Squeeze - 1993-11-19 - Sausalito, CA (FM) - So Many Roads

SQUEEZE - Third Rail - On LATER with Jools Holland 1993

 Nice one from draftervoi (so the notes say!) via so many roads today and whilst it is billed as SQUEEZE it is really a studio session with Glenn Tilbrook and Chris Difford only but none the worse for that. 

This is the year of one of my very favourite Squeeze albums 'Some Fantastic Place' but this is by way of a radio interview session around that time and you will want to pick through the tracks after first listens I imagine and thus it isn't the complete album and misses off some of my favourite songs from that era not least the title track (sic!) [presumably these will show up on the next volume advertised for 22 Nov]

Still it is high quality and really worth a listen . . . .watch this space for the next session!



So Many Roads says - 
Squeeze 1993 - Same Tour, Different Show Double Play - #1: In September 1991, Squeeze released their 10th studio album, entitled Some Fantastic Place. The disc featured the return of Paul Carrack, who last appeared on their 1981 album, East Side Story. The disc did not reach the top 100 in the USA, though critical reviews were mostly positive, This FM broadcast captures Squeeze on tour in support of Some Fantastic Place in Sausalito CA on November 19, 1991, 31 years ago today.

Some Fantastic Place - Glenn Tilbrook (written by Chris Difford)

a favourite song and it always makes me think of my old colleague and friend Alison Hiller who passed away from cancer and this is for her as I hope she is somewhere in some fantastic place . . . . . . . . .
