1952 Vincent Black Lightning
I think there is now a law that he can't do a show without that song or (likewise much to my glee)
Al Bowlly's In Heaven. When it's a band tour I want more acoustic. When it's an acoustic show, I miss the electric. Hard to please! There were a few songs Tuesday eve where I could *swear* he was playing a twelve string at different points, but just some serious harmonics and a few electronic bits, I guess. A few completist bits about his guitar situation
here (I hadn't seen his new aquamarine electric before, but could tell it wasn't his old aqua strat...)
I just went looking for his new "The Old Kit Bag" CD at a shop here, but they didn't have the version with the bonus CD. I did see 2 copies of R&S in the bin. I wouldn't be surprised, though, if some of his catalog gets harder to find as some of the older Richard and Linda albums now seem to be (Thank Heavens I'm a Fair Completist!)
Still waiting for the "1000 Years" CD. I'm less curious about his rendition of "Oops" than I am about his cover of an ABBA tune. RT does ABBA??? It did make me think: Who is the Stephen Foster or Cole Porter of the turn of the century? The 80s, 90s and Oughts?
You do not really have to be 40 to get into the show, but I dragged an RT-deprived friend along who is just around 40 and he remarked that for the first time in a very long time he was conscious of being significantly *younger* than average at a concert!
(I am vindicated, as I had tried a few times to get him to a show and he has now emphatically admitted what he was missing...)
