Lyle Lovett & John Hiatt - live in Zurich, Switzerland 2/01/10

Wow - Lovett & Hiatt together in an acoustic setting.....now how sweet is that!??
Saw them a few weeks ago at Casino Rama (Ontario). Wasn't sure how is was gonna go in such an "area" style hall (1500+), but I need't have worried. Just two great singer/songerwriters doing there thing......and it was great!!! Really - how could you go wrong?

The week after show, just for kicks I thought I'd sniff around to see if anyone happened to capture it. Then I found this show - ironically almost a year old to the day. Was really please when I found out the quality was so high on the recording - a 9+ out of 10 in my books.

NOTE: this show was recorded in flac format. Despite a request from original recorder/poster, I have converted it to MP3's. My hats go off to him for all his great work on this set. However, I feel music in meant to be shared with others (especially such a great show as this....!) and I know friends who would enjoy this. So the deed is done.......enjoy....! Trax are as follows:

01) JH: Drive South
02) LL: LA County

04) LL: I Will Rise Up
05) JH: Walk On

Personally, I'm going to edit out some of the talk/kibitzing on here, and likely trim a few to fit it on one CD. But feel free to do what u like w/ it.....I'm just an old dinasour....!
