Notes:
Few would call Van's "Wavelength" tour a high-water mark in his live
performance career. The shows tended to be short, with Van double booked, and
the set lists varied little. This performance at the Roxy is a notable
exception. Veteran collectors may remember this show as one of the first in
their collections, thanks to the abbreviated version
released by Warner Bros. as a promo LP. The now rare bootleg LP, George Ivan Morrison followed, which,
while filling in some of the gaps in the Warner Bros. release, still did not
include "Purple Heather".
KWEST-FM in Los Angeles did broadcast the entire performance, and CSP is
pleased to offer this to collectors and fans as Volume VI in our ongoing
series. Enjoy what we consider to be the definitive "Wavelength" tour
recording - featuring a terrific version of "Sweet Thing", a scorching "Help
Me", an uptempo "Purple Heather", and of course, "Wavelength" - now never
performed.
Administration & Liners:
Tree administration for this tree was by Celtic Soul Productions.
Van Tree Policy:
Please respect the efforts and the wishes of the dedicated bands of
volunteers who put countless hours of time and energy into producing and treeing these
rare live performances: please do not offer any of these tree volumes for
sale.
