One of my faves!
I love Al Stewart too, MS.
I only saw him once; at the Coach House in San Juan Capistrano. IIRC, he played ahead of Donovan that night. That was my favorite place to see a show - steak, full bar, nobody stressed if you puffed in the bathroom - great acts in a small dark venue. Black Crowes killed it there too; saw 'em right when "Hard to Handle" hit the airwaves.
Got pulled over leaving the Al Stewart show because the path leading to the Coach House is an unlit dirt road (at least, it used to be); wasn't "drunk" but definitely buzzed and shouldn't have been driving. Luckily, the PD let my boyfriend take the wheel. Dodged a bullet; it was stupid. Great show though.
Definitely living in the past today...
Another great one of his, Time Passages:
