Roger McGuinn and Chris Hillman with Marty Stuart and the Fabulous Superlatives: Sweetheart of the Rodeo 50th Anniversary Tour, being released for the first time on CD!
I saw this show in Austin in 2018, and it was one of the great concert experiences of my life. From the look on Chris Hillman's face, I think that was also true for him. (He looked genuinely surprised at each ovation. I guess he hasn't been a "rock star" in so long that he forgot what it's like.) I recall them telling stories or anecdotes between songs. For example, McGuinn introduced "The Christian Life" approximately as follows: "When we recorded this song, I didn't know what it was about. Now I know."
I hope some of the Austin performances are on the CD, but I haven't found such details on the intertubes. I have a decent audience recording of the Austin show, but I really look forward to a soundboard quality recording. As a bonus, the CD includes the tour's only performance of "Eight Miles High," from the final show in Florida. I can't wait to get my hands on this!
I recently watched an (unofficial) video compilation of the tour on YouTube - well worth seeking out. Marty and his band really lit a fire under proceedings. Clarence's guitar being the secret weapon. May well be buying this. Jules |

I've cracked and ordered the upcoming release of Pallas: Eyes In The Night 1981-1986 (6 CDs and a BluRay of a live concert). I was holding out so well, but finally gave in!
I'm tempted to get this. Love a bit of Pallas. Last year's album, The Messenger, featuring the return of Alan Reed on vocals, was a very pleasant surprise. I have it, but struggled to get into it - I seem to recall the drums sounded a bit weird. |

He'd been with the band for a couple of decades or more. |

Think it may be this originated with his wife... |

They already sold the rights to the existing Queen catalogue, for US$1.27BN, to Sony, in June, this is apparently included in the deal. So how they get any money from this is a bit of a mystery to me.

The band would still earn a few bob even if the publishing rights were sold. Jules |

Queen remix. They've autotuned the singer. I s**t you not.

As I believe I may have mentioned, this issue is not of interest to me anyway, but that takes the biscuit. |

But I just came away without a single memorable riff or melody in my head. These things sometimes grow on me. |
