REVIEW: |
Volume Twenty has the first show from New York’s Lonestar Roadhouse in early
November 90. The l
ine-up
was: Mick Taylor on guitar and vocals, Jon Paris on guitar, vocals and harmonica,
Wesley Nagy on keyboards, Wilbur Bascomb on bass and Damon Duewhite on drums.
Two
recordings were already circulating from this concert. The one coming from the
box of 4 cds had the better sound, but
Maidenlane's version could function as a nice and
welcome alternative to that recording. All
songs have now been edited,
recording de-clicked, amplified, both channels rebalanced. Some microphone
noises in the tuning have been deleted. Note sound intensity fluctuations at
the beginning of the recording and that the very last second of Red House are
missing. About Red House it shall be mentioned that it starts with a great long
blues improvisation lasting about 12 minutes, whose vocals are different than
the ones for Red House with Taylor signing When love don’t come easy….. and
then there is an exceptional harmonica solo by Jon Paris. However, Taylor is
here backed by a different band with some new musicians, maybe that is why the
energy level is higher than usual, allowing him to play one of his best
concerts ever. The fourth song in the set is a fast Muddy Waters tune, sung by
Jon Paris, but remarkable is also Goin’ South that has a powerful bass solo.
