Morrison, Van

The Classic Kpfa Broadcasts, Vol. 1 (2lp)

The Lion's Share broadcast from San Anselmo, CA, recorded for live transmission by KPFA FM Berkely is one of the great treasures prized by Van Morrison collectors. Featuring early and late shows, the broadcasts of both sets only reached the San Francisco Bay area, which on the night of the concert, 15th February 1973, was rocked by a winter storm, limiting the reach even further. Performing cuts from, what was at the time, his most recent studio album, St. Dominic's Preview, and from the yet to be released, Hard Nose The Highway, Van also peppered both set with numbers from Moondance, His Band & The Street Choir and Tupelo Honey. Covers were present-a-plenty too, with the first set beginning with evergreen, 'Since I Fell For You', and penultimately featuring a one-time performance of Fred Neil's 'Everybody's Talking'. Hank Williams 'Hey Good Looking' gets an airing as well. Set two has versions of Johnny Mathis's 'Misty', 'The White Cliffs Of Dover' and Willie Dixons, 'I Just Want To Make Love To You'. The two sets have not previously been available on vinyl but this new two-instalment set changes that as it now features both early and late shows of this rarely heard 1973 concert.
