OldNeumanntapr Notes-
This was both the first and only time that I’ve seen Mark Knopfler’s band, and also the first and only time that I have been to the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. I saw Dire Straits at the Oakland Coliseum on 2/2/92 on the ‘On Every Street’ tour, and I was glad to
see Mark again. I didn’t think there was a lot of difference between Dire Straits and Mark Knopfler solo. Mark Knopfler IS Dire Straits, in my opinion. I went to the Greek show with my friend Dave. They have ‘stack’ parking at the Greek, on the lawn, so you can’t leave until the show is over. I’d never seen that before, but I guess it’s because they have limited space. The Greek is a beautiful amphitheatre, being right next to Griffith Park. There are huge redwood trees that encircle the amphitheatre. My first experience with the Greek was listening to Neil Diamond’s ‘Hot August Night’ LP when I was a kid, and hearing him talk about the ‘Tree People’ who would climb the trees to hear the show for free. I loved that album. Neil spoke of how beautiful the theatre was, and he wasn’t kidding. He said it was performer’s paradise. Dave’s first show was one of those ‘Hot August Night’ shows in August of 1972, at the Greek. We sat in the left terrace level. The two terraces, one on either side of the main amphitheatre, were added later and did not exist originally. Being that I was near the inside rail, I had a pretty clear and unobstructed view of both the stage and the left PA stacks, so the sound was pretty good. I did have a couple near me, who left midway through the show, that kept unwrapping
little hard candies. I think the microphones picked up the sound of the wrappers. I really enjoyed hearing live renditions of Knopfler’s solo albums, especially the songs ‘What It Is’, ‘Junkie Doll’ and ‘Speedway At Nazareth’ from the ‘Sailing To Philadelphia’ album, and ‘Rudiger’ from the ‘Golden Heart’ album.

OldNeumanntapr Notes-
My friend John Lech recorded this Neil Young acoustic show. I met John when he patched into me at the Sunday, August 6th 1989, Cal Expo Grateful Dead show. John had his WM-D3 then but soon upgraded to an Aiwa HD-X1 DAT portable, and finally to a Panasonic SV-255. This was one of the first tapes I received from him in trade, and I believe it was one of the first stealth concerts that he recorded. Unfortunately, his levels were really high and the crowd noise is really loud! I’ve never seen another recording from this night. I remember that John said that the security was really tight at this show and he was lucky to get his gear inside. I just wish the crowd wouldn’t have been so vocal, and distorted. At one point Neil comments about the ‘Tree People’, the folks who watch the show from the trees that surround the Greek Theatre. He said that when he played the Greek 20 years before, in 1969, with Crosby Stills and Nash that people were in the trees then too. He said that some of those people today have big houses, and some are homeless, and that he was glad that he was still here. (Neil Diamond also commented on the ‘tree people’ at the Greek on his 1971 ‘Hot August Night’ LP.) David Crosby and Graham Nash join Neil for ‘Ohio’. Thanks to Dennis Orr for trying to work his post production magic on this one, but I think it might be ‘Too Far Gone’. 😉

Original notes:
Another show from the September leg of this tour – one of my personal all-time favourite Neil shows. Excellent sound quality. Neil is again in fine form both musically and with the banter – even Sugar Mountain comments on the hilarious story about Elvis before Old King. Volumes of the music have been boosted relative to the audience noise. Crowd is a little rowdy, mostly between tracks although you can hear someone stamping along to the music on a few of the tracks.
