Bruton Concert, March 1980.

[tim gueguen]

I don't know if this has come up before, but some of the musicians associated with Bruton held a concert on March 29, 1980, and some of the show was actually recorded.  The results were pressed in a very limited edition, labelled The Bruton Concert, listed as BRZ 1,  and given to the participants, but never released commercially.  Here are a couple of examples, posted to YouTube by George Fields.

He seems to have posted the whole album.  If you watch them on YouTube you can look at the accompanying notes and see the musicians involved.

The Balloonist is an adaptation of one of Lamont's scores for the Mr Benn TV series - must do a proper rip of this one day!

I though the catalogue number rang a bell. About 15 years ago I downloaded a share of what claimed to be BRZ 1. It goes by the title of Face Of Danger and is a compilation of 26 Bruton tracks posted by blogger Zoo. The Mediafire link is surprisingly still live and can be found here h***s://artgunsmoneyrecords.blogspot.com/2010/11/bruton-brz-1-face-of-danger.html. The download is, of course, in MP3 format since FLAC hadn't taken a hold back then. Take a peek at the comments and you'll see a few posted by a certain retronic, Stack and Killa.

Yeah I remember the BRZ release featuring a compilation of Briton tracks and got from that blog. Obviously over time as lossless files came about, I replaced the mo3 (original versions) with the FLAC file.

As for the Bruton concert this was a different and ‘official’ one off BRZ release.  Full track listings here but not heard the album in full myself
