Not sealed but unplayed.
Patti Smith, Jay Dee Daugherty, Lenny Kaye, Ivan Kral and Richard Sohl headed out on their first US tour to promote the release of their debut album Horses, released only two months earlier in November 1975. Their legendary appearance at Boston s Jazz Workshop displays the trademark riotous atmosphere of New York s punk ethos with Smith s habitual expletives being hurled around before WBCN could pull the plug on a live broadcast. 2LP Set with laminated insert.
This double CD contains a concert broadcast on WBCN from what sounds like a very small and intimate club.
Patti and her group put on a fine performance.
Patti talks endlessly - often in direct conversation with members of the audience - between songs, and even over them, as in the intro of Birdland where Richard Sohl plays the beautiful piano figure for several minutes before she gets into the song. She spends a lot of this talk complaining about demands to moderate her language, before letting rip with the profanities in Birdland.
As ever there's a fascinating mix of Patti's originals and sometimes unexpected covers - as well as the usual Gloria, My Generation and Land Of A Thousand Dances, they play two Velvet Underground songs plus Time Is On My Side and a rather unrehearsed-sounding version of Lloyd Parks's Mafia - not a well-known song outside of hardcore reggae fans.
The shorter second disc is perhaps better value for money as they hit the home straight with a killer version of Land, but she pretty much abandons the song and goes into a rant about the sound system in the club and what an ideal club should be like. The following Time Is On My Side is great if ragged, Gloria is even better and the concluding My Generation, with John Cale guesting and you can clearly hear the bass.
