FREE Wayne Hancock LIVE & First Demo
All you Wayne “The Train” Hancock fans, you have just been delivered a gift on a silver platter. The blog A Truer Sound has just made available for download a compilation of Wayne Hancock music that includes a set recorded LIVE at the KUT Studios in Austin, TX on October 9th, 1994, as well as Wayne’s original 8-song demo called “10-10” that he did in 1995. This is a motherload of early Wayne Hancock music, all recorded before his first official album Thunderstorms and Neon Signs.
It’s interesting to note that two of the songs in this collection, “Tropical Blues” and “Working at Working” also appear on Wayne’s latest album Viper of Melody. There’s 24 tracks in all, and the sound quality is superb.

I D/Led the Zip file and extracted the music but I cant get the mp3’s to play.Says they may be corrupted? Any ideas? Should I convert them?
December 22, 2009 @ 10:49 am
Don’t know Scott, seems to be working for most people. Do you use iTunes? iTunes might be converting the files.

Hi,
Great Wayne tunes. I have downloaded them on the computer.
But how to burn them on CD, it says it is not possible, when I press the burn button.
There is a cover for the cdbox included in the download, so I guess it is meant to put on a CD?
October 13, 2010 @ 9:37 am
Well it worked with itunes (after some study). Nice CD!! Saw Wayne last week in a small barn. Great! Even got the chance to talk to him a bit.
Many thanks for the download!!!

May 16, 2012 @ 8:10 am
I’m with you. The link isn’t active. I tried Firefox and Chrome. No dice.

Should be fixed now. I don’t know what happened. I swear, right now I couldn’t fall out of bed and hit the ground.

Thanks, very cool for making this available to all of us. Caught two shows of his last month and it was great. By far, one of my favorite songwriters and performers.

I wouldn’t want to throw a monkey wrench into the mix…however, the recording date of the “Live Set” broadcast is subject to verification. There is solid evidence that the original broadcast date of said show occurred on 23 August 1992. It appears that a limited promotional cassette tape of the broadcast was produced by Wayne Hancock’s (then) late manager/drummer T. J. McFarland, and the late Dan Del Santo.
This tape may have been produced simply has a promotional tool, and circulated in a limited fashion. The tape credits list the above broadcast date, and engineered by Cliff Hargrove. I’m currently researching this information for verification, and pursuing the possibility that an extant original recording of same resides in the UT library, or KUT radio archives for comparison, and other information; through various UT faculty, and library personnel. It’s possible that the original broadcast tape may reveal that what’s currently available here may have been edited, and/or rearranged post production, leaving out station IDs, and PSAs, and maybe interview dialogue. I’ll keep you posted as I learn more.
