The acoustic Waterdeep show? At least four stars, and totally worth listening to. It's 44 tracks and epically long, but worth it. -GFM #

FTR, I'm very happy with my own recording on the Waterdeep concert. I give myself four stars for not sucking recording an awesome show. #

The Portishead live record gets four stars, which surprises exactly none of you. #
Good gravy, the new Shearwater album is EPIC. Teetering on the precipice of five stars. #

/100th Window/ got four stars from me. More electronic than triphop. Still, good stuff. #
The DCfC bootleg gets three stars. Little echo-y, which is understandable for an arena show. #
It's rare to have a decision on a recording so fast, but while the feed is good, there's static and a DJ who won't shut up. Two stars. #
This CC bootleg is pretty solid. I'm giving it three stars, but only because I don't like the newer CC stuff. If it leaned more older, … #

Really digging the Charlotte Gainsbourg. Thanks @derekwebb and @cjhubbs for the call. Need to listen to this with the new Spoon record … #
The Massive Attack gets three stars. I'm not a Pitchfork head, but they were right … this doesn't really goooooo anywhere. Sad. #
http://www.fromthebasement.tv/artists/gnarls-barkley/performances/crazy is an amazing jam. #gnarlsbarkley Thanks @michaelaterry #
/Heligoland/ gets just three stars from me, despite wanting to like it more than I do. It just sorta lays there like an animatronic fish… #
/Protection/ gets four stars from me. I have the feeling the older stuff from MA is better than the new stuff. #
/Mezzanine/ gets three stars from me. Solid grooves. #

Okay, now I have the entire Massive Attack discography in iTunes. I guess I have to go after Tricky next. [What can I say? It's fun music to drive to around at night in the WRX.]

Just for the record … this Bleu is not the /Redhead/, /Watched Pot/, or whatever Bleu. This is some modern jazz trio. Not bad, but … #
I gave the Jazz thing 2 stars. Heh. For those seeking the Bleu I thought this was, try https://www.noisetrade.com/bleu . Love the dude. #
Now leave me alone, @michaelterry and @joshstockment #
The Wilco DC bootleg from the other day: four stars, yo. #
The old Wilco boot gets three stars, and thanks to iTunes for refunding my money on the "Bleu". #

Top Bootlegs in My Collection, As of January 2010

Geof F. Morris — Wed, 03 Feb 2010 04:37:21 +0000

So Michael and Josh have asked for a list of my top 5-10 bootlegs in my collection via Twitter. Phew.

Click cover art where extant for the download links. If I don’t have a download link, well, I’ll go and see if I can find the CD and dig that up.

2003-09-04: McDonald Theatre, Eugene, OR, USA.
2006-10-09: Von Braun Center Concert Hall, Huntsville, AL, USA. This one, etree says it has, but it doesn’t, really. And it’s so good, so I need to find the CD and load it to Owl & Bear or something.
2007-06-26: Warsaw, New York, NY, USA.
2008-07-04: Roskilde Festival, Roskilde, Denmark. I’ve raved about this one before, but it’s great. And no, I don’t have a torrent source for it now, but I’ll try to find one…
Andy Osenga: 2009-03-23: The Rutledge, Nashville, TN, USA. I believe you boys have this. I don’t have any record of it here on GFMorris.com. My bad.
31 Aug 2007 Over the Rhine show. 2007-08-31: Moonlite Gardens, Coney Island, Cincinnati, OH, USA
1998-06-02: Studion, Stockholm, Sweden
28 Sep 2000 Elliott Smith. 2000-09-28: L'Olympic, Nantes, France.
. 1994-04-29: The Blue Note, Columbia, MO, USA. One of the last UT shows ever, and it fucking blows the doors off. This bootleg is almost old enough to drive, man.
M. Ward on KEXP in Seattle. 2005-03-14: KEXP, Seattle, WA, USA. Short but sweet.
. 2004-09-18: Butternut Ridge, North Olmsted, OH, USA.

If you like The Decemberists playing their extended song cycles, you'll like that bootleg. I do, and it gets 3.5 stars. #
For the record, Greg Laswell's /Three Flights from Alto Nido/ is great proposal-writing music. Mad that my iPhone doesn't have the new PG. #
Songs like "House of Gold" are why I bought the Patty Griffin gospel record. I have the feeling I'm really going to like it from 1st 2 trks #
For the record, I give the Patty Griffin four full stars. Mr. @tonykevinjr gets three. Good start to your career, sir. #
