Nash live was always a rawer, more visceral experience, for sure. :-)Flip Martianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14067481528668200752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2512439840034464731.post-24505919956938724232018-10-07T02:03:15.082-07:002018-10-07T02:03:15.082-07:00So, a new Nash The Slash show on a sunday morning,...So, a new Nash The Slash show on a sunday morning, how could the day start better? Well, I must say at a first look at the setlist I was a bit disappointed because I didn't like the American bandstand album when it came out. For me it didn't have the typical Nash-low-fi charme, very polished production, and the choice of songs...no originals...and then.."Born to be Wild"??? Come on. Later I liked it anyway, but of course it didn't beat the records before. <br />So I was quite surprized when I put on this recording...thanks to Phil, it has an amazing quality!, and here the songs really rock. Here it all is, the roughness, and the edgyness we are used from him playing his stuff and covers. "Born to be Wild" is a burner here as opener. Also the classics performed later in the set are awesome performances, you can really hear Nash having fun. "Womble" just rocks. "Psychotic Reaction", the song I liked best then on the album, ends real psychedelic, a great climax, still incredible that this is just a one-man-show. So thanks, again, Phil, for your great work and sharing this goodie with us! Cheers, Ollie Conraculix Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
