Patti Smith, Live Hits

 

“Patti Smith comes bouncing on stage like Muhammad Ali, jumping up and down on the spot, while Lenny Kaye adopts the punk rock strut; legs wide apart, guitar slung low”.

 

It’s an iconic image that epitomises the true spirit and raw energy of punk which comes alive here in an explosive set of her essential hits captured live across the Midwest and the East Coast from 1976-1979. Few women in rock have had as enormous an impact and influence as Patti Smith. The first of the art-punk poets, Smith burst onto the early New York punk scene in 1975 with her seminal album Horses before hooking up with Lenny Kaye and Ivan Kral to produce four iconic albums that still send shivers down the spine nearly 50 years on. Collectively, these albums contain her essential hits and provide the dynamite, but it’s live on stage where it all ignites.

Get Yer Vinyl Out takes you back to the sweat and adrenalin of an iconic era with three fully restored and professionally remastered original FM broadcasts. Presented with background notes and timeline photos.
