Live At The Palace
Blind Melon's Live at the Palace CD reissued with expanded packaging on Capitol/EMI. Recorded in Los Angeles on October 11, 1995, Blind Melon's Live at the Palace CD captured the band at their creative and dynamic peak: the group was touring in support of their second album and had hit its collective stride. It would turn out to be Blind Melon's swan song, as their charismatic frontman Shannon Hoon would only live 10 days longer, felled by drug addiction. Now, the group's surviving members - bassist Brad Smith, guitarists Christopher Thorn and Rogers Stevens and drummer Glen Graham, have updated the CD release with expanded packaging that includes intimate liner notes by Stevens and never-before-seen tour photographs by Danny Clinch. Live at the Palace kicks off with Hoon welcoming their adoptive hometown of Los Angeles by exclaiming, "I had to dress up a little tonight''... it's family night here.'' The band then rips through 12 original songs, including crowd favorites like "Tones Of Home", "Galaxie", "Change" and the inimitable "No Rain". "I can't recall why this show was recorded professionally with a mobile 24-track studio, but I'm glad it was," says Stevens.
