There are few more reliable live performers than
Richard Thompson
, who never fails to impress on-stage in any context, and in recent years
Thompson
has been issuing a steady stream of live recordings (available through his website and at live shows), finally filling a void that bootleggers had been attempting to satisfy for some time.
Live from Austin, TX
is a slightly different animal than most of
Thompson
's self-released live offerings -- while many of
Thompson
's live offerings were culled from several dates from the same tour, this is a direct audio recording of the set he played at a taping for the great
PBS
music series
Austin City Limits
on July 2, 2001. It's also available through normal retail outlets, which means more people will be able to get hold of it, though in some ways it isn't quite as strong as
Semi-Detached Mock Tudor
,
Thompson
's 2002 release which includes much of the same material and a stronger, more dynamic sound mix. Still, there are those who will argue you can't have too many recordings of
Thompson
singing his songs or offering up his dazzling guitar work, and it's difficult not to agree after giving
Live from Austin, TX
a spin -- his interplay with bassist
Danny Thompson
and drummer
Michael Jerome
is remarkable, his wiry guitar playing is largely sublime (though the version of
"Bathsheba Smiles"
features that modern rarity,
Thompson
actually flubbing a phrase!), and the set list strikes a lovely balance between material from
Mock Tudor
and gems from his back catalog. In short, this disc features
Richard Thompson
playing 15 excellent songs in concert, and really, how far wrong can you go with that? ~ Mark Deming, All Music Guide
