I’ve been collecting bootlegs for nearly fifteen years now. Amazingly it was less than two years ago that I discovered bootleg blogs. In fact it was after I started my own version that I discovered others were doing the same thing. At first it was like discovering gold in your back yard. Then it was like going down a wormhole there were so many different blogs out there.

I downloaded everything. Constantly. Then I filled up my hard drive and realized I needed to stop. I very rarely download anything from a blog anymore. Not only was I running out of room but I knew I wanted to blog things that I had obtained from normal sources. What I mean is that I prefer to link to blogs that have interesting things and not upload them myself. That way I’m fostering the community and not stealing so to speak. Now of course stuff that I already have on disk, and stuff I get in torrents are still circulated in other blogs, but I’m at least not directly ripping them off.

Yes this also means that I rarely actually listen to the stuff I link too. I simply link what looks interesting and make no comment on the quality.

Anyways that being said today I have a couple of shows I downloaded from elsewhere. These didn’t come from blogs so I don’t feel like I’m intruding on somebody’s space. They were found in basically download areas, where someone has uploaded the shows to a site similar to Mediafire and then someone unrelated found the download.

I don’t know if any of that makes sense. I feel a kinship with the other bootleg blogs and I don’t want to upload stuff I downloaded from them, but in this case it didn’t come from a blog but rather a random site that isn’t updated regularly.

Anyways, enjoy the PJ.

Michael Baker – Drums

Bruce Hornsby has a habit of playing snippets of random songs inside of another song. Often, in fact, he’ll play two or three pieces of songs inside another full song. For example in this show he plays “Ramblers Hornpipe,” “Mellow Yellow,” and “First There is a Mountain” within the frame work of “King of the Hill.”

Normally creators of bootlegs will simply track those snippets in the same track as the full-on song. In this case, for unknown reasons the creator decided to create separate tracks for each snippet. Kind of obnoxious, if you ask me, but that’s the way it is. Great, great show though. Tons of fun.
