very exciting! been wondering and waiting on this one. i have an audience boot of this show. sound is pretty bad (though not for an audience recording from the time), but the performance is wonderful!

 

From Facebook...


" At long last, the recording of Dan’s stellar 1979 solo performance at Carnegie Hall is ready for production! You’ll hear every minute of the concert, including Dan’s banter with the audience between songs. That, combined with Bob Ludwig’s digital sound enhancements, will make you feel like you are there.

Dan Fogelberg ~ Live At Carnegie Hall will be available as a download and as a double CD package. If you are going to order the CD package, please go to http://thelivinglegacy.net/CHCD_exported/form.html and let us know. We aren’t taking names or orders, just getting an idea of how many to press. Please let us know by Sunday March 5th.

Ever on... "

Samples up.

 

God, I am so looking forward to this !!! This was my favorite period, we lost touch (musically) after Phoenix, but 1972-1979, he was in constant rotation on the turntable. Especially on a sunny Sunday morning, sitting on my second floor balcony, that overlooked nothing but wide, open land, with cows.
These samples have got me all hyper again, when I'm supposed to be letting the Zzzquil kick in.

There should be a link to cd preorders on his web site in the next few days.Also worth reading his widow's story of getting this mastered and released which is also linked.

 

cd link is up!

Dan Fogelberg: Unreleased studio recordings, live performances (+ possible deluxe editions)?

 

Amazon CA has shipped my CD

 

So you're not letting the dents, or missing credits stop you either, eh ? Listening to mine now...so nice to have unheard Danny, from my favorite era.
.

 

i am listening to it now... with dents.

 

Song From Half Mountain was always a favorite.

 

the 'dents' show it was the original pressing, and as for missing credits.......the only credit is dan fogelberg, no one else plays on the entire thing.

 

Dan's widow, Jean wanted credits for the sound engineer that recorded it completely on his own, after Dan said not to record it, John Logan. The other credit was for a Dennis Fite. She doesn't say what his role was, but she wanted a Special Thanks credit for both men.
.

 

got it, i thought that's what you were referring to.

 

Jean Fogelberg's account on the website says that Dennis Fite mixed Dan's monitors on that tour. He emailed her to give her some details after he saw that she was releasing the CD.

 

In my humblest opinion, this concert is maybe from the Chicago concert, 10th April 1979. This concert shares the same setlist with Chicago. Before Once Upon a Time, Fogelberg says that it's great to get back in Chicago. This recording comes from a DAT tape and there're no original recordings left for comparing the concerts and the setlists. Just an educated guess and some doubts.Lady Fogelberg writes that she has searched and not found the original tapes. I haven't listened to the all discs yet. I don't know if there's also a reference to Carnegie Hall somewhere in the recording . Carnegie Hall said that they didn't use to record concerts from the PA. Did anyone else notice the reference to Chicago? I don't speak fluently English.

 

Dan was kidding about Chicago. He mentions that he is at Carnegie Hall later in the performance.

 

Listened to some of this the other day on Spotify. I think the tape speed is a bit off (slow). On the positive side, I like hearing "Netherlands" without the orchestra.

 

Discogs lists 11 tracks for the first CD in this set:

1-1 Nether Lands 5:47
1-2 Once Upon A Time 4:32
1-3 Stars 4:11
1-4 Crow 5:28
1-5 Old Tennessee 3:56
1-6 Song From Half Mountain 3:31
1-7 (Someone's Been) Telling You Stories 6:05
1-8 To The Morning 6:57
1-9 Paris Nocturne 3:49
1-10 Sketches Summer 4:28
1-11 Sketches Winter 3:48

My disc has 10 tracks (1-9, as above, with Track 10 being "Sketches", clocking in at 4:06).

What am I missing?

 

This is from the thread I linked above in Post # 10, it addresses the confusion I believe : Dan Fogelberg: Unreleased studio recordings, live performances (+ possible deluxe editions)?

 

Thanks MYKE. It would appear I have a second pressing (where the sequence and track editing have been corrected). Your link was a big help!

 

I've got a first, and it was one of those things that stuck to my brain. Happy to help !
