Is that a legit release? I've never heard of that label before. Hmmmm....
Anyway, with the BBC box set also coming out, it's going to be a feast of RT.

Yes, it's legit.
This topic has been well discussed on the RT List, and there's a loophole in the copyright Act that allows radio broadcasts to be album-ised and sold without permission, it seems.
Royalties, I'm sure, are being paid.

Thanks for that info, Chris. OK - I'll buy! Jules |

US radio broadcasts that is. Hence the recent excellent Dylan and Springsteen releases from the same label.

Looks great. Isn't that around the same time as the Small Town Romance album was recorded? Ah, just read the blurb on Amazon - seems it was the second night of two nights recorded - the first being the Small Town Romance album, which I believe RT himself doesn't like?
But having just ordered the BBC set, I doubt I'll be allowed to add this to the collection too - may have to wait a little while!

It seems to be of dubious legitimacy, as Amazon have withdrawn it "for legal reasons".  |

That must have just happened as I was just looking at it an hour ago.
Have the other Left Field Media releases disappeared too?

Intriguing. The Dylan and Springsteen releases from this label seem to still be available and indeed I have taken delivery of them from Amazon without difficulty.

I suppose it should not be too surprising that it is being held back, given RT's reluctance to the issuing of "Small Town Romance", but disappointing none the less. However,it would seem that "A Cabaret of Souls" may get a release, with or without Danny Thompson. Rejoice. http://www.richardthompson-music.com/catch_of_the_day.asp?id=1412 |

I don't think it'll be a question of it being held back - I'm thinking rather that RT will be contesting the legality of its release full stop. Jules |

STR was actually the first RT record I ever purchased, £8 s/h from Revival Records in Scarborough. It's one of the reasons I really got into Thompson's solo music. Why did he withdraw it? |

According to Patrick Humphries' "Strange Affair" (1996), STR was the compromise Joe Boyd extracted from RT at the end of his relationship with Hannibal. A later licensing deal allowed RT to insist on its deletion, vowing "to replace it with a live solo, acoustic recording more to his liking". (p228). I tend to agree there are many, many, much better performances out there, but hey, you take what you can get. |
