I use the Shepherds Bush album as a reference for my system and the room acoustics; I went to that gig and there was a very special and memorable 'tension' in the air, something like playing a quiet track loud on a system with a low noise floor, it was palpable and when I reproduce that effect then I feel I'm getting the event reproduced, more than just the acoustic of the venue.
    I saw them at Mean Fidler when it was still in Harlesden as a Acoustic Duo If you like the guitar work check out Rodrigp Y Gabriele No vocals but great live band

    Lou Reed - 'Rock n Roll Animal'

    This version of 'Sweet Jane' gives me a hairs on the back of the neck moment. The band on this album were the Alice Cooper band. Dick Wagner & Steve Hunter - two great guitarists who've gone by almost unnoticed.
    Lord I hate this recording! Sorry! Not for Lou Reed, but for the backing guitars. They have a sound that is so early '80s, that I find it unlistenable.

    Don't worry - it's just me.

    Regards

    The thing is it was made in 1973 - must have been before it's time! That anthemic thing did become a little passe by the 80's.

    Maybe I should have said early '70s, but whatever you know what I mean. If it is 1973, then maybe it's more of a glam rock sound - but then I never liked glam rock anyway (apart from Roxy Music and some Bowie).

    Thanks John, I'll take some of that!

    To return the favour, a must-have CD is the eponymous Salinas by Luis Salinas. Show-off quality recording, exquisite acoustic guitar work and arrangements that engross you completely. Probably my most played CD ever and after quite a few years I still play this one more than any other.

    If you think you know the answer already, you're not really searching

    A plastic box, some glass bottles, two metal tins and some lengths of string
