track only
spooky
Trower buffs will note the increased midrange due to the use of the Marshall cabs with 10 inch speakers.
Robin would change over to 12's during the Bridge of Sighs album and later, for reliability on stage for the rest of his life, so the first album is a real treasure.
Both the bass and drums have since left the universe.
reg isadore was the only drummer i ever saw live that did not use or need microphones on his drum kit.
this track is a prime example.
listen to the drums during the jam.
do they sound like they are getting the holly sh#t pounded out of them? well, thats because they are.

Yes Crusher, Chris Whitley was a masterful guitar player, as well a great songwriter, and had a very original voice. He covered a lot of territory on his various recordings and is greatly missed. I was lucky enough to see him on his last tour in September of 04 at the 12 Galaxies in the Mission in SF. When the club closed last year, sadly, the owner listed his top ten shows that took place there, and that one was on it.
Living with the Law was covered brilliantly by another favorite of mine I am lucky enough to be able to see often, as we share the same adopted hometown. Bill Frisell.

John McLaughlin is one of the great ones. Saw him with Joey Defrancesco and Dennis Chambers in sort of the ultimate organ trio. Also saw him with the new Shakti.
There is some some good McLaughlin on the DVD of a 2004 Carlos Santana Montreux concert "Hymns for Peace". Plus others in the band are Wayne Shorter, Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Ravi Coltrane. Carlos has such great phrasing and a sense of space and time.
Pat Martino is a great jazz player. He was a top guitar player at age 16 then started suffering from seizures when in his 30's. He had a brain operation to fix things up. When he woke up he was cured but had total amnesia. Did not remember his life, parents, how to play the guitar, anything. He taught himself to play over the next 7 years before starting to record again. Eventually he was even better than before.

Nels Cline, who has a solo career, and plays with Wilco, among others, is an especially impressive player. I really look forward to seeing him in concert again.
