Thank you SO much for this… I read about this boot years ago in a Clinton Heylin book about boots, and have always wanted to hear it. Thanks Mat – really appreciate your blog.

You are welcome. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. Its a cool boot.
Thanks for reminding me about that book. I keep meaning to grab a copy.

Interestingly it’s actually these close-miked stage AUD recordings that Van used for the official release. Some kind of 12″ CD single EP or somesuch. Apart from Bob utilising some EX qual AUD recordings from the 2000 tour I can’t think of another instance where an artist did such. Of course there are prob lots of instances of it being done retrospectively for box sets or similar. Can’t really think of an example right now however.
I can remember having some interesting conversations with Mr Heylin in various bars prior to Bob concerts back in the day. Don’t recall our views on ‘must have’ Bob concerts or song performances being closely aligned however. Maybe this is the reason I have never really paid much attention to his books, or maybe it was his disparaging view of Bob’s performances in ’74, with which I flatly disagree! No doubting however that he has made a long and successful career on tha back of this stuff, so I guess others have a more complimentary view. Also no doubt that this is a ‘must have’ boot.

My friend Simon just shared the Flacs for Pagan Streams with me – if any one is interested?
Also my good friend “The Shadow” has located the “The Spawn Of The Dublin Pubs Mint Vinyl Rip” if anyone is interested in that one I’ll share that as well?

Yes! Thanks for this, but I would LOVE the full FLAC of Pagan Streams too – thanks FM!

In fact the KTS is made from a 1st gen cassette copy of the DAT.
So you’d better look for the said DAT which has been transferred to FLAC files and shared on the Net not so long ago…
Thanks Mat, Check this detail: set one w/The Howlin’ Wilf Band , not Howlin’Wolf 🙂 Cheers!

Oh yea, the new Archive is horrible to figure out. Those big icons are an abomination.
Yesterday I found a little corner of the Archive with lots of cool shows they don’t normally have. I don’t really understand how Archive works but once in awhile it seems like some folks upload stuff that isn’t really sanctioned by them. I grabbed some Joni shows and some other stuff before it got taken down.

I agree..The old Archive.org was better. I wrote to Ousterhut earlier this year. He stated that he would try to put more shows up this year. If other people would write to him it might pick things up a bit. Back on the topic of

OK Will do,
Last point re: ousterhoust – for the benefit of anyone looking in. Apart from the obvious candidates mentioned previously, it is THE starting point for any Lucinda Williams or Joni fans out there.
By the way, got any thoughts on the new Archive.org pages? Personally I can’t stand these new web templates. Forcing you to go full screen all the time(more understandable for corporate and ad sponsored sites obviously) really annoying. Also, long text lists of directories may be a bit ‘heavy’, but who in the world thought that colums of randomly arranged icons would somehow help the issue?? Seems to just be everywhere nowadays – like it’s the only option out there. The lateral navigation bar on my browser seems to have become utterly redundant. To think, its 2016, we’ve had the concept of windows within a desktop for how long? Suddenly the old ‘switch’ function with ALT-TAB is more necessary than ever!

Bang on, bang a gong, bang whatever you want. I agree in that I really love the community we’ve grown here. I mean I dig all the other sites sharing this great music and I appreciate that ousterhoust makes it so easy in terms of downloads, but I really dig how we discuss the music.
Let me know if those links for the Guitars101 link you just share ever work. I see you asked TUBE about them not working for some reason.

Sorry don’t mean to bang on, parting shot on this one. ’91 was the start of a very transitional period for Van. If you listen to this show you can hear the beginnings of the Soul Revue of ’92 and ’93 (so perfectly captured on ‘Night In SF’ live album. Here we also have the sultry, soulful sax of Candy Dulfer and also many of the classic soul insertions, medleys and composites.
I only mention this as just this morning found this one, new from EDGE. One of the first shows from the under-posted ‘Hymns’ tour later the same year. Radically different band and approach, quite a jump from Candy to Kate St John. ‘Hymns’ is a spiritual home for me musically, however if i was choosing a sax player it would be Candy for me.
Anyway looks like a master, heavily loaded with tracks from ‘Hymns’ and new to circulation, haven’t checked it out yet however.

I noticed the big GD update. It’s a great site and a wonderful resource, but not the whole story. I really like the interaction of a blog, the chance to chat and compare opininons of alternative versions/releases etc.
Really I was just happy to find that particular Van show. Been so elusive for so long. Incidentally I also found the same file set on the revamped Archive.org. I was a bit surprised, but then it is an AUD rec I suppose. Albeit obviously a closely miked stage AUD with plenty of evidence of proper studio post production. Did anyone spot the brief patch from an alternative inferior AUD source. Not bad for a boot from ’92!

Yep I’m a big fan of that site. Included it in my sidebar links awhile back. I randomly pilfer it. Pretty sure I got all the Van, Dylan and some others. Need to go through it again and see if I’m missing anything. Sadly its not updated often. Last big update was a bunch of Dead shows several months back.
2016/05/03 at 4:55 am
I’m grabbing some Rod Stewart files off that site right now. Thanks.

I should add that this is a great site, wonderful resource for roots fans – particularly Joni, Wilco, Uncle Tupelo, Tom Russell and several other under-posted atists. Also the files are ‘self-hosted’, so nice and easy to grab (as here).
I cleaned out this guy’s archives a few years back. At the time he didn’t have a Van archive, looks like they were all posted in June 2013, so obviously before that date. I didn’t realise that the site was still so (a)live, or I would have been back long ago!

Was just about to beg for assistance in a pathetic, unbecoming kind of fashion. Decided to have one last search.

It’s the Utrecht 91 we are talking about here. You might want to grab a few more while you are there! Most are familiar, probably the sources you already have (but you never know)

Many moons ago somebody ripped this boot CD as mp3. In all the intervening lunar cycles it appears that nobody has upgraded this to a lossless rip. I should know as I’ve been on a quest to find it several times. Necessary stuff, and seemingly the best source available so grab if you don’t already have.
Cheers Mat
