Hi everyone,
I think this was asked here before. Did the Utah Saints ever record this cover? Or they just played it live? In any case, I've been desperately looking for this for years -in vain. Would anyone light the end of this tunnel?

Thank you.

Thank you Dan. :notworthy:

I'm afraid I'm looking for either a possible studio version or a "good" live recording. I already had this "Off The Street" portion.

they also recorded a studio version of the track for the "off the streets" benefit album, which featured lots of bizarre "duets" covering the song

The best version I've heard is from the broadcast of the Barrowlands gig in 93 - Radio 6 have played it at least once. Same songs/versions to what was played at the AE show.

I never want to hear the NMA vs Tom Jones one! :urff:

You read my mind, Phoenix 93 is what I've been looking for all these years. If you did that, I would eternally thank you. :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: :D :D :D :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

as MP3 coding, quiet in comparison to the tape it has come off but that's only because i'm still learning how to use Nero Wave Editor. Will try to improve it.

thought i'd done the Phoenix gig tonight, but no, apparently i didn't press the correct button, so on we go again tomorrow :?

Did you ever manage to find the recording of New Gold Dream from that source. As your recording starts with Gimme Shelter and continues to the end of the gig with the final Utah Saints song I'm assuming the person recording turned over the tape (as around 40-odd minutes would have elapsed) after New Gold Dream. Someone has withheld the other side of the tape.

Is this Gimme Shelter? It's labeled as: "off the streets

Off the Streets was the benefit gig that the recording is from.
