What's Playing
Some interesting stuff has been added to the playlist.
Most recent acquisitions are:
1. Cream Reunion at Madison Square Garden, NYC - October 2005 (DVD Video)
-This is a 7-cam audience recording. Video is not as clear as we want it to be, audio is
okay. Bottom line is that there is no commercial release of their 4-night stint at MSG, so
this is a collector's gem.
2. Keb Mo "Live" at Estival Jazz 1997 Lugano, Switzerland (Audio)
-This one is sweet... great soundboard recording, unreleased commercially.
3. Robben Ford "Live" at Yoshi's, Oakland,California (Audio)
-Clear FM broadcast of a 1998 gig. Robben is at his best in this one. A better-sounding
boot than the Sta.Monica gig with Sting that's been largely circulated.
4. Johnny Winter "Live" in Barcelona 1970 (Audio)
-Collectors say this liberated bootleg is Johnny's best documented live performance.

5. Derek and the Dominoes "Live" at the Fillmore East 1970 (Audio)
-Great sounding soundboard! A complete recording of their two-night stint at the Fillmore on four (4) compact discs. Never released commercially in its entirety.
6. Taj Mahal and the Hula Blues Band "Live" at the Estival Jazz 2006 Lugano, Switzerland (Audio)
-Another great sounding soundboard recording! This, like most of the stuff in this list, was not released commercially.
There's a long list of gems in our bin, and there's more coming in as we seek and trade for new stuff. Everybody's most welcome to satisfy their craving for fresh blues-based material while sampling our menu and sipping (or gulping!) their beverage of choice. See you at the Backdoor!

Dude, check out www.wolfgangsvault.com -this is a great live music site which I stumbled onto while looking for good music to listen to on the net. Explore their "Concerts" tab, which now offers downloads of some of the best concerts from such emissaries as King Biscuit Flower Hour and other iconic shows back in the 60s & 70s. They have blues materials from Taj Mahal, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Miles Davis and many more. Requires pretty fast broadband connection, but worth it. Check it out! - Ron W., Teacher's Village, QC.
hey ron, thanks for the link! we're practically neighbours, man! you could easily drop by Maginhawa so we could "compare notes", so to speak. i'm there every night, from 7pm onwards. take it easy, man.
