I couldn't agree more about a 'live' recording.
In the old days it was about radio 'air-play'. Some people originally found out about the TJB from The Lonely Bull, others after Mexican Shuffle. I started buying the records after hearing Taste of Honey on the radio. I then went back and bought the previous three LP's. I was hooked.
Well, there's not much Easy Listening or MOR programming today where young buyers might be listening. So, a 'live' recording might be the vehicle to get people going back, as I did in the 60's, to sample the other recordings.
That '74 band was great. More like a jazz band. I can't get over Dave Frischberg(sp.) playing piano for the TJB!
