I love the primitive and raw sound of 60s-70s concerts prior to the development of massive and powerful PAs. There is just something to the sound coming from the stage itself that modern high powered PAs lose.
This is the original composition that became pictures of a city with Mel on sax. I love how this sounds like a cross between an old detective action movie and 007.
I think that this, of the three recordings of this song on RUclips (including pictures) this has the best "fast section." I think it is closest to the Bruford-Wetton "flying brick wall" that was possible before the two joined the band. The drums and bass during that section are amazing.
Love the art work for this box set as well.. Purchased the set when it came out and it has worked into my own art all these years, always amongst my massive play rotation.. 2001 i was dating Tallulah Sulis in New York going back and forth between Detroit and the apple all year..
I definitely want to get a license to use this particular version in my game. This group is geniuses! They can play live performances hundreds of times better than disc. One of the greatest and most underrated performances in rock music.

This number was fully formed even at this early stage months before the release of the album!!!Amazing performance!!
A man, A city. Is a much better version of pictures of a city, imo

When I finally got to see them in 1983 the magic was long gone. The Beat tour.
A perfect sound and lyrics of a sick and doomed city and country
Intro free jazz
Mommy wanted Robert to get a respectable job luckily he didn't listen
05:00 o negócio começa a endoidar amigo🦍🦍🦍🦍
Great jam. Is this superior to the studio version of Pictures of City?
This is a predictably terrible live recording but that intro sounds amazing.
@@gepmrk what's terrible? the recording or the music?
@@iamjustahudsonhornet3468 The sound quality
The sound quality sucks but I think its a better composition than the original
@@queennai6471 this IS the original. Pictures of a city is a remake and, imo, is considerably worse.
))) класс !
the past that was the future becomes the present
