Celtic Excavation/ Queen Of The Slipstream - Van Morrison/ Jim Condie Band скачать видео бесплатно

The opening two cuts from Van's unannounced Fife Aid '88 set in St Andrews, Fife, Scotland. Celtic Excavation features Van's fairly unique alto sax (unfortunately I have no pictures of this from the gig) and a piano solo from Neil Drinkwater, while Slipstream opens with a guitar intro from Van (which I love - he plays guitar and sax the same way!) and a solo from yours truly later on. If I remember correctly, I broke a string during this solo, hence the guitar goes a bit out of tune momentarily! Otherwise it was a good recording though. The band members, most of whom had only met Van that morning, are listed at the end of the video. The voice of the MC at the beginning was played by none other than Robbie the Pict., and my guitar tech was one Rab Randall from Edinburgh, who had just finished a world tour as Ry Cooder's tech.
