Brand X
Livestock
The Story
"Livestock", released just after the first two Brand X studio albums, was recorded live at Ronnie Scotts in London (September, 1976) and at the Hammersmith Odeon and the Marquee Club in London (August, 1977). Since the band was comprised of musicians with a fair amount of concert experience, it's no wonder these performances translate well from studio to stage. Here you'll find songs like "Euthanasia Waltz" from "Unorthodox Behaviour" and "Malaga Virgen" from "Moroccan Roll ", but the other four tracks represent material not found on their first two recordings. Some wonderful spacey fusion here, plus the requisite harder moments courtesy of John Goodsall and his guitar.
