i recorded this back 14 years ago with a (now old & unusable) avermedia tv/fm receiver in a pcmcia card.  wow.  anyway, it was a fantastic show which as i recall, i could neither attend nor listen to live.  so (& i don’t remember) it must have been a pleasant surprise at how well this came out.  and it was a super show!  my favorite bits are the set by the great phil ware, with vocals by ian shaw, and joanna macregor & andy shepard, but it’s good start to finish.  i was been relistening to this all day long yesterday & hope you enjoy it as much as i have.

comments:
recorded straight from fm to my laptop, with some inevitable hiss. the encore was cut off, as
i hadn’t set the computer stopped recording too soon (i think i had my times mixed up).

sept-2021:
renamed all files per set lists above & added metadata, but no changes to the underlying music.
created new ffp & md5 checksum files. added cd covers by ‘fastone’, from my 2010 seed on dime,
and a cover.jpg file.

blue goes live from the spiegeltent at the dublin fringe festival, wednesday
september 12th

rté lyric fm presents the blue of the night live, an evening of sublime
music presented by paul herriott on stage and simultaneously broadcast on rté
lyric fm.

it is a unique opportunity to hear music from across the genres including
pianist joanna macgregor and sax player andy shepard who “share an
extraordinary ability to wrest more out of a musical instrument than you’d
have thought possible.”- western daily press.

french composer and musician colleen performs on viola da gamba and guitar
while simultaneously multi-tracking to create music of stunning beauty,
while infectious milongas, tangos and chacareras are to be expected from
quintet lunfardia.

ireland’s finest jazz ensemble the phil ware trio has been a regular on the
show since 2004 and this time they are joined by guest vocalist ian shaw.
there are no musical boundaries when it comes to great music on the blue
of the night live.
