Your Favourite Bootleg Titles?
As we know, bootleggers have been pretty inventive in naming their products. Like artwork, it is a way to make the product more interesting. There are of course several angles one can take giving a recording a title. Sometimes only the source (town, venue, date) make up the title. But better are the ones which refer to either that particular event or tour; and those which appeal to a hard core fan by making a reference to the artist's history. Sometimes you really have to think what the title means. A good example is DP Stuttgart 1993: Naked Thunder Rage. We know the first part comes from Gillan's recent solo album, but 'rage'? Who was enraged, Gillan or Blackers?
Well, the point is not analyze a title to death, but just have a bit of fun.
Name some of your favourite bootleg titles, by any artist. If the title requires specialist information, please explain.
I'll start with a title that inspired this thread. I don't have a copy, but the title made laugh. It is DP Mk3 Sheffield 1974 recording, and the title is
Tales of a Trouser Salesman

Re: Your Favourite Bootleg Titles?
A couple of my favorite boot titles come from the MkVI era:
"Flying In A Purple Dream" & "Emptiness, Eagles & Snow", both from song titles/lyrics, but I always liked them as they seemed somehow to fit the circumstances so very well.

Re: Your Favourite Bootleg Titles?
Good ones, guys. Ed, the original Satch album was Flying in a Blue Dream, so a nice reference there.

Re: Your Favourite Bootleg Titles?
Another favourite would be Mary Lose Gear In Fire. It's bizarre, but is a 'seller' for sure.

Why is it bizarre?
