CD cover claims that this is Stevie's last club gig. SUPERB "audience" ? recording, better than some soundboards. http://www.willmot.com/SRV/CD/force_of_nature2.html i suspect this has been edited at some point to fit onto 74 minute cds. the weblink above says cd1 was 77:07 (11 tracks) and cd2 was 74:35 (10 tracks). and the version i have is just shy of 74 minutes on both discs. although the crowd noise after d1t6(voodoo) and d2t10(thirdstone) ends abruptly, i dont think thats what was edited, d2t10(lenny) fades out before stevie's done, its 30 seconds shorter on my version, d1t11(jam292) also fades out, it is 3 1/2 minutes shorter on my version. even with the edits i decided to seed it, just cuz its such a great freakin show. if you have the "real" version i'd love to get a copy. enjoy, this show rocks -davepeterson (phish_head@qwest.net). http://www.willmot.com/SRV/CD/force_of_nature2.html Force Of Nature II - Fitzgerald's Club, Houston, Texas, 20jun83 [Balboa Productions, BP-95012/3, 2CD] CD 1: (77:07, 11 tracks) CD 2: (74:35, 10 tracks) Album release party for "Texas Flood" CD cover claims that this is Stevie's last club gig SUPERB "audience" ? recording, better than some soundboards <CD 1> 1> Opening Jam 5:57 2> Come On 8:47 3> Mary Had A Little Lamb 3:10 4> Rude Mood 3:48 5> Dirty Pool 10:13 6> Voodoo Chile 10:29 7> Heartfixer 4:52 8> Drivin' South 9:53 9> Texas Flood 6:52 10> Testify 4:32 11> Jam 292 8:44 <CD 2> 1> Instrumental 4:29 "Testify" 2> Instrumental 6:30 "So Excited" 3> Voodoo Chile 10:42 4> Tell Me 3:16 5> Texas Flood 9:57 6> I'm Leaving You 7:24 7> Pride And Joy 3:41 8> Little Wing 10:23 9> Third Stone From The Sun 8:13 10> Lenny 10:02 reviews: This is a double CD set of a club gig (Fitzgeralds) SRV did in Houston in 1983. This set smokes--it?s RED HOT! If you don?t have Force Of Nature II you better pick that one up also. Recorded at Fitzgerald?s in Houston, an excellent example of how SRV sounded in the early days. Get it! great show. The performance is vintage Stevie and the sound quality is pretty good too. Testify and So Excited were just blistering during that set. Let the tape roll and check out Voodoo Chile next, which also sizzles from beginning to end. When Stevie was ON in 1983 -- and he almost always was! - -- there is nothing quite like it: pure energy and soul. Double disc set, sounds almost like a board, but probably made with mics from vicinity of the board (haven?t listened lately). There is also another excellent audience tape of this show around. Great night for Stevie, this was basically his record release party. John Hammond SR. and other record execs were there and Stevie tore it up. |
