40th Anniversary Live Album On 180g Vinyl LP!
In 2014, the Steve Miller Band celebrated the 40th anniversary of their 1973 breakthrough album with the release of the live and in concert version of the album, The Joker Live In Concert. The album was recorded during the band's tours in the mid-2000s.
"When several friends and colleagues reminded me that it was the 40th birthday of The Joker album, I smiled-and started playing the whole album's songs live again," Steve Miller said in a press release. "And at the end of the last tour realized we had a great new record that we wanted to share with our fans. We hope you like it as much as we did playing and recording it."
"...Cut with his touring band of the mid-2000s -- an outfit featuring bassist Kenny Lee Lewis, drummer Gordy Knudtson, keyboardist Joseph Wooten, guitarist Jacob Petersen, and vocalist Sonny Charles -- The Joker Live in Concert does indeed contain all nine songs from The Joker, but the running order is shuffled so the tunes work as a concert experience: it opens with the steady-rolling blues of 'Come On In My Kitchen' and builds to the closing sequence of 'Your Cash Ain't Nothin' But Trash,' 'Sugar Babe,' and 'The Joker,' the latter originally opening the album's second side but nevertheless an obvious choice for a closing selection..." - allmusic.com
