Artist: Robyn Hitchcock & the Egyptians Recording date: 1993 Apr 23 Location: Compton Terrace, Phoenix, AZ Source: audience Setlist: Driving Aloud (joined in progress) So You Think You’re In Love Madonna of the Wasps Railway Shoes If You Were a Priest Airscape Child of the Universe Wafflehead The Wreck of the Arthur Lee Only the Stones Remain The Arms of Love The Moon Inside Oceanside Yip Song The flac files are incompatible with the CD-Audio standard. The sound is in 24-bit stereo sampled at 96 kHz. Feel free to post a downsample - I’m not going to at least until I’ve got all my tapes done. Notes, rambles, etc.: I found this tape and thought it was a joke I played on myself. RH & the Es at Compton?? I don’t remember that. I thought I’d never been there. Listening to it and finding my ticket stub helped to remind me. Oh yeah. That’s me going ‘whoo’ on ‘Arthur Lee.’ That was a weird festival. You’d think it might be more memorable. I found a listing for the show in the newspapers dot com archive. Seems it was KUKQ ‘Birthday Bash #4’ -- ‘lawn’ for only $2. The lineup for the ‘A’ stage, in order: Tragically Hip Rage Against the Machine Robyn Hitchcock and The Egyptians X Porno for Pyros I didn’t tape anyone else. Tape flip was immediately after ‘’Arms of Love’ and eats the beginning of ‘Moon.’ This setup didn’t really work for me. I liked the increased focus on the vocal harmonies, but some of the new arrangements were too keyboard heavy. Did we really need disco ‘Stones’? There’s none of Robyn’s signature banter. Not one song gets an intro. Closest thing is the Beefheartian voice for the start of ‘Wafflehead’ -- but that doesn't really count. Peace, Phideaux3
