Thought you guys (if you haven't already!) would like this. Too bad I'm not

C'est la vie, run out there and see! (arrgh...!)

Patti Smith will appear at the downtown NYC Tower Records at 4th and Broadway
on Tuesday, November 8, at 7 p.m., to commemorate the release of
Horses/Horses.
Arrive early--space is limited. This exclusive event with Patti Smith, Lenny
Kaye, Jay Dee Daugherty and Tony Shanahan will include a Q&A, spoken word and
some acoustic songs. Following the performance, Patti Smith and the band will
be signing copies of Horses/Horses, the 2-CD 30th anniversary edition of the
classic Horses album. Each purchase will also include a free, limited edition
Horses/Horses poster.
November 2005 marks the 30th anniversary of the release of Patti Smith's debut
album, Horses, a groundbreaking rock & roll masterpiece which continues its
unparalleled influence on rock music, style and culture.
Arista/Columbia/Legacy Recordings will celebrate this musical milestone with
the release of Horses/Horses, a two-disc Legacy Special Edition of Patti
Smith's debut album, on Tuesday, November 8.
Disc One of Horses/Horses features the original album, in its entirety, along
with the bonus track, Patti's interpretation of the Who's classic "My
Generation." Initially released as the B-side to "Gloria," the first single
from Horses, in 1975, "My Generation" features John Cale, the album's
producer, on bass. The Legacy Special Edition of Horses has been remastered
by Greg Calbi producing superior sound to previous editions of the album.
The second disc of Horses/Horses showcases Patti Smith and her Band--Lenny
Kaye (guitar), Jay Dee Daugherty (drums), Tony Shanahan (bass), Tom Verlaine
(guitar) and featuring Flea from the Red Hot Chili Peppers--performing the
complete Horses album live, with a "My Generation" encore, at the Royal
Festival Hall in London on June 25, 2005. This historic performance of Horses
was the culminating concert at the 2005 Meltdown Festival, which was curated
by Patti Smith.
(Lenny Kaye and Jay Dee Daugherty were both members of the ensemble that
played on the original Horses while Tom Verlaine was a guest artist on the
1975 album).
Horses/Horses comes packaged with a deluxe booklet featuring rare archival
photographs, ephemera, lyrics and documentation of the 2005 concert as well as
Paul Williams' provocative essay on "Gloria."
