That was a concert with limited seating, at Casino Caldes (Barcelona) and there were no entries for days, we knew. That the "Set Electric" would accompany, was not new. That would be the recording of his best songs with the singles and solo, plus some new, it was known by everyone. That Miqui Puig was going to be so great... To deceive us: also knew.
His unconditional could enjoy his latest songs with simple, as "Viva Acid House", "Nothing New" or "Drama", some of his timeless hits, as "Pretty Is" (rather novel version, voice of Primitivo and second take included) or "Not So No" and the hits of his last solo album Coincidences such as "I Love You I Love You Now and Then" or "Strongly Favor".
The cries of "Capote!"After putting on glasses to symbolize his new album, or the cheers of "Brian Ferry Catalan You" or "You're our Morrissey", entire audience jumped, danced and chanted every word of every song. One of those moments of the evening came when a good friend appeared orange hair called Alaska, to star in a duet of "The soundtrack to a part of my life".
A Miqui delivered, plethoric, excited, superhuman, superb, with that voice so personal, from funk to rock, not forgetting those pop and electronic databases that the Body Electric as well accompanied by a string quartet, to the delight of all those greedy ears. Became an overnight recording in a concert to remember, in a concert straight to memory. via popes80.com
