Rod Stewart Live 1976 – 1998 Tonight’s The Night

Live 1976 – 1998 Tonight’s The Night is a compilation live album by Rod Stewart that extends over 4 CDs.

The first disc is all from 1976, the second moves from 1976 to 1981, the third from 1984 to 1989 and the final disc from 1991 to 1998.

This then captures his career as he turned from a rocker with the Faces to a massively successful pop star.

The critical view is that he had “it” in the early 1970s with albums like Every Picture Tells A Story but he was losing it by the time Sailing and Atlantic Crossing appeared in 1975 and it was gone completely by the time that he turned to disco with Do Ya Think I’m Sexy.

That view probably needs to be refined. He continued to produce high quality singles with the odd exception, even if he’d lost that special creativity that he had in his younger days.

Dire Straits On The Night 1992

On The Night is a live album by Dire Straits.

It was recorded at Nîmes in France and Rotterdam in Holland in May 1992 while the group were promoting their final studio album On Every Street.It was released in May 1993.

Their first live album, Alchemy built on the success of the first four very goo studio albums. Then came the over-rated but immensely popular Brothers In Arms in 1985 and then a long wait before On Every Street was released in September 1991.

By then Dire Straits had lost their “coolness” if that’s the right word for what made them special. The On The Night live album has slipped into almost obscurity… an afterthought.

Dire Straits On The Night

Dire Straits On The Night

Set List

  1. Calling Elvis – 10:25 (on the album On Every Street)
  2. Walk of Life – 5:06 (Brothers In Arms)
  3. Heavy Fuel – 5:23 (On Every Street)
  4. Romeo and Juliet – 10:05 (Making Movies)
  5. Private Investigations – 9:43 (Love Over Gold)
  6. Your Latest Trick – 5:35 (Brothers In Arms)
  7. On Every Street – 7:01 (On Every Street)
  8. You and Your Friend – 6:48 (On Every Street)
  9. Money for Nothing – 6:28 (Brothers In Arms)
  10. Brothers in Arms – 8:54 (Brothers In Arms)

Four songs from On Every Street and four more from Brothers In Arms means that there are only two of their old classics that were also on Alchemy featured. It’s a shame that more songs weren’t added when the album was remastered to make it more representative of their concerts.

The band at this stage was:

Mark Knopfler – lead guitar, lead vocals
Phil Palmer – guitar, backing vocals
Paul Franklin – pedal steel guitar
Chris White – saxophone, flute, backing vocals
Alan Clark – keyboards
Guy Fletcher – keyboards, backing vocals
John Illsley – bass guitar, backing vocals
Chris Whitten – drums
Danny Cummings – percussion, backing vocals

This is a highly professional band and I particularly like the addition of saxophone and flute to the songs but then I do have a bias this way.

If you’re not sure what art rock is, it’s a middle ground between classic rock and prog rock where the emphasis is on musical innovation. Where the aim is commercial success, the music becomes AOR.

INXS Live Baby Live 1990/1991

Live Baby Live is a live album by INXS on the tour to promote the studio album X.

It was recorded on their world tour in 1990/91 and released in 1991. This includes some songs from Wembley Stadium in London which would feature in their own live album later.

I saw INXS live several times and they were an exciting band playing popular rock. Lead singer Michael Hutchence had terrific stage presence and even as a heterosexual male, I could understand why so many thought he was extremely sexy.
