Joining a growing trend, Tori Amos has taken the plunge into officially sanctioned live recordings, of which she plans to release six this year. The Web site ToriAmosBootlegs.com has been established for the distribution of the double-disc sets, which will stem from recordings made on this spring's Original Sinsuality solo tour.

Of the first batch, one was recorded April 15 at Chicago's Auditorium Theatre, while the other is taken from an April 25 show at Los Angeles' Royce Hall Auditorium. Each includes performances of songs from Amos' most recent Epic release, "The Beekeeper," as well as favorites and rarities from her catalog. Also featured is an interesting crop of covers, with the Chicago show yielding versions of Jim Croce's "Operator" and Joni Mitchell's "Circle Game," while the L.A. show features takes on Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer" and Jules Shear's "All Through the Night." As previously reported, tonight Amos will open her Summer of Sin North American tour in Atlanta.

I was at the LA show...and let me tell you...it was pure brilliance. Amazing. Several of those songs I didn't care for or hadn't heard much of and now almost every one of them is a favorite from her new album and catalogue (save "Twinkle"). Any Tori fan should have that one fo sho. I'll leave it alone babe...just be me | |

i'm all for artists doing this, so the fans get to give the artist money instead of everyone getting ripped off by bootleggers - at the end of the day, most fans trade with other fans, anyway - though i have to say i'm a little "eh" about recordings of multiple shows being available. the pixies do something similar, but really, you only need to get ONE of their live discs because every show's pretty much the same, and you really HAVE to be there in order to appreciate what you're hearing... | |

i agree w/ you on the Pixies, but with Tori its different because her sets change dramatically from night to night. I think 6 is a good number, because between all the releases it should cover at least 75% of the different songs she is playing on the tour. | |

The cover art.
Just a logical guess, but based on these 2, I'd imagine the remaining four will be yellow, green, blue and violet. | |

And the first gig of her Summer of Sin tour was tonight. Looks like she took the time off to dust off some more songs.
