Steve Forbert - Romeo's Tune... Live

Following his acclaimed 1978 debut, Alive on Arrival, singer-songwriter Steve Forbert had a rocky ride, enjoying a hit single with Romeo's Tune in 1980 but having an album denied release in 1984. Following long-running contractual disputes, he was finally ready to launch a comeback in 1988, with the release of the superb Streets of This Town album, produced by Bruce Springsteen's bassist Garry Tallent. This stunning live set was taped for broadcast on WNEW-FM, and finds him performing almost all of the album, as well as a selection of other songs. It's presented here with background notes and images.
