  • Make tomorrow was a good one!

    But another lunatics in the big room track … I could not care less. I have all of his encore CDs so enough live stuff from that period …

    ... make tomorrow today!

    That sums it all up nicely! Hoping for more interesting stuff later in this lunar cycle …

    some are wise ... and some otherwise

  • Oh, another "Lunatics In The Big Room" track. A bit disappointing for the full moon (like last month) but they hint different stuff is to come. Fingers crossed...

    It would not be a surprise would they throw in a Lunatics in the big room track every month - I also am looking for different stuff, such as "Make Tomorrow"...

    If the Lunatics In The Big Room is a bonus track on top of 2-4 other releases in a lunar cycle, then I'm fine with that slowly being built out. A nice side dish, if you will. But if it's the main course, it'll always be disappointing. As others have said, I have quite a few live shows from the era. This one has been strong, but if they were going to drip-release a concert, I'd rather it be from a tour/era that isn't already so well covered. (A monthly song release from a professionally mixed 1980 "Tour of China 1984" show? Then you would have my attention.)


    Don't think I commented in here, but very happy that the Make Tomorrow release was a new version and not just Make Tomorrow Today -- the latter version is fine but I do think the track benefits from the extra couple minutes to breathe a bit. And Peter's vocals on it are stellar.

    indeed

    we probably should not expect three "crackers" each lunar cycle. It's more like one "cracker" and two "nice to have" songs.

  • First blush, my reaction was underwhelming, since this is one of those mid-70s demo songs I never cared for.


    But then I remembered I didn't care for it because the sound quality on the bootlegged version was so poor. So...yeah, I'm excited to have this in an official capacity. Won't ever lap Down The Dolce Vita for me, but happy to listen to this early iteration of some of that song's ideas.

    I agree. I know the track, but never heard it in such a good quality! Thanks for this.

  • New track up today: a 1986 demo of This Is The Road, which has an opening lyric/melody re-used in both Make Tomorrow and This Is Party Man.


    I know this has been out there for a while, but the quality is much higher here than the previous version, and I believe it's a couple minutes longer. A fine addition to the collection.
