LTIA Quintet Bootleg Amnesty
:: Posted by Sid Smith on Thu., Apr 5, 2012
The 40th Anniversary edition of Larks' Tongues In Aspic is currently being prepared and DGM and Panegyric are currently on the hunt for any previously unheard in-concert recordings of the LTIA quintet (with Jamie Muir) from their only UK tour.

It’s primarily first generation recordings only that the team are looking for. That said if you reckon you have a better quality boot to the one’s that are already out there then get in touch as well.

If you are in contact with anyone holding on to such items please let them know and we’ll arrange to transfer the recording and let them have their original back.

In addition to audience recordings, we are also looking for any eye-witness accounts of anyone who saw the LTIA quintet in concert.

If you think you can help with either of the above items - LTIA quintet only - then please drop us a line via soundrequests@dgmlive.com
