      Does anyone have some suggestions of good Live/Demo recordings that are out their? I tend to find alot of them rock more than the actual sides... Like the Jerry Mcain Excello Demos or Bob Keanes Ritchie Valens recordings... Jerry Lee Lewis Live at the Star Club... That cool New York Dolls demo album on norton etc.
      I haven't heard the Buddy Holly Apartment tapes, but hear they're pretty cool, has anyone re-issued em?
      Any genre really... But I'm especialy lookin' fer Old 50's Rock and roll/RNB hoots...

I got Charlie Feathers demos comin out my wazoo, but I'll probly pick up them new norton discs at some point, theirs a few I ain't got on 'em... Yeah, the Johhny Burnette wampus cat/crazy date stuffs fantastic!

      Television has a buncha great ones... demos- Double Exposure, live - the Blow Up with what I consider the essential version of Little Johnny Jewel...

      of course for jaw dropping live stuff, there's the Velvet Underground Gymnasium boot... I swear "Sister Ray" will leave you humping air!

      I've been listening to these 2 a lot recently...

      Rocky Erickson and the Aliens - Halloween (Norton 2xLP)
      David Bowie - Live in Santa Monica '72 (2xLP)

      The Beatles - Esher Demos from the White Album are pretty cool too.
      Johnny Burnette - Wampus Cat & Crazy Date (2 LPs of Johnny and Dorsey Burnnette Demos from Norton. I like these a lot.)
      Johnny Cash - Live at Town Hall Party '58 & '59 (2 LPs from Sundazed. The sound quality lacks a little, but otherwise these are a lot of fun to listen to. Sundazed also has recordings from Wanda Jackson, Eddie Cochran, Gene Vincent... It's worth checking out the whole Town Hall Party series)

      The series of Charlie Feathers albums Norton put out recently are worth checking out if you don't already have them too (Long Time Ago, Honky Tonk Kind, and Wild Side Of Life) Alot of them are home recordings so they sort have a live/demo feel to them.
