shake a leg
I did here that brian only did shake a leg a couple of times cos it was such a hard song to sing live. does anyone know it there is a boot with it on
I'd have to take a look at the mp3s I have that have live versions of the Back In Black songs. And I'll check the Backfire tracklisting.
as far as i know, there isn't a boot circulating with it on.
I have the Shake A Leg lyrics on my computer, and that is indeed a hard song to sing, a lot of syllables, and not enough breaks.
THATS TOO BAD SHAKE A LEG IS KILLER BUT SO IS THE 10 SONGS ON THE BACK IN BLACK CD. BESIDES SHAKE A LEG...WHAT OTHERBIB SONG WAS NEVER PLAYED LIVE??
Let Me Put My Love into You wasn't played, as far as I can remember. The rest were played at one time or another. As far as Shake a Leg being a tough song to sing, I believe it is the pitch & key that Brian has to sing it in that makes it so hard. (forgive my lack of knowledge on the correct musical terms). On the new Back in Black DVD, it's mentioned that part of the song starts near the top of Brian's range, and then continues to go up from there. I don't remember it word for word, but I do remember that he had a hard time recording it in the studio.
I did see a picture somewhere (on one of the sites with lots of pictures of the band for sale) of a setlist that originally had Shake a Leg as an encore, but it was scrapped most likely.
great picture!! Hells Bells is an awesome concert opener!! would like that again but they have so many good opening numbers to choose from.
