David Byrne: Unplugged - Live San Francisco (1992)

David Byrne: Unplugged - Live San Francisco (1992)

David Byrne is about as far away from a Leprechaun as possible, so it is rare that he should be featured on McCrank's Juke this fine St. Patrick's Day. Perhaps it is the green beer or maybe solo David Byrne just goes really well with Corned Beef. Now I know he's not Irish, heck he's even Scottish, but it hits home with this green beer and the bar food I am inhaling now. Come to think of it, I just read that David is working with St. Vincent's Annie Clark so perhaps now is the time to pop this post off, while Byrne is getting some news worthy traffic. You don't mind do you David? This bootleg is a Paddy's day gift, featuring a ton of solo material unplugged and in a live vibe! Recorded live in beautiful San Francisco, California, USA on December 13, 1992, this show delivers a quality soundboard at 320 kbps. Also of note, tracks 1-10 recorded December 13, 1992 San Francisco, CA and other tracks, 11-21 listed as Live on Tour 1992. So in essence a mish-mash of cabbage and corned beef. The quality is in the music. My favorites are of course the covers (both Prince and Neil Young) and nods to his past - via the Talking Heads "Psycho Killer". Now after bumping this bootleg, don't you think Byrne goes well with St. Paddy's, a bike rack, and some green beers?
