God Street Wednesdays: Irving Plaza ’93

Taper Scott Bernstein continues to release new installments of his BARN series, which features wonderful uncirculated recordings from his collection. BARN release #67 hits right in this column’s wheelhouse.

God Street Wine unveiled a number of new songs towards the end of the Summer of ’93 including Mile by Mile, Into The Sea, Run To You, Ballroom, Bring Back The News and Miss Leonardo. Many of these tunes were performed by the band at Irving Plaza on August 26, 1993. Scott’s recording of this show gives us a taste of how these compositions sounded when first dropped on a hometown crowd. Clearly the boys had spent plenty of time working up the new songs as they seem well-rehearsed and aren’t all that different from the versions that followed over the next few years. Head over to the Live Music Archive to stream or download a crispy recording of a smoking GSW show.

In other God Street news, guitarists Lo Faber and Aaron Maxwell stopped by the Relix offices on December 3rd and performed a few tunes for staffers. You can watch a video of the duo tackling Driving West at Relix.com.
