I'll keep you posted as to when I expect them to come back up.

In the meantime, my sincerest apologies to my out-of-town and at-work listeners who depend upon our web stream.

This sucks, in a very, very serious way.

Today’s Boot of the Week isn’t a boot per se. It’s an out-of-print limited edition cassette boxed set of mostly classic film-noir themes performed on electronic instruments. It comes to you courtesy of WFMU’s “Beware of the Blog”.

Live at my Father's Place, NY - on a Tuesday in Feb 1976

05 untitled

David Sancious - keyboards, 12 & 6 string Guitars, Sitar guitar
Gerald Carboy - bass
Ernest "boom" Carter - Drums and Percussion

Before David became a solo artist, he was the heart and soul of Bruce Springsteen’s E Street band. In fact it was at David’s house - the only band member's house on E street - where the band rehearsed.

After recording 2 albums and a hit single with Bruce ("Born To Run"), David ventured out on his own. David was quickly picked up by Epic records in 1975.

When David's solo career came to a pause in 1980, he turned to session work and touring. Jon Anderson of YES fame picked David up for an album and tour in 1981-82. Peter Gabriel picked him up for an album and tour in 1986-87. Sting employed David's talents for several years between 1990 and 1993. Then in the early 2000s, Eric Clapton picked David up for a world tour. His first album, "Forest of Feeling," was re-released on CD in the 1990s but deleted shortly thereafter.

In 2002 David started releasing some new solo material. He also acquired back the publishing rights to several of his albums that he signed away back when he was with Epic and Arista. His releases, "Just as I Thought," and, "True Stories," have been remastered and re-released on CD and can be found on Amazon.com and on CDbaby.com. The world is still waiting for his masterpieces, "Transformation," and, "Dance of the Age of Enlightenment," to finally be released on CD. Bootleg CD copies of, "Transformation," have surfaced on Ebay.
