Richard Thompson

 

Richard Thompson with David Byrne: 03/24/92, St. Ann and the Holy Trinity, New York.

Source: Audience

Length: 75 min (1x90min)

Sound Quality: A+/A-

Setlist: A: Misunderstood / 1952 Vincent Black Lightning / I Feel So Good / Traces Of My Love / She Twists The Knife Again / She Moved Through The Fair / Turning Of The Tide / Green Back Dollars / A Walk In The Dark

B: Girls On My Mind / Tiny Town / Dirty Old Town / Road To Nowhere / Rockin' In The Free World / Who Were You Thinking Of / Ninety-Six Tears / Dirty Old Town / Psycho Killer (cuts)

Comments: "An Acoustic Evening". The sound quality is quite amazing for an audience recording, though it drops for a few songs when David Byrne is accompanied by drums, hence the A+/A- rating. Recorded in a church, so the audience was quiet between songs. There's a faint echo, too, which makes it sound really neat.

Comments: An 'Official' double CD bootleg released on Flypaper Records, to prevent the circulation of crappy, overpriced live recordings. The quality is superb. Features Danny Thompson on upright bass. My copy is 1st gen from CD. The filler is most of Live Broadcasts And Demos 1980-82.
