ROBERT'S RECOMMENDATIONS - SOUNDBOARD BOOTS
Very good show from Bryan's first US headline date. Contains several tracks he doesn't do live anymore. If you're looking for heavier tracks with great energy you'll find it in songs like "You Want You Got It" and "I'm Ready". A must for collectors.

* Note: There are two different bootlegs called "Straight from the heart", the other one contains thirteen tracks from the Marquee show.
Brilliant show, from about the same time as the official live album "Live, live
, live", only better. Bryan sings very well on most of the tracks. The versions of
"Diana", "Hearts on fire", and "Native son" are the best live cuts I've heard of
them. Interesting electric version of "Into the fire" included. Greatly
recommended.
There are alternatively titled boots containing this recording, however with different numbers of included
tracks.

Straight From The Heart
Another one with good sound quality. The tracks however are almost identical to the Marquee show, and most of them are lesser good versions compared to Marquee. The vocals are not quite the same either. Still a good show though. The audience participation in "Heaven" is some of the loudest I've heard.

Another soundboard boot with some newer materialīthan the previously
mentioned. A little strong bass perhaps, but otherwise usual soundboard
quality. House Arrest
Radio show from the european '96 summer tour. A pretty good show, with
decent sound quality. Bryan makes a cool attempt imatating Tina Turner's
original vocals in "It's Only Love". Including three covers of oldies. For
some strange reason has "Karlsruhe Blues" been dropped from the original
radio recording, instead some unexpected bonus tracks are included - for
instance "Everything I Do" in spanish as well as the original single
versions of "Rock Steady" and "All For Love" (!). DISC ONE
The Only Thing That Looks Good On Me Is You
DISC TWO
(Everything I Do) I Do It For You
Bonus Tracks:
Rock Steady (single version)
A radioshow from the last date of the european '96 tour. Great sound
quality. Romours indicated that it
originally was intended to be officially released as a live album. Instead
some of the recorded songs have ended up on CD-singles. * = Also
released on CD-singles, see the the Discography for
details. DISC ONE

DISC TWO
Introduction
THE SECRET SHOW - NOT A SOUNDBOARD BOOT
This is an audience recording, and the quality is there after. It's listenable, but
the audience unfortunately
sings along a little too much, which makes Bryan's vocals almost drown. But what great material to have!
The recording is made in Barcelona in 1991 and features only covers of oldies except for "Summer of
'69". Bryan is really the man to do especially heavier oldies like "Wild thing" and "Twist and shout".
He also gives new dimensions to songs like "Come together" and "Rebel Rebel". I have thought a long
time he ought to do a cover album, now I think it should also be a live album. Will we ever see it?
