Carbon/Silicon - Live The Islington Academy (2010)

Carbon/Silicon - Live The Islington Academy (2010)

Like they do in Midnight Cowboy, I was cruising the old Carbon/Silicon forum and stumbled upon a nice, rare live show from Mick and the boys. This short, but very sweet four track set from Mick Jones, Leo and Tony James features guest drummer Rusty Egan and is from their recent show supporting Rich Kids, last month. Recorded live at the Islington Academy on January 7, 2010 this show was a benefit for guitarist Steve New, who is suffering of an illness. In addition it allowed some very old friends to get together and jam. The set here, is a greatest hits four set, by Carbon/Silicon, many of the tracks from the first official release. (The newer tracks seem a bit less hip and too rushed-off). The songs are performed with fun energy, making the concert highlight, the magnificent performance of "The News". An awesome "Why Do Men Fight?" also deserves a mention – a good old rambling epic – like the old Carbon Silicon days.
