  • This is the very rare fan club issued DVD - it's been unavailable for a long time, and used copies often go for silly money. It's not a fancy pro shot multi cam extravoganza, but it's filmed officially with an unobstructed view, though it does loose focus a little bit here and there. Enjoy :)

    Took me back over fifty years to when I bought a ticket to hear someone I did not know about. Just a guy with a guitar and magical words, it turned out to be favourite concert ever. He was so cute then, his charm and voice remain the same.

    Al Stewart.....what a wonderful gift!! Al Stewart has always been one of my very favorites. I just love his voice! It sounds just as beautiful as when he was a young man singing that gem of a song, Time Pasages.
    He's very funny and adorable!!

    This is really good. Thanks for sharing. I have been a fan of Al’s since the early 70s when Past, Present and Future was released. I was blown away by Roads to Moscow. Couldn’t get enough of it. What a treat to discover his music. It was so unique to have a songwriter write these amazing songs, about historical events no less. While working at my college radio station at Ryerson in Toronto, I had the good fortune to interview him after he did at Convocation Hall, a fairly small venue. I was nervous as hell, but he was very gracious and answered all my many questions. Fast forward a couple of years and his next Toronto show was after he released Year of the Cat. This time he played Maple Leaf Gardens, a much bigger venue. What a difference a hit makes. He said many times at his concerts that YOTC paid his bills. I was also lucky enough to see him several times in the 2000s at a little club in Toronto called Hugh’s Room. The last 3 of those with Dave Nachmanoff, also a very personable fellow. Every show was fantastic. Al’s voice was as strong and smooth as it was in his younger years. This guy is a great, yet under-appreciated artist.

    • @slugbird1955
      @slugbird1955 3 года назад +1

      I'm a Toronto boy too and made many a visit to Hugh's Room. Unfortunately I didn't "discover" it until about 2010 but then made regular visits to see people like Valdy, Murray McLauchlan and countless times to see Ian Thomas and Rik Emmett. Great memories, fantastic place to see a band and sadly no more. I would loved to have seen Al there.

  • @bullwinkle57
    @bullwinkle57 2 года назад +6

    Thanks so much for sharing this treasure! Because Al has such a small ego, he always has ceded the spotlight to other masterful guitarists, be they Peter White, Tim Renwick, Ardeshir Farah or Dave Nachmanoff. But Al always could play a bit himself, as any student of his "earlier" songs could confirm. "Antarctica" is an old favorite that he sometimes still will play live, somewhat slower than this. Did i say, "Thanks?"

      There were two performances (On a Sunday & Monday evening), for the Festiv-AL gathering of devoted Al Stewart fans. We had a Saturday evening supper gathering at a well-known San Fransicso ristorante (Luigi's ?) in which Al Stewart sat with each table of fans for a few minutes to answer questions, and recommend a good wine for the dinner. The event also included a drive to Napa wine country in a few 1946 white Packard limousines, for wine tasting. Al was trying to sell his remaining CD copies of "Down In The Cellar" , and offered them for the bargain price of $5 each, autographed.

      If it were properly mixed for release then maybe they would have tamed the choir down a bit, but one has to remember that this was a live stereo recording and so will never be 'perfect'. The acoustics in that place probably lend themselves quite well to that choir type sound, in fact I suppose it was designed to do that, so perhaps it's not all that surprising that it sounded a little forward in the mix. Funnily enough I can't say it ever bothered me though, in fact I don't think I even noticed :)
