Pet Shop Boys - left to my own devices live at the mermaid theatre, 2006
"Recorded at London's Mermaid Theatre for Radio 2 in May 2006, Concrete offers grandiose orchestral arrangements not just of songs from current studio album Fundamental but many of the duo's most memorable hits from their quarter-century spanning career too. The album's most striking characteristic is evident at the close of the first track. Tennant, already comfortable with the dual role of lyricist and vocalist, becomes narrator of his own career too with a range of plummy vignettes about each of the songs."
The Moody Blues - ride my see-saw live at red rocks, 1993
"Ride My See-Saw," originally written by bassist John Lodge and released as a single from the band's 1968 album In Search of the Lost Chord, closes the concert as the explosive encore. The song's themes of life's ups and downs (using the see-saw metaphor) blend psychedelic rock with driving rhythms and the Moody Blues' signature spoken-word intro."
