Great report visions.
So often Lu comes up with an unannounced guest, in this case Amos.
I didn’t see Amos when he was touring last year with Lu but did catch his show in Toronto last November with Bo Ramsay and Pieta Brown. Would be great if Amos appears on Lu’s next record.Glad to see “Blue” on the list, maybe someday Lu will perform the
“Rarity” song too.(another of my favorites)lwj
p.s. to Friendly Forum member Lafayette-If you only knew you could have hopped the Amtrak in Cinci to Penn Station for this Lu / Amos combo.
Good work, Visions. I must have been close to you up front; we’ll meet next time maybe.
A few addenda: Lu plugged the Woodstock/Helm event after song 8.
She introduced “Protection” as just that: one-word truncated title. Afterwards, she returned to the Amos Lee motif, saying his brand of “blue-eyed soul” would work well in the studio on that song.
After “Honeybee,” Lu compared it to the Ramones and Johnny Thunder.
Betty LaVette got a nod before “Joy.”
Yes, “Get Right” came before “rockin in the free world.” A propos of the latter, Mr. Lee (back on stage) was lauded further, Philly being his hometown and Lu headed that way for a Sat. afternoon benefit for labor (“the left side”). Lu mentioned that it was a last-minute show, but she is looking forward.
A great run, thanks to all–let’s hear some setlists and reports, and I’ll see some more folks down the line….
