My Boots And Sombrero. From Maine To Spain Vol 1 A LostChords compilation, July 2008 "My boots and sombrero, My saddle my spurs, If I die tomorrow, Everything will be hers." (new lyrics in "Beyond The Horizon") Many thanks to Stew for support, recommendations & artwork Many thanks to all the tapers for their great work! I tried to put this compilation together as a very subjective overview of this tour and combined some of the better one-off performances ("I Shall Be Released", "Make You Feel My Love", "Can't Wait", "Every Grain Of Sand", "Cry A While") with some of my favourite versions of old and new standards: a swinging "Summer Days" with great guitar work by Freeman, Kimball & Herron; a tremendous "Like A Rolling Stone"; the re-arranged "Tangled Up In Blue" (the audience in Varazdin was very talkative but for me this performance was the best version); "Rollin' And Tumblin'" with an extended slide solo by Denny Freeman; a very fine "Just Like A Woman" with the audience singing the refrain & another excellent solo by Freeman closing the song; "Spirit Of The Water", with Freeman once again quoting "Blue Moon" during his solo; a reinvigorated "Honest With Me" with Donnie Herron's ominous and very effective pedal steel riff; a very beautiful "Sugar Baby" from Salzburg. I hope it's an enjoyable compilation. A second volume (I think I will call it "My saddle And Spurs") is in preparation & should be ready in a couple of weeks. lineage: flac filesets from BT download > wav (dbPowerAmp) > normalisation & crossfades with Music Cleaning lab 2005 > flac (dbPowerAmp) > HC disc 1 [73:37] 1.
