Live UK Tour 75 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Always have and probably always will love live albums,specially archive releases,such like this one.'Live UK...' was recorded for a radio program that took place on December 5,1975 at the Nottingham Polytechnic,following the release of their 'Cunning Stunts' longplayer.Six tracks,with a duration of more than 75 minutes of really great '70's progressive.Noticed here that keyboardist Jan Schelhaas has replaced group co-founder David Sinclair.Considering THAT factor,this disc isn't a bad choice at all.Sound is good.Cuts I liked best were "Show Of Our Lives" and the two 17-minute plus epics "The Love In Your Eye" and "For Richard"(my personal Caravan favorite).Give it a spin.

British Tour 75 Review

(More customer reviews)This is for Softs fans of their guitar stage and this album really shows it. This album has no overdubs,feedback goes in and out of the songs and the production probably just the way it sounded as the concert did,nothings change, perfectly concent like. The thing that is odd is you got music from the Softs album that sounds undone and very different and song from Bundles that have change quite a bit like The Floating World is just a bridge to Ban-Ban Caliban or Out Of Season being faster and just electric then on Soft version.Karl Jenkins never even touches the woodwinds and this is the only album you hear Mike Rateledge and John Etheridge play together. The unreleash material is good to JVH is a great synth duet and is just full of sound. Sideburn is a 10 minute John Marshall durm showcase with shows no site of him slowing down. The grand finale in Sigh of Five with is a marvolous funk-rock driven song it features delightful callback reponse and delious band interplay worth the price. If you want some good intensive jams go for this pick.

Recorded originally for a live radio broadcast at Nottingham University in October 1975, and at over 78 minutes, this amazing, previously un-released live recording, captures the band touring Britain between the releases of the 1975 album Bundles and Softs in 1976. The set list includes fifteen tracks containing numbers from both these albums plus three new numbers comprising over 30 minutes of previously un-recorded material. MLP. 2005.
