Jane's Addiction 1991 Honolulu

I haven’t visited my old tape-trading days (though I had this one on CDR) in quite a while. I remember listening to this CDR for the first time. I won’t share the details except to say that it was one of my favorite live recordings for a long time.

Full soundboard recording from the Aloha Tower in Honolulu - September 26, 1991. Second night of a two-night run and the last to feature the original lineup until 2008. Apparently, band members got nude.

Enjoy.

Prince's Funky Instrumentals (1977)

I can’t believe I haven’t posted this sooner, but I saw someone mention it the other day on Twitter and it was like I was hit with a lightning-bolt need for some unreleased (as far as I know) Prince instrumental tracks from 1977.

Prince was about 19 years old here and plays organ on these tracks. He is accompanied by Prince, Andre Cymone on bass, and Bobby Z on drums. These recordings are dated about a year before Prince’s first “official” album, For You. They are generally known as the “Loring Park Sessions ‘77” but there is a version floating around called “Husney’s: A Work In Progress,” and frankly, I enjoy the artwork for that one, so that’s what I’ve included in the download. Feel free to replace it or create your own or both.

Download mp3 files and the “Husney’s: A Work In Progress” artwork here.

Anyways, enjoy this early, funky Prince:

Soul Coughing (1996 Houston)

As I’ve mentioned before, one of the things I like doing here at Ye Olde Music Blogge is to post concerts that I first came across when I used to do a lot of tape trading. Yes, through the mail. People would make copies of concerts and trade them and mail them across the world. It was glorious and probably still goes on. I never had many Soul Coughing shows but I did have a cassette copy of this 11.01.97 show from the Urban Art Bar in Houston, TX.

I just realized the other day that there is also video for the show. So, I says to myself: “Self: why not go ahead and post that video for the fine folks who happen by Ye Olde Music Blogge?” And, well, danged if you didn’t know; that’s exactly what I did.

Enjoy.
