So much for "live albums". Your wish is granted in the TapeOP interview. Visconti says the disc is 20% live, 80% overdubbed. He talks in some detail about the sessions. I guessthey didn't intend to do so many overdubs, it all started with Lynott redoing his bass parts and snowballed from there. Some of the tracks were recorded at soundchecks, so they even had to overdub the audience! -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dave Trenkel New and Improv Music http://www.newandimprov.com improv@peak.org -------------------------------------------------------------------------
