I can certainly confirm that Simon Climie was behind the mixing desk for
several shows. In fact he was on the same flight that I was on from the UK
and that was December 1st which means he was in Japan for the live broadcast
on the 4th December.
Regards
Dave

Can anyone confirm that 4 of the shows at Budokan were officially recorded?
If so, does this mean there might be a live album?

Hey Gang,
Just a quick message regarding Alphi O'Leary. Alphi, whom I met and got
to know at the Fillmore in SF during the "Nothing But the Blues" tour,
was a stellar person. He and I discussed the internal workings and
relationships of EC's inner circle and he foretold of the Roger
Forrester relationship coming to an end several years later.
Friendly, conversive, caring, helpful, kind and sparkling were just a
few words to describe this man. A real gem of a guy!
To echo Scott and Nathan's sentiments, Alphi really did love people ...
man, oh man, did he love talking with, helping and otherwise being a
positive influence in other people's lives.
Keep On Rockin' in that big venue in the sky, Alphi!!
Bill

What sad news about Alphi's passing. I had the pleasure of meeting him
in '92 in Atlanta. He so loved Eric, the band and as
mentioned.......people!!! We had some great conversations during those
weekends. I'll never forget his coming into the lounge one evening with
some of Eric's guitar pics and handing them to me. It was almost as
exciting as meeting Eric, (I melted in the elevator the first time I met
him), and hanging out with the band, which of course includes the most
gracious and wonderful, Nathan East.
I'll never forget Alphi's smiling face and I feel truly blessed for the
little time I spent with him. I think of Alphi every time I pull out
an EC fender guitar pic to show someone or to get a piece of change from
my wallet. Obviously, I have thought of Alphi daily for almost 10 years.
Rest In Peace dear Alphi, and thank you.

I think the record companies have finally decided not
to even make live albums anymore. They spend nothing
making it, spend a bundle marketing it, and then cry
and whine when they don't make back their
money--reason being, only hardcore fans typically buy
them.
We need more Pearljams in the world. A couple of
years ago they released an ENTIRE TOUR, spent nothing
on marketing or packaging, pleased their fans, and
managed to turn over a profit. Whether we ever see
anything like this from Reprise, who knows? But, I
wouldn't cross my fingers.

First, let me give to all my deepest condolences on
the passing of Mr O'Leary. He had a hard job keeping
EC safe all these years, and we all enjoyed that
benefit. That was/is a priceless gift to us, all.
Bless him and his loved ones, always. . .
I love Jools Holland's new album, BIG BAND SMALL WORLD
(that's the US name for it) and was unable to reckon
all of the French lyrics in that one verse of
VALENTINE MOON about reunited old lovers whose love
has always remained constant. If someone would be so
kind as to tell me the words and their meaning it'd be
a great St. Valentine's gift. Many thanks in advance.
And Happy Valentine's Day to all.
