Lyrics by Roye, Mo & Mick.
A NEKTAR composition.
|
The 2004 remastered cds combined the two vinyl albums "Live In New York" and "More Live In New York"
finally
giving us the complete ACADEMY of MUSIC concert from start to finish on one
album.
The SACD version contains an extra track of Remember The Future part 1 that was
from the original broadcast by WNEW FM radio station with Scott Muny. While
performing this song a power failure occurred when crew member Tommi Jung hung
his coat up on the main power switch causing the show to stop. After the power
was restored and a few comments by the band members, Nektar started restarted
the song from where they left off at eventually ending the concert after
performing three encores." Encore one was: "Crying In The Dark / King Of
Twilight," Encore two consisted of "Women Trouble" and the "Rock 'N' Roll
Medley" with Taff adding some special effects while performing his solo at the
end of the song, and the third encore was "Fidgety Queen." Throughout the show
Roye blew the audience away with several hot solos especially at the end of "Let
It Grow. When you hear the audience gasping and wowing while playing this album,
Mick was performing his spectacular magic with his lights and movies bringing
the "Nektar Light and Sound Theatre" to life. The New Yorkers never saw anything
like this and were completely flabbergasted as well as the WNEW disc jockeys in
attendance that night who by the way were having a very hard time explaining
what their "Ears were hearing and their Eyes were seeing" to their listening
audience. All concert goers let their delight be known and looked forward to
seeing this spectacular band over and over.
