Many people I speak with who own this don't like the Ravi Shankar side, but I think it is an amazing piece of music, I love the way the tension builds up to the climax at the end with the sudden ending. If he was playing an electric guitar and not a sitar people would have been raving about him being Hendrix's equal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s another from my childhood, dad used to play this one, but it had slipped off my ‘re-acquisition’ radar! Do you know which pressing are decent as a go to, and how’s the Aussie? (Trawling Discogs looking for one atm). Edited December 22, 2019 by furtherpale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was actually disappointed, as my sister got Tull's Living in the Past which I would have preferred. But I didn't mind, one I heard the Bangladesh album. I can tell you that my original is not great quality, having been played to death on a portable record player with a ceramic cartridge. I would think an Aussie pressing would be quite good, it had a lovely presentation with the book in the box (with the disks in the standard Aust poly inner sleeves). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
audiofeline Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 And as a side comment, weren't there were some utterly fantastic double and live albums from that era? Looking at many of the images of these albums is bringing a smile to my face as I recall the magic in their grooves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn’t like the Ravi bit I actually saw George Harrison in Vancouver about 74 or 75 It was the first Stop of his American tour I guess it sounds silly now but it was a real thrill to be at a concert with a Beatle and I was hyper George came on first and it was a bit slow but it really started to get really good he stopped and went off stage and Ravi and his band came on It completely killed that rock n roll thrill and it never really came back after Ravi went off and George came back on to finish Still I got to actually see a real live Beatle Edited December 22, 2019 by keyse1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juzbear Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Loving this live double album, which is part of the new Go-Betweens box set, which came out in December. Previously unreleased, and- so it says- the only 24 track recording of them live. Hence it sounds so much better than all the radio broadcasts and bootlegs that I have heard before. Don't even need tone controls to make it sound good @awty! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
