I've always been a fan of Alejandro's more rockin' stuff.....which is typically live. Well in the mid 90's, he formed a side band specifically to "rock out" so to speak...that band was called Buick MacKane (and you will find no strings here). Named after a T-Rex song, they deliver. Alejandro squeezes every perfect not out of his guitar and reworks some of his famous solo songs. This is a damned good boot, and if you're not very familiar with Alejandro Escovedo, download this....It's a killer show....twangy, loud, country-rock. This was recorded at the Cat's Cradle outside Chapel Hill, NC and they were opening for Son Volt (wouldn't that have been a killer show). His little brother sings a few songs towards the end, and then Chip Robinson & Brad Rice of the Backsliders join them on stage for a rollicking rendition of Powderfinger.MP3

ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU.
ReplyDeleteHey
ReplyDeletejust wanted to let you know...I downloaded this twice. There are five corrupt files. 2, 3, 6, 13, and 14...thanks. this was, by the way, downloaded off the fixed link.
Same problem. I downloaded it from both sendspace and zshare, 12 hours apart, both after you indicated the link was fixed.
ReplyDeleteSometimes, I can fix corrupt files by trying to open them with stuffit and 7zip, or try to repair them with Advanced Zip Repair. Nothing worked. I hope you can repost. Thanks for the many great uploads.
