Your Dream Live Concert.

I think mine would begin with Brian Eno entrancing, saying
"I'm Brian Eno", and then exploding.

A dream line-up in a paul f savage benefit tribute concert
would include the following:

Talking Heads
King Crimson / The Nice duelling to the death
Pink Floyd (circa 1970)
Pavement
The KLF
John Carpenter
Jimi Hendrix
Public Enemy

with the evening ending with a full-scale rendition of the
Beethoven's 9th, 4th movement.

Obviously, after that rousing finale, the crowd would lose
control of their usual restraint, and wreck the gaff!

easy.

frank zappa & the mothers circa 74. petit wazoo orchestra,
even, that would've been amazing.

orrrrr martha argerich's famous performance of rachmaninov's
3rd.

probably prefer the former though

I've only heard Rachmaninov's 1st piano concerto being
played live - I wasn't that impressed: his other two are
much more dope.

David Bowie at my son's birthday party performing "The
Laughing Gnome" and some of his very early, quirky numbers.

I downloaded an awful collection of early Bowie tracks... I
couldn't make it even half-way through. Truly terrifying,
yet amazing how he transformed from that to the creation of
some electrifying albums in the early 1970s.

London Boys
Love you till Tuesday
There is a happy land
Rubber Band
The Gospel acdcording to Tony Day
Did You Ever Have A Dream?
Uncle Arthur
She's got medals

These are all good songs, and I insist you give his early
career another go.

As I recall, it wasn't necessarily the song-writing, more
the production -- If I remember rightly, it sounded like
fairground music.

yeah the first is shite. impressive for the age at which he
wrote it though.

but that concerto, and that performance.. amazing.. i saw a
(swedish, i think) guy perform it in the national concert
hall and i have to say it was one of the most utterly
profound and moving experiences i've ever had.

overwhelming.
