The Long Slow Goodbye...with Live Recordings

Hey there loyal Hutson fans who've journeyed back over to this website/blog! As you'll notice, we've changed our URL to www.hutsonmusic.com - That's due to 2 things:

1. We chose not to renew our domain name of 'hutsonrock'

2. And we decided after the fact that, if nothing else, this site was a nice piece of history for us and any fans who wanted to look at it from time to time.

Thus, the new domain name.... Now this also allows us to put up old archival stuff if we want to, as a trip down memory lane from time to time.

Which brings me to the point - If you never got a chance to see a Hutson show, then we have some cool recordings for you below.... We were able to find some old recordings from gigs at the White Eagle and mix them down for your listening pleasure.
       Now, before listening, you have to understand that these recordings come from a small handheld 2 mic recorder placed (roughly) near the sound booth at the White Eagle and literally right behind a crowd of people, so these are definitely a shining example of imperfect live bootleg recordings.
       However, what I felt upon listening back to these songs - amidst the audience banter, occasional muffed lyrics, and a couple of wrong notes... (or jazz, as they call it)...  was a sense that this really is exactly what every Hutson show was.  Sometimes brilliant, sometimes sloppy... but always real.
       Also amongst these recordings, are the only recorded versions of "Saturdays Gone", "Burn It Down", and "Letter to My Brother." These three songs were just about fleshed out in our live sets and would have been recorded for the next album.... So in that regard, these songs are a moment in history of what might have been if the band had continued.

And yeah... Although the recording quality isn't the best, I think these recordings really are a picture of what Hutson was. We hope you enjoy listening to these songs as much as we did playing them. Thank you all again for the countless shows...and for listening.
