Feel Like a Stranger w/ Branford:

22 Years Ago Today…

This bootleg is what it’s all about: great sound, great playing, great musicians, great venue – perfect. Clapton is really on point, both in his guitar playing and singing during this performance. While his ‘no snow, no show’ days were definitely over by 87′, he certainly gets his crazy fingers moving and keeps things very upbeat. Unlike so many of his peers, Clapton has survived the ups and down and has aged well – seemingly improving with age while maintaining a fresh sound. To see for yourself, enjoy this tasty 87′ bootleg and then check out his summer tour with Steve Winwood.

Warren Haynes Solo – 9/01/2007 – Bellvue, CO

As a sacrifice to the gods in hopes of a good showing from the boys at the garden tonight, let’s enjoy this Warren solo show and pray that he can take the band higher. Watching this tour unfold, it is hard to understand why Bobby is taking on so much of the singing duties while clearly incapable, all the time with the soulful, energetic, and reliable Haynes to his left. At the same time, Warren continues to play a back-seat role and seems unwilling to step up and assert himself, vocally or musically. It seems clear that he is doing this out of respect, both to Jerry and Bobby, but the musician in him should recognize that he needs to stand up and lead this band, NOW, before the tour ends and it’s too late.

Warren, it’s your time to let your soul shine.

The Band – Academy of Outtakes

In 1971, The Band took to the Academy of Music for their New Years Run. Many years later, a set of ‘outtakes’ from that run emerged in pristine, master-reel sound, though it was never officially released or circulated. This gem features cuts mostly from rehearsals and soundchecks and the like – this is a true up-close-and-personal intimate view of the Band’s 1971 sound. These outtakes are a must-have for any Band fan or classic rock collector, enjoy!
