Description
Here is rare edition of a Patti Smith live show, with John Cale. This has been released under various titles over the years, this one is rare, because of the label release, on this one (old glory), is very hard to find. Unplayed like condition. No paper cover with this one, just the plain cardboard sleeve. This bootleg presents a live Patti Smith performance from late 1975/early 1976 in which she appears with John Cale, who produced her just-released debut album, Horses. Cale gets a solo spot on "I Keep a Close Watch" ("This Heart of Mine"), while Smith intersperses songs from Horses (and "Ain't It Strange" from the upcoming Radio Ethiopia) with such concert covers as the Velvet Underground's "We're Gonna Have a Real Good Time Together" and "Pale Blue Eyes" and the Who's "My Generation," as well as spicing up the proceedings with her usual commentary on everyone from Jimi Hendrix to Giuseppe Verdi. Especially interesting is a version of "Birdland" ("Smooth Stone Beyond") that makes the song's references to Wilhelm Reich explicit. Unfortunately, the sound quality on what must be an audience tape is not great. (Also released under the title Turn It Up.
