Sonny Liston with third man theme

[JF]

I remember few weeks ago someone posted on GF forum a link to a Sonny Liston 2011 version which contained the third man theme.
I can't find it anymore
can someone post it again please ?

According to Guy's forum, it was the Luxembourg version:

I caught a bootleg of SONNY LISTON at Rockhal Luxembourg - 10.21.2011" Mark plays the new blue Gibson. Well to my ear this guitar sounds fabulous at this venue with this song. We even got a touch of The third Man film theme at one stage!

Many thanks Superval 

Well I don't hear the third man theme at all

 


or is it at 5:27 ?

 

well I don't think it's a volontary quote, it's just 3 continued notes


stranger in the night at the end of Calling Elvis in 2001 was a real quote
(or was it a Hendrix quote ? as Jimi played it at the end of Wild thing  )

[superval99]

It may be the phrase around 6.02, but it's very vague!    BTW Don't forget the post on the forum was from dear old Roland!

Well if it's this lick, it's not special for the Luxembourg gig, Mark play it on all versions in 2011, and also on the last tour where he played the song, 2008 if memory serves ?
And I guess he even played it already in 2006, on live roadrunning

And I don't know who is "dear old Roland", but I won't joke about age for sure, I'm not very young too

Hey, there's sort of an extra solo in there. Cool.

[superval99]

Yes, I know it's played on every version, but Roland may not have heard it before.    I affectionately called him "dear, old Roland" - he posts frequently on Guy's forum and probably isn't old at all, but his posts can be quite entertaining, to say the least!  

[Pottel]

always wonder what his beef is.
mr. know-it-all really.

[Love Expresso]

In the meantime, I pity him a little bit to be honest. He seems to feel very much at home at Guy's forum without being too much noticed by Guy. But then again, one could say the same about me...

I'm 99.999999% percent sure that's not a musical quote. Mark is just moving the chord down and up a half step. Just good ol' Roland with his very odd comments. I still prefer him though over the Brazilians ... Will some of those guys EVER learn? Sorry, didn't mean to get started.

[JF]

I agree Jackal, I'm 100% sure 

[Pottel]

agree with jackal too...

Whats wrong with Brasil (or brasilians) dude?

[Jackal]

ferguitar, don't know if you follow Guy Fletcher's forum. If you see what a number of Brazilians post, you'll understand.

I've always felt sorry for the South American fans where MK obviously has quite a large fan base.  They've only ever had one visit from MK (in 2001) and from the sound of the bootlegs they were very enthousiastic.  They've stayed loyal all that time despite having very different styles of music available to them.  If, from time to time some people seem rude we must try to understand other cultures where it may not be deemed rude.

I also feel sorry for our Australasian cousins who have been ignored lately.
