Title: Interesting live album from Island stalwarts
Product review: On June 1, 1974, several artists who were signed to the Island record label got together at the Rainbow Theatre for a special event.Recorded for posterity, the resultant album is an intriguing listen for those who are fans of the featured artists. Kevin Ayers gets about 22 minutes of music (for vinyl buffs, this is Side 2). John Cale, who was just about to release his first album for Island, FEAR, stuns the audience with his version of Elvis' "Heartbreak Hotel". Eno opens the show with "Driving Me Backwards", and follows it up with "Baby's on Fire" (both tracks are from his debut album HERE COME THE WARM JETS). And Nico proves to be quite chilling with her version of The Doors' "The End".The audience are enthusiastic, and this is a well-recorded show.
