This is sublime, always moves me for some reason. There used to be a great version on YouTube recorded on the OGWT. Unfortunately it's been removed
I have a version from a live in cleveland 1976 bootleg cd, title of the live cd is Sleepin' at Drew's House. Also got a version live in Melbourne '79 cd is called Romeo is bleeding. Both reasonable quality.
Don't suppose many people have heard of this band. They released This Is Hazelville in 2006 and recorded Distraction a couple of years later but were then dropped by the label so it was never released. Some promo copies exist and one is on youtube that I only recently discovered, so converted and split the tracks. Really like it.
The first cover was by Richie Havens, which is a very good version. Odyssey covered Haven's version really. This is like cover to cover, but here's the Richie Havens version:
I've had a couple of listens now and there are some great tracks, the 3 "duets" , War on Peace and Los Feliz stand out for me. Couple of songs didn't do much for me but overall a good album and good to have them back
I've had a couple of listens now and there are some great tracks, the 3 "duets" , War on Peace and Los Feliz stand out for me. Couple of songs didn't do much for me but overall a good album and good to have them back
Definitely different to the earlier stuff and shows maturity. I really enjoyed it.

And here, if you want a different live version (without subtitles!):
19 years has been a long wait but it's worth it
Look forward to your thoughts.
