Great stuff!<br /><br />August 8th and 9th of 1970, PG&E did 2 shows at the federal drug rehab center in Lexington, KY. The filmmaker Lawrence Schiller was there to make a documentary of the band, the facility and it's inmates. Columbia (now owned by Sony) was also there, recording the shows for a planned live album. When Schillers film didn't go into national release (it was only shown twice in California before being shelved by a judge) Columbia chose to stop work on the record.<br />Recent research has uncovered that Sony still has the tapes... about 9 unmixed multi-tracks and 4 stereo masters. These stereo masters are now available on CD thanks to Wounded Bird. This is a once in a lifetime chance to hear the band in their natural element, on stage. No other full live album has ever been released by PG&E.<br />It took quite a while, but in February of 2005, Sony Music (who now owns Columbia) sent the surviving band members copies of the songs they had mastered for this album. It was supposed to have been released at the same time as the Lawrence Schiller movie “The Lexington Experience” (a documentary of the band playing at a federal drug rehab center). Disputes with a music publisher caused the movie to be shelved by court order, and the Live and Kicking album never released.<br />The master tapes reveal a fierce energy by all the players, along with masterful playing. You could tell this band knew what they were doing, and having been recorded in 1971, this is a true live album, no studio tricks or enhancements to get in the way of a superb performance. It’s great to hear how this band let loose outside the confines of the studio.The engineer who dubbed the master tapes told one band member that he was so impressed, he gave a copy to the head of Sony Legacy for consideration to be released. If you’re a PG&E fan, or a Blues and R&B fan, it would be well worth dropping a note to Sony Legacy…. really worth having!<br />Silverado once again Thank you very much!<br />…warm greetings from Polishadamus67https://www.blogger.com/profile/07035959023698485029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4951335002172083335.post-42550472314183099862012-06-02T01:14:26.698+02:002012-06-02T01:14:26.698+02:00this is great sounding but wheres the video footag...this is great sounding but wheres the video footage?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4951335002172083335.post-31172899795501619182012-05-30T23:56:10.424+02:002012-05-30T23:56:10.424+02:00j'ai un peu le neurone qui fait le ying et le ...j'ai un peu le neurone qui fait le ying et le yang mais je crois bien que Block quitta le groupe après but i'm not suremacCoynoreply@blogger.com
