"Springtime in New York" is cut (the end of the tape)

Les Amoureux (?) is similar to "The Lovers" ... but in French and with a much slower tempo

2007 Nov 30 Hollywood USA Safari Sams

Unlike any other song JR has written.Incredibly moving.

"I Was Dancin' in the Lesbian Bar" has lots of dancing and guitar flips

The show starts with a fragment of "Egyptian Reggae"

2008 Mar 1 Athens USA 40 Watt Club

A faulty recording here, the sound keeps dropping out from the left and right channels randomly, so not an easy listen.

2008 May 6 Milan Italy La Casa 139

Recording levels seem to have been set too low - a pretty quiet recording.

This track list is slightly incorrect. Jonathan played Behold The Lilies Of The Field between No One Was Like Vermeer and Older Girl.

2008 Oct 10 Chapel Hill USA Local 506

Doesn't seem to get played much anymore, but I love this song

I think this is JR's best album since I'm So Confused.

My mother is in a nursing home so the song As My Mother Lay Lying has special meaning for me.

"Si el Sexo hay que Planificar" is more of an improvisation with a couple of sentences in Spanish

2010 Oct 13 Paris France La Boule Noire

"Celestial" is in Spanish and English. "We'll be the Noise..." is in English and Italian. "If You Want To Leave Our Party" is in English and French

2010 Oct 24 Madrid Spain Casa de America

Jonathan with Tommy Larkins. A top notch recording which includes the new song 'The Door To Bohemia' and a great sounding 'Not So Much To Be Loved As To Love'.

2011 Mar 1 Philadelphia USA 1st Unitarian Church Basement

What could be said about this song? For me it's the epitome of Jonathan Richman

JojoBlog post for the song with a live performance: http://jojofiles.blogspot.com/2011/11/door-to-bohemia.html

I hope that Bohemia shows up on the next album but aren't there quite a few excellent JR songs that never appeared on any of his albums?

Some unreleased recent songs: Mr. Sorrow, Bohemia, Her Love Is From Somewhere Else, Hard Time Saying Goodbye, Italian Party Song, Hebrew Party Song (barbeque), Keith Richards. There's even a few that I'm missing

2011 May 14 Nashville USA The 5 Spot

Creative Alliance at the Patterson. I recorded this and it was a cool show. It was in an auditorium kind of feel as there were chairs setup so everyone sat.

The opening act was not able to appear, so Jonathan started the show early which made the opening part of the concert more fresh or off-the-cuff (cool feel)

A pretty good two set show. With Tommy Larkins

2011 Oct 20 Baltimore USA The Patterson

Bob taped this about 20 feet away from Jonathan

2012 Feb 26 Liverpool UK The Kazimier

The high-e guitar string broke during "A Que Venimos..." and he happily continued playing for another song or two!

At the end JR, announced that there wasn't going to be an encore because he had "said all he wanted to say", and he did in a way that the audience understood. An interesting end to the night

2012 Jun 15 Asheville USA Grey Eagle

Thanks Geno for the setlist! "Parent Pushing Stroller" is a great funny new garage rocker. My Baby Love Love Loves Me is played super fast. This was a great show, tiny stage, JR was super funny and wandering all over the place!
