Nanci Griffith Other Voices, Other Rooms (sessions) - WIMOWEH

Might sign off the day and the week with this universals joyous song

From the Other Voices, Other Rooms sessions and I can name the instigator in Nanci Griffith front and centre and I spot John Prine and Leo Kottke but was struggling with anyone else

So someone posted it on Instagram claiming it was from the Wimoweh session which of course makes total sense

The Saw Doctors and the RTÉ Concert Orchestra perform 'Same Oul’ Town'

Think I posted this before (back in MARCH!) and I mentioned how great lots of Irish TV is Tommy Teirnan’s show notwithstanding and his interviews are superb (who knew the brilliant stand up and actor/comedian would excel at being attuned to other folk?] here with the Irish RTE Concert Orchestra 

go on click it anyway . . . it will play!

so draftervoi says:

This purports to be a copy of a mix prepared for DCC Compact Classics by famed audio engineer Steve Hoffman. 

Discogs has another version, with the cover with being a mock DCC slip case with the black and white cover of the 

original All Things Must Pass album released in Japan in 2023.

This new Japanese bootleg version has a colour cover and is probably a copy of that bootleg. 

The printing on the CD itself looks blurry.  

The track listing on the back only lists 14 of the 18 songs, which is a sloppy error on the part of the bootleggers.

Hoffman has stated that unused mixes are destroyed, so it's anybody's guess whether this is or isn't his mix.

So... what does Our Beloved Voodoo Wagon Audience think of this mix? 

I haven't done an A/B comparison between this and the many releases of the original albums 

(I go all the way back to the 1970's vinyl....).  

Is this really different to the other mixes?  

Or did I just toss some money down the dumper?

To my ears, it sounds fine, but is it really a different mix?  

What do you think of this release?

Let him know what you reckon at Basecamp back at The Wagon!

Brian Eno - Becalmed [ Another Green World] |jt1674

  . . . another favourite album bought when it came out and for the longest time perhaps my top choice of Eno’s work . . . . . still up there

Leonard Cohen - It Seemed The Better Way [You Want It Darker]

 More TV soundtracks  . .on Mr Mercedes? At it’s spooky best

Scary either way . . . . context is everything

[and clearly the budget must have got exponentially bigger and therefore afford more songs with serious clout]

Neil Diamond "Holly Holy” 1969 - 1971 [Mr Mercedes Series 3 soundtrack]

Neil Diamond "Holly Holy" on The Ed Sullivan Show 1969

  . . .and another featured as part of a TV soundtrack . . . . . never the greatest Neil Diamond fan (what WAS he doing on The Last Waltz but then what the heck was Van Morrison doing in his  kicking showgirl hhot pants too!?) Time dates us all hey?

Neil Diamond Talks About "Holly Holy" Then Plays It (Live 1971)

in context this song freaked me out on the programme and it is a VERY odd song lyrically and as Diamond goes on here, its about the feelings not so much the words but heck it is ODD? in the context of Mr Mercedes it is down right scary!
