BeeHive of Live highlights

Live is live and sometimes living and dying, which may not be live. 

Here are a few highlights from my mind of live performances worth
watching and that other thing.

This way: Reed and Bowie and The Dirty Blvd

These two, kicking it hard.

PJ Harvey, I recall watching this appearance on TV (Leno, 1993) when it was first broadcast. She had such charm, and wow, just her and a guitar. Bold as ever.

This way: Capt Beefhart

Do you like Trout Mask Replica by Capt Beefheart? Well then this analysis of the song Frownland is for you. 30 mins talking about a less than 2 min song. A fascinating examination.


Marc Bolan, with Elton John and Ringo Starr. Filmed in Apple Studios, in 1972, for the film 'Born to Boogie', The trio are seen jamming the Little Richard 50's classic.
