[Leonard Cohen - Who By Fire (Live in London)]

And who by fire, who by water Who in the sunshine, who in the night time Who by high ordeal, who by common trial Who in your merry merry month of may Who by very slow decay And who shall I say is calling?…

Leonard Cohen

April 8, 2003

On this day twenty one years ago Judas Priest released “Live In London”, which would be the last album to feature lead singer Tim “Ripper” Owens before they reunited with Rob Halford.

What did you think of Owens versions of some of the Priest classics featured on this release?

Could it be this misery will suffice?

Steve Gunn & David Moore — Live in London (RVNG Int’l)

Last spring, Steve Gunn and David Moore released a duo recording, Let the Moon Be a Planet, that I praised in a review for Dusted as “suggestive of the ambient and new age genres, with plenty of space for echo amid the interplay of the two instruments as the tracks gradually develop.” Live in London documents the tour supporting that release, having been recorded at the renowned Cafe OTO on April 10, 2023. This new set nicely complements Let the Moon Be a Planet, resembling it but revealing another side of the collaboration.

In their live shows, according to the liner notes, Gunn and Moore have used the studio recordings as “loose armatures” but, by the time of this live date, had developed them to the point of “almost dissolving our original starting points.” So, whereas the studio tracks have names, the live tracks are assigned sequential Roman numerals. “I” sounds maybe a little like “Over the Dune,” and “III” a little like “Basin,” but these are substantially new compositions, or, perhaps better, compositions-in-performance.

A YouTube video of a concert at the Big Ears Festival in Knoxville a few weeks before Live in London sheds light on the duo’s process: they are seated a few feet apart, with Moore facing away from the audience and rarely looking up from his keyboard while Gunn faces the audience and glances at Moore occasionally, cocking his head as if listening for cues. It all seems improvised and exploratory, but the two close together seamlessly at the end. As might be expected, the live tracks are less contemplative than the studio tracks, with Moore’s playing closer to the rolling waves of notes characteristic of his releases as Bing and Ruth. The live context also contributes to the feel of the recording in an interesting way: on several of the tracks, the sibilance of crowd voices is almost like a third instrument; by the quiet middle section of “II,” the voices are barely audible, and the crowd is apparently silent as Moore’s final chords decay at the end.

Generally, those who liked the studio recording will like the live recording and vice versa. More than that, though, listening to the one brings a fresh appreciation of the other. The duo are currently touring, presumably availing themselves of fresh opportunities to develop their collaboration further.

One of the good things about having an IG account again is that I can finally see all of the awesome behind-the-scenes shots for specials.

Case in point: the astonishingly talented Marc Janowitz—one of the best lighting directors in the business—just posted pics from Wanda Sykes' Emmy-nominated special, I'm An Entertainer.
