PLAY IT LOUD

Staggeringly good quality recording 

the YouTube poster Berkin Altınok says 

During the Refugees era, the Masters were hanging out a lot in Nashville, they recorded this very intimate studio unplugged session for Timothy White. The legendary track sees a Piano working by Master Winwood alongside Master Capaldi's Percussion. 

A great Acoustic Version...

I cut this into sections so that Our Beloved Audience can reassemble it anyway they like.  You want just an interview show?  Just the live tracks?  You can grab 'em and mix 'em up any ol' way ya wish.

This is sometimes listed as 1990-11-xx, indicating a recording in November. However, an earlier recording date is likely, as the show had to be mastered, pressed on CD, and shipped to radio stations (and a print ad created, proofed, and published in Radio & Records on Nov. 9, 1990). A recording date in August or September is likely.  The syndicated broadcast window was the week of November 19, 1990.

Draftervoi says: 

Clive Gregson and/or Christine Collister take the lead vocals on several songs.

This one has a LOT of tape hiss.

I have a ton of stuff like this, and I'm embarrassed to share it with you 

because it sounds so awful.

What do YOU think?

I said:

Well I don’t want to come over like an idiot (I am but that’s enough of that) but if I said ‘What Hiss?’ As an avid RT collector I have way WAY worse than this and this set would readily become a top player for me. Thompson at his peak and the quality is perfectly acceptable for most collectors of ROIOs I reckon. In FLAC too (an aside but Paul over at the great 'Albums that Should Exist' asked his visitors for suggestions recently and along with many others I asked for more Richard Thompson and he has been posting a few from this era [80s] with Thompson at his peak of songwriting - they are barely better quality than this. Some might say not a patch on this actually.) so there!

This was also broadcast as BBC Rock Hour #422 on May 29, 1983 (versions A and B).

A longer version was issued twice, as BBC Transcription Services In Concert 301 

and a CD version as Classic In Concert 6.  Both of these add "My Girl," "Madness,” 

and "Tomorrow's Dream."

In America, three songs made it into the Billboard Hot 100: "Cardiac Arrest" at #33, 

the big hit "Our House" #7, with "The Sun And The Rain" sputtering out their

 two years 

on the chart. In America, it's all "Our House.” 

That's the only one that you remember, 

and it still gets airplay.  But that's it, they're effectively 

a one-hit wonder here. 

In the United Kingdom, "from 1980 to 1986...when the band's songs spent a total of 

214 weeks 

on the UK Singles Chart, holding the record along with English reggae group UB40

 for most 

weeks spent by a group in the UK singles chart during the 1980s.”  

Thirty-six charting singles 

over a career that saw them with a #1 album in 2023.

Richard Thompson / Park West, Chicago, IL March 28, 1985, WXRT-FM

Now a Draftervoi Special from Voodoo Wagon and around the time I rediscovered Thompson and his solo work thanks to my old friend artist Graham Dean as I have mentioned elsewhere. So this is a tape from the draftermeister from a radio broadcast so it is well worth collecting (hissy or nay according to draftervoi) which I found eminently listenable!

"Another tape discovered down in Đ®åⒻṬëŕṽøï's basement.  I got this in trade, and it's several generations down the road from the master.  There's hiss, but not so much as to ruin it.

I found an entertainment listing in the Chicago Tribune that confirms the date of the show.  This was from a later rebroadcast on WXRT's Sunday Night "Unconcert."

These rebroadcasts are often edited down from a longer original radio broadcast...so there may be a longer original concert. “ draftervoi

P.S. love Christine Collister awesome voice (contralto?) I think this is the band that covered The Byrds (Gram Parson's) song Hickory Wind - the best version I ever heard on a Byrds tribute album
