about

All proceeds to go to Neil Segrott and/or the Headway Brain Injury Charity.

Recorded live in Leicester at -
2, 3, 6, 9 - The Magazine 1994
1, 4, 5, 8 - The Princess Charlotte 1996 (Conway/Styring/Segrott)
7 - The Royal Mail 1996

These recordings are a missing link in the recorded history of Chris Conway & The Talking Fish. Capturing the best tracks from 3 gigs, it also provides a real snapshot into the very lively Leicester music scene at that time.

Half the album features the trio of CC, Simon Styring & Neil Segrott, and the other half adds drummer Alan Flanders.

These were off-the-desk recordings, and apologies to drummer Alan Flanders as the drums were only picked up on the vocal mikes and are very low and muddy in the mix. The Princess Charlotte gig was just the trio with no drums.

A Thousand Miles, Always Flying Home, I Want Something, Cad E Sin Don Te Sin/Lighthouse In A Storm, & Make It Real - were all recorded with Neil, Simon on my 2006 album "Flying Home".

Earth Rising - a proto form of the tune which was recorded on the 2000 album Earth Rising, and includes the Irish tune Bobby Caseys.

Inside Out - was a song I first sang with The Storm Thieves and it is they who recorded it with me on my debut songs album "Sounds Like Rain".

Three In The Morning - was also a song I sang with The Storm Thieves which I released on my 1997 "Storming" album.

So Long Blue - was eventually released on my 2002 "Alien Salad Abduction" album. An instrumental jazz version of this is on the Chris Conway's Happy Landings album "Sky High".

Another Way Of Living - was a song I;d totally forgotten about for years until I rediscovered it and finally recorded it on my 2016 "Out Of The Blue" album.

Flying Home - I had to include this ending from another take of Always Flying Home to capture Simon Styring's stratospheric guitar solo! Another instrumental version of this song is on Chris Conway's Happy Landings 1994 jazz album "Think Blue, Count Two"

------
Chris Conway & The Talking Fish "Live" album was released with a later line-up of the band, recorded at The Musician in 2003.
