Synopsis

Album Description

This was a fan club release (1997) that made it out into the general public - unlike the rest of the Jackie Leven live fan club only releases - it's a solo acoustic performance at the Twelve Bar Club in London. It's the first evidence in the U.S. of Leven's rambling, rowdy, soulful live style - including a showcasing of his amazing guitar playing. There are 16 tunes in all, including the unreleased 'Jesus Bodybuilder Blues/Cocaine Blues/Cannot Keep From Cryin'', as well as covers of 'Pale Blue Eyes' (Lou Reed) & 'Slim Slow Slider' (Van Morrison). Cooking Vinyl.

CD Reviews

Amazing stuff

Pablo De Sevilla | Dallas, TX USA | 09/13/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I'm still soaking in the wondrous beauty of this album. Jackie Leven is an amazing singer and songerwriter -- his voice is unparalled and his words are poetic and moving.

For old Doll by Doll fans like myself (the most under-rated band of the 80s) the highlight is hearing Jackie tease the audience by plucking the opening bars to Janice (from Remember) and then launching into a beautiful solo rendition of Main Travelled Roads (from Doll by Doll). Much of Jackie's newer work gets close to this sort of emtional depth, but Main Travelled Roads is still ever so powerful."
