82 Un-covered
For a change, sets of tracks that are linked by title only, everything else about them being different. Once we started looking we found lots of candidates, so there will be more shows on this theme, unless you’d rather we didnt’…
The preshow contained one track excerpted from the main show, Dog Eat Dog by afrobeat legend Fela Kuti – at fifteen minutes it would have eaten into the time too much – and we overran as it was.
The show theme meant we had a wide variety of styles of music, showing off our ecelcticism if nothing else. Unfortunately, some of the tracks turned out to be poor examples of the musicians talent, which we will try to correct next time.
Postshow was stuff from Mal’s stash, as he put the show together.
This will be the last show in 2017, as our next slot would be on Christmas Eve and we all plan to be busy then. Have a great time over the holiday, and we’ll see you on January 7th with a show paying tribute to all those musicians and performers we lost in 2017.
