I'm pretty sure that "Hey Ho" means "Hi Ho" as in "Hi Ho Silver" which begat Sweet Bonnie Browniaredatsun wrote: ↑19 Jan 2026 18:40 I wonder what the songs

were ?
I'm surprised. And I just read that he says this in one of the Matrix performances. I'd never have guessed it originated back in Cale's time.falconwhit wrote: ↑20 Jan 2026 06:18I'm pretty sure that "Hey Ho" means "Hi Ho" as in "Hi Ho Silver" which begat Sweet Bonnie Browniaredatsun wrote: ↑19 Jan 2026 18:40 I wonder what the songs

No idea however what the other one would be
Definitely. Any new live VU is great but I'm always guiltily disappointed when it's from 1969. Nothing's ever really going to top Live 1969 and we've had that for 52 years! Every other era of the band is woefully misrepresented by comparison. Some 1968 Cale would be a game changer.lurid wrote: ↑21 Jan 2026 11:23 Is nobody else tired of endless re-boots of re-boots? The original release of the End Cole Ave material was made using digital copies of the original tapes.....why keep on reissuing it!
Bring on some new material - the complete Freeman tape or some of Jamie Klimek's tapes or the long-rumoured but never heard Seattle Trolly Club 1969 soundboard.......
Complete Matrix Tapes definitely tops Live 1969 in my book. (Yes I know there's a fair overlap of material there.)Mark wrote: ↑21 Jan 2026 22:04 Definitely.
