Patti Smith - Horses/Horses ( 2005 )
Legacy re-issue of Smith's 1975 debut album together with a 2005 live version featuring Smith fronting an all-star band featuring Lenny Kaye, Flea, Tom Verlaine and other notables doing the album front to back at the Royal Festival Hall. I would imagine she got a warmer reception than she got the first time she played London on the original
Horses tour. The Roundhouse show was packed with a Who's Who of British punk rock including Johnny Rotten who was not impressed. He allegedly walked up to her after the show and shouted: " Horses, horses, horses, horses...HORSESH*T!!!"
Long live rock n' roll.
