in Paint It Black and Ritchie is showing us some
very different echo-/bending-/tuning- effects on Mandrake Root, which are
stretching the song to 29:20 - excluding afterplay. (I think he also smashed
the Strat at the end - at least it sounds like that). Black Night has a rather
wild Ritchie solo, compared to what we got used to later days, and it holds
some excellent Ian/Ritchie duel. Lucille is very powerful with a great two
minute intro of Ritchie's, though Ian is pretty distorted on this one. Well,
just for sound reasons, I rate this boot a little lower than the Oldenburg
one, the performance is equally good, if not better, but it's still an

A surprisingly fresh and energetic
performance, Ian's voice in great shape, too. Why am I surprised? Well, because
of all the concerts I eye-witnessed from 1976 'til present, the 1987 ones
have been the weakest. Usually either Ian or Ritchie (or both) had a bad
day....not that night though. And the sound of this boot is pretty good too.
It's said that the recording was taken right from the mixer.
Is it to blame on the beers that I had while I'm writing
this or do I hear some backing vocals here, especially noticable on The Unwritten
Law? Hm, I wonder what that is all about... doesn't sound like Roger
though, and I doubt it's Ritchie :-)... Or is it just some new echo
loop tricks? BTW: Paicey's drum solo there is very different to what
he usually does, at least to me, but I don't understand crap about drumming....
Jon's keyboards sound a bit different, too. More
synthie-like, sometimes I'm missing that typical Hammond sound. Was that
an adjustment to the American audience or is it just my ears tonight? So,
you may wonder how Child worked out. Not too shabby, no, not at all. I'd
say it's probably one of the best later attempts. Jon is doing a great job,
so is Ritchie and Ian does it without technical cheating, he really *sings*
it again, a bit weakening in the second part, but still really acceptable.
My respect. An evidence for their "playing mood" that night are these unusual
tunes they picked up after BN and also before, during Jon's solo, which also
holds some things besides the usual. Ian's in a mood anyway, constantly refering
about the dresses and tits in the audience.... Over all, this is a good bootleg
and you won't regret spending your money on it, although you can find parts
of it on the official "Nobody's Perfect" release. |

Soundwise it's a good bootleg, starts
a bit weaker, gets better later, but the performance..... Ritchie is not
happening that night ! In the beginning he's okay, but then loses it
for some reason. Well, I guess he and Ian had some differences that
night (again) which is noticeable during Jesus Christ and also the encore,
when you hear them arguing on stage. He constantly misses his solos and shreds
around on that guitar like it was his enemy. Awfull ! On KAYBD Gillan has
to sing his solo! Can you imagine that one? He can't even get Difficult
To Cure right, fumbling around with his guitar synth.Weird noises from him
again during Space Truckin'....
And I don't know what's wrong with the encore here,
but Black Night and Smoke sound like it wasn't Ritchie playing. The
"noises" here have nothing to do with the genius we all know, even Ian
says: "I can't believe it". Was it that Ritchie had left the stage (which
he sometimes used to do) and somebody else took his guitar or was he
just refusing himself or completely lost by now? Well, it's strange though....
maybe somebody who eye-witnessed the show can
clear that up. |

There's no comments on the cover which
concert that's supposed to be. It should be from Festival Ground, St. Gallen,
Switzerland, June 26th, 1994. (My personal guess). Well, the cover shows
the band with Ritchie, but it's Satch playing. The sound quality is good
(show probably taken from a radio broadcast) and if you're one of the
twenty-seven people who liked Satch in the band, it might be okay for
you. |

"Tour De Force" is a sampler kind of
thing, if you can say that about a bootleg. It contains "Higway Star", "Smoke",
"Leo" and "Fireball" recorded 1971 and 1972 somewhere in Europe (no further
information). HS has very different key and guitar solos and it seems that
Ian had some problems remembering the lyrics... SOTW doesn't sound like a
stage performance to me. Maybe something done at a radio station, my personal
guess. Jon does some nice extra soloing. Leo seems to be something like that,
too (or a very small club). Fireball is definitely a stage recording (they
rarely played that song on stage in those days, as far as I know) but it's
a good performance. I'm very sorry not to have more information about the
sources, but even the "bootleg pope Ingo F." doesn't have that thing on his
list. The next four songs are recorded 1969 in Amsterdam. First is "Emmaretta"
followed by an early version of Speed King which was titled "Kneel and Pray"
then (not Richochet, as the cover of the CD says). Next is "Speed King",
with the final lyrics now and some VERY nice backing vocals. Man, that version
is really something! Paint It Black (instrumental) includes an extensive
and nice drum solo.
The sound quality of the whole thing is superb!! I
was surprised, especially about the 1969 recordings, since I only heard some
rather terrible boots from that era. Only Paint It Black sounds a bit hollow,
but still good.
The rest of the CD holds pieces of a concert from
Philadelphia, 1991. Yes folks, it's the JLT line-up! The songlist is "Burn",
a medley of "Black Night, Long Live Rock'n Roll and Child In Time" (NO, he
does not try to sing it, THANK GOD ! Only the first part and even the LOTS
of echo from the soundboard engineer can't help him on that one). Next song
is Perfect Strangers (man can a singer make a difference for a song....).
Last track is Lazy, a fast and heavy interpretation. The sound quality of
these recordings is acceptable. Only I wonder why there's not a single song
from the Slaves album. Did they play any on stage at all ?
The bottom line: this is a great bootleg, especially
since it holds some stuff from that Slaves line-up. If you ever get your
hands on a copy, don't hesitate! |
