comments:
the 91 set was part of Catfish Rising Promo Week of Tull in the U.S.,
which also included an appearance at Electric Lady Studio in NYC, one on
Late Night with David Letterman TV, and another on "Rockline" radio,
all including live music. WBCN played lots of Tull up to around this time
so it was a fitting place to do this promo set.
Call it my Sunday Tull, actually it's Saturday but this is good
soundtrack for a "spot of Sunday tea" as they say in the U.K. on Sunday
or any day. this is two wbcn appearances I recorded with the
"Tull Trio". the second was in 92 with the same cast of clowns.
This is the miniature Tull tour. they couldn't afford to drag
Andy and Doane along for these. at some point in 91 interview they played
"this is not love" from the Catfish Rising album, that song is not included
in here but all the interview and live music is (this edit does not hurt the
recording continuity at all, I edited it out before I'd ever heard of "torrents"
or "uploads"). they talk about salmon farming and touring in Turkey and Jerusalem
and some other interesting subjects. any fan of the tull will enjoy hearing this,
the sound quality is pretty good, just a little static in a bit of it but
most is clear and bright (but she's not there... this isn't Santana.) It's
a nice set with some good tunes along with the Most Overrated Tull songs Ever
I would prefer the aqualocosundaysalad anyway, to the full monty of Tull's 2 most
overplayed songs ever, and you get an acoustic version of one of my favorite
Catfish songs. I'll have 2 shows of that to share a bit later, but this is the
catfish set in season right now.
do not sell this recording.
Trade freely and losslessly.
fishing is good.
phishing sucks (unless it's the band).
