Looking for any live CD's. Can anyone recommend a good quality live CD for me to buy. I have seen several for sale on eBay.

Well, Carl, finances may be an issue.

A hobby costs what it costs, doesn't matter how much it costs or how much time it takes, else the definition of "hobby" is undermined.. and to Miss Sparks: there are also loads of unofficial "2 hands 1 mouth" CD's (and DVD's) floating around.

I now have 3 live CD's Two hands one mouth. Also live at record plant 74 and Left coast angst. I notice with the Left coast angst CD it sounds like it was recorded from a vinyl, as i can hear some crackling especially on track wish i looked a little better.

Maybe the original master tape was misplaced or damaged, and vinyl was the only option. I don't mind a little crackling myself, it's taken on a certain nostalgic aura here in the digital age.

I would be interested much in the London recording from 1975. Apparently this is bootleg. Could you please direct me to where I could get a copy?

If it is a bootleg it's the best i heard. Sound quality so good. I bought a copy on Ebay along with other CD's including more live gigs, radio interviews and demos.

A CD I brought thinking it was from a London gig, is actually Croydon Fairfield Halls gig. Which is even better for me as i was at that gig all those years ago and now the CD brings back all those memories.

Did a ton of girls really dogpile on Russ that night, one cracking his ribs?

I seen the videos on youtube, yes a lot of girls did jump all over Russell. I wasn't one of them, i was at the back. But a friend i know who went to the same gig, did admit she was one of the girls who jumped on stage.

Russ really got some rough treatment from fangirls back in the day- first post-KMH UK tour he had his trousers ripped off almost every night! A few years later in France (WTS tour) he got dragged off the stage during the encore!

Can't imagine it happening now. Security's a lot tighter, and you wouldn't want to tackle a near 70 year old man who sometimes wears glasses, no matter HOW hot you find him!

Maybe Russell should join #metoo ...
