Amazing indeed, Jon.
I'd've loved to have seen the fiddle player onstage with Ian Anderson, in his pomp.
Talking of whom:

No fair Hamish, flute.... every time, cannot hear or see all else...grin.... getting on top of my Alto Flute.... a much different to the C flute.
Somewhat perplexed if not vexed that this is Ian Anderson??? Read he was self taught ( a bit obvious ) and that he sort remedial formal tuition, be a nightmare breaking the "bad" habits, by the way he owns some lovely flutes. One chap that i knew here, apprenticed into the army at 16 as a flutist, older than me ( am 71 ) has a Sankyo flute costing $25K decades ago... not that price means skill, he had that with a $100 flute actually $47.50 was my damaged self repair ex school Yamaha YFL225S... somewhat rambling... can hear the difference all the same compared to the YFL511 i play at special gigs. j.

Sounds like the sort of stuff I had to endure listening to John Peel driving home in my Mini on a Saturday…” and if you liked that it’s available on “ bongo “ records …and now some more world music….”

My mother-in-law was a school teacher in Canberra. ACDC played at the school (early days obviously) she recounted how many teachers it took to stop the band from trying to root every girl in the school!

Peels' shows could be a bit of a trudge sometimes....Sounds like the sort of stuff I had to endure listening to John Peel driving home in my Mini on a Saturday…” and if you liked that it’s available on “ bongo “ records …and now some more world music….”
There was usually some decent stuff in there though, particularly the sessions.
Taped this particular one back in '89. Pretty much wore it out, as it went from car to car with me.
The instrumental 'Burly Jalisco' was a particular favourite for me, see what you think.
I know this won't be everyone's cup of tea, but for those who may like some or all of it, here it is.

I’ll be honest- my Mini had Roy Orbison,the best of Cream, Gregory’s Funhouse ( that’s a bit of you!) the Buzzcocks, and latterly an awful lot of Johnny cash. I would listen to John Peel only because he was sounded like someone who had rented a studio for an hour and was recording it for himself ..
bit of everything in there, pistols vib, motorhead vib, et al, mines a Lapsang Souchong when you get a moment, tah, j
Satire, where would we be, looking at a clip like this of course.... many is the modern jazz ( my world, Jazz was the 1920's ) that sound exactly like the performance so well performed, and most of all "explained" to me as i obviously need it outlined, being a simpleton peasant, perspective, much is in the eye of the beholder, "do you still have the lens cap on your one eye....??? Wide is your influences capacity my good Sock... a wryly smiling ex-convict export from the UK.... tah fancied a see a long cruise, well my descendant(s) did.... j.

Anytime J.
Interesting references you picked up on there. My copy of 'Overkill' (green vinyl) has always been near my musical heart.The instrumental on this session has always reminded me of 'Sabre Dance' for some obscure reason...
Listening to this while driving, resulted in much enthusiastic steering wheel & dashboard drumming! Glad you liked it. Steve.
