one of my favorite Rock Bottom's is an early BBC one...I have always preferred vinyl recorded to cassette. Tapes tend fail but sound good.
I just got a cheap tube preamp to record and digitize the records.
Lately UFO has been releasing some previous Chrysalis catalog recording with live recordings.
Phenomenon has live in Atlanta and No Heavy Petting has " Live at the Roundhouse "
I just got "Wherewolves of London"
Live at Wolverhampton.
The version of Rock Bottom has the best tone and playing I have heard from Michael. It was recorded during " Walk On Water" 1998. It would have to be his 2205. Super clean tone.
the lead solo isn't as polished, but MS has attitude & something to prove.
Has Chap on guitar too, but, MS rocks it!
