I talked to HutchFan yesterday and he reminded me about this release. I had just interviewed David Liebman and when he learned where I lived, he invited me to hear him in Nashville. When HutchFan shared that he was playing in Duluth, just northeast of Atlanta, I decided that concert would be less hassle to attend.
I have no idea what the local venue did to promote the concert, but the posters billed the group as Dave Liebman & the Expansions. The turnout was minimal, maybe `15 to 20 at most. Yet David Liebman liked the sound he heard during the soundcheck and asked the board op to record it. Then he called for the band's first ever all electric set. Most of the concert appears on CD 2 of this Whaling City Sound set.
HutchFan was there as well with a friend. The applause at the end of CD 2 had to have been dubbed from another show, though our small audience did there best to give the group a loud round of applause.
