OldNeumanntapr Notes;
A little more than a month before the show I emailed Billy Maddox, Paul Thorn’s FOH sound engineer and asked about audio recording. I was told that Paul Thorn allows audience, but not soundboard recording. I arrived at soundcheck, about 5 pm, and received permission to hang my Neumanns. Billy asked me if I could send him the recording after the show before it was uploaded, and I said sure. He emailed me that he was amazed with the clarity of the recording and also of the accurate stereo separation. He thanked me and said that the recording would help him to better mix the band live. This was the first time that I have seen Paul Thorn and I thought he put on a really great show. I particularly liked the songs ‘Burn Down The Trailer Park’ and ‘Long Way From Tupelo’. I met Paul after the show, thanked him for allowing live recording, and told him that my friend Brad Foster, also from Tupelo MS, works in the same bank where Paul’s sister Deborah works.

Tapers: Please contact Billy before hand for recording permission. He was very friendly and helpful to me, and supplied me with a set list after the show which Paul signed for me. His email is:

This is extraordinary. This show was thought lost for decades and then just a few days ago it was found and not you can listen to it! You can read the entire sage over at Lost Live Dead. – Mat

Nanci Griffith – Houston, TX (xx/xx/80)

Nanci Griffith
Solo Acoustic
Houston, TX 1980
exact date/venue unknown


SBD

This is a revised/expanded reseed of a torrent from September 2011. I’ve renamed the files, added to/slightly edited the info, and added (most of) the rest of the show from another torrent.

Tracks 1-18 of this were originally uploaded by Bridger on Sept 5, 2011 as “Nanci Griffith Solo Acoustic 1979 SBD”.
It turned out they were actually the first 18 of 23 tracks of a show from Houston, TX 1980 (the exact date/venue are unknown), and that the songs missing were tracks 1-5 of a torrent of Folkscene Nov 27, 1983, which had been uploaded by Bridger the day before, and which has been reseeded by alnino at:
http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=475406

Those five tracks have been included with this reseed as tracks 19-23, so if you’ve downloaded the Folkscene torrent you just need to add them to this folder and change the file names, or copy and paste them here to continue seeding the Folkscene torrent.

For a possible date for the Houston show, someone suggested February 28 or March 1, 1980 at Anderson Fair based on an article at:
http://blogs.houstonpress.com/rocks/2009/03/lonesome_onry_and_mean_a_brief.php

Note: t19-23 don’t fit perfectly; there’s some audio missing between tracks 18 and 19

The lineage for all 23 tracks is: cd-r trade>me>EAC>traders little helper>you

From the previous upload:

“I got this Nanci Griffith in a trade and can’t find any info on so help is appreciated for this one.The skinny.On the track 4 intro she states that BF Deal Records went out of business either on January 1 this year or January of this year so I’m figuring 1979.Now on one of the later songs she makes a comment about how you tell people your voting for John Anderson and nobody will speak to you. So if Anderson is running for President that’s circa 1980 ish so that would be around 1979 as the election is 1980 so he would announce it before hand.As to venue it’s small and a handful of people and it sounds kinda give and take with the audience which means small place.Now that I think about it I think I have the album Poet in My Window on Feather Records. I don’t remember.Anyway this could be a cassette recording of an album as you can hear vinyl but also a tape in that while recording the album the needle went into the red so you can hear the distortion.Only in bits and bobs not like whole entire songs.
Can’t find hide nor hare of info about this recording anywhere.No trade lists no sites no homepages no nothing. Yet here it is.
A lot of oddball Nanci acoustic on this one so help with the setlist is apppreciated…
Oh and the tunes are not from the Kerrville Folk Festival compilation as the comments she makes demonstrate that she is not playing there.Also along the same lines the tunes are not from that BF Deal record.

So lineage goes cd-r trade>me>EAC>traders little helper>you..

Killer Nanci Griffith here.”

Encores

d3t06 – Brokedown Palace ->
d3t07 – We Bid You Goodnight

Notes:

1) SBD source was about 1.5% fast.

2) Cut in the SBD between Cumberland and Moon, before encores, and for the first two minutes of the recording. Brief cut in the SBD near the end of Saint. Sizable Cuts in SBD and AUD during Space – these cuts did not overlap, so the whole song is now present. Brief dropout in the AUD mid Attics.

3) Because of just plain weirdness in the Tuning track of the SBD in set 2, which was mostly the Fishman patch, I opted to only have the AUD play.

4) I noticed some faint clicks/static in the SBD here and there.
