| Comment | Set II incomplete * this improvisation centres around a melody we find popping up later in MMW’s shows: On April 14/2000 they open an acoustic show with a loose working of this melody but it’s underdeveloped and never heard from again; the song first debuted in full on April 25/2007 as part of a short acoustic tour. A version of the song from that tour was later released on the 2012 live acoustic album Free Magic with the following title: Ballade In C Minor, ‘Vergessene Seelen’. The song was then subsequently played on the Fall ’12 and Spring ’13 acoustic tours in support of the album. ‘Vergessene Seelen’ translates to “Forgotten Souls”, so I labeled this improvisation ‘Vergessene Improv’ — the forgotten improv. From 3:50-6:45 of the track is kind of a lead-in to the ‘Vergessene’ melody which comes in strong at that point and is the main theme for the following 6min or so. + “Mystery Gus” melody first introduced just past the 9min mark and solidified @10:05 of this track, might be from a real song but the only other place I’ve identified the melody is during the band’s 4 instrumental performances of the Combustication tune ‘Whatever Happened to Gus’ in early 1999 (1/14, 1/16, 3/20 & 3/23) — see The Shack Project 1999 page for links to the shows https://theshackproject.com/tsp1999/ ^ recording fades out/cuts at the end of this track leaving Set II incomplete |
