Ka-live-oscope

Dese is all I gots in th' bootleg line. 
You probably have them already, but you won't have the covers, so at least you can make them look purty.


Quality is what we call "variable", but they're fun to spin once in a while.

Newport Folk Festival, Ash Grove, Cambridge, and the Shrine.
If you have other Kaleidoscope live recordings, you may like to contribute to humanity (or the four or five representatives of it who hang out here) by linkage in the comments - but I think this may be all there is.

EDIT: Here's artwork for Bob's Berkeley link in the comments - a short but (seven ate) sweet recording that deserves E.P. picture-sleeve status.

  2. I think most of the lowlife bums who line up at Th' House O' Foam Soup Kitchen To Th' Stars© will already have these, FGW. Live Kaleidoscope recordings seem to be as readily available as they are scarce, if that makes any sense. This was never going to cause a comment tailback.

    Live-a-scope.

  3. I do have one more Live Kaleidoscope - Berkeley Folk Festival, Berkeley, California on July 3, 1967. I believe the original source was a KQED TV broadcast. I recall watching this on TV, but I have no idea where I got the recording. It was many years later.

    3. Egyptian Gardens

  4. There are still 3 tracks I'm looking for. There was a limited release (may be a bootleg) of a 7 inch called "Side Trips Out Takes"

    1. "Down The Road I Go" (outtake) (2:25)
    2. "Egyptian Gardens" (Basic track - Different mix - alternate vocal Performance) (3:06)
    3. "Move On Down The Line" (version Of Pulsating Dream - Basic track - Different mix - Different lyrics) (1:56)

    It also has "Midnight In Moscow" which you included on Kolors.

  7. I have a 3 CD set "Pulsating Dream - The Epic Recordings". This set includes all of Side Trips, Beacon From Mars, Incredible, and Bernice, plus a few scattered tracks. I can upload t here if Mr. Farquhar Throckmorton III would like me to.

    1. Bob, that was compiled by my good friend David Biasotti, and is a worthwhile purchase for any fan. I'll be upping the original albums from my own sources later, providing Four Or Five Guys with the most complete range of Kaleidoscope material anywhere, at a low-tar bitrate that may in itself reverse climate change.

  8. as smart and snarky as you are, I'm surprised that you choose to include one
    Will Farrell on your blog..I rank him as obnoxious as Sting or Paltrow....and real shitheel of a human being...what's up with you and him? Is his "Ron Burgundy" some sort of work of genius? God, I think not. I will keep reading this blog but please, exorcize him....please.

  9. As you suggest, I had all these. But thanks for the artwork. And one may be an audio upgrade to what I had.
