From the very beginning of Lichen, John has recorded every single live gig. Well, maybe we could count on one hand the few times he couldn't do it out of almost 2,000 gigs. In the beginning....tapes were dated....songs played were all filled out....venues and towns were listed. But as life goes on and children are born and multiple jobs are worked, bare bones info (maybe just a date) would be listed on the tapes/cd's/digital disks. Sometimes we would pick up tapes on the way to the gig, or tape over something not as important, it was sometimes a frenzy. He is on a sort-of mission to listen to them all (slowly, as his schedule allows), fill them out and post special cuts, ones with special guests, whatever he discovers!
Vault pick #1
Caravan from La Cantina, Wednesday 6/6/1990
chosen for good quality of the live recording and the great variations of intense high and soft, hushed music levels
