Little Feat- Spanish Moon/Skin It Back- Dallas 11-20-88

It was indeed Little Feat who played a hot show to over 10,000 Q102 blood donors at the Dallas Convention Center Arena in November 1988. Live mix on the medley “Spanish Moon” into “Skin It Back”.

Jethro Tull- Living in the Past- Philadelphia 1987

"Here's a song we loathed for fifteen years!" winked Jethro Tull singer/songwriter/flautist Ian Anderson when introducing the song "Living in the Past" from the stage. The song is a bit of an orphan, written and recorded in 1969 between their second album, "Stand Up", and the follow-up, "Benefit", but appearing on neither one.

Traffic- Low Spark of High Heeled Boys- rehearsal 2-11-94

...get the Traffic jam flowing with the ultra-rare "No Spark" unplugged version of the Low Spark of High-Heeled Boys title song performed by Steve Winwood and the late Jim Capaldi in February 1994.

Mark Knopfler- Once Upon a Time in the West- Dallas 9-8-19

To herald the upcoming forty-fifth anniversary of the sublime but overlooked second Dire Straits album, here is a tasty live performance by Mark Knopfler in Dallas/Ft. Worth of a song from it, "Once Upon a Time in the West", which would surface on the second Dire Straits album, "Communique".

The Who- Pinball Wizard medley- Toronto 12-17-82

This performance of the "Tommy" medley December 1982 from the Redbeard archives is official and far superior to the bootleg that circulated for years.

Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble- Cold Shot- Austin 4-15-84

When Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble took the stage at the Austin Opera House in April 1984, their much-anticipated second album "Couldn't Stand the Weather" was about to be released. For "Cold Shot", Stevie invited his big brother Jimmie, then of the Fabulous Thunderbirds, to join them.

Bad Company- Can’t Get Enough- Dallas/Ft Worth 7-10-13

One of the bands which defined arena rock in the Seventies ironically never released a live album until the 21st century, but this sizzling performance of "Can't Get Enough" from the In the Studio archives is better than anything anywhere, and it is totally live, no overdubs!
