Rust Never Sleeps
While the base material on the record is taken from concerts, ‘Rust Never
Sleeps’ is not really a live record (a proper document, ‘Live Rust,’ and
its film would arrive in late 1979). Much of the crowd noise, with the exception
of the opening and closing, acoustic/electric takes on the
song, ‘Hey Hey, My My’ has been edited out. There was also a high degree of
overdubbing and studio polishing, as well as the addition of two songs that were
first put to tape much earlier; the 1975 cut ‘Pocohantas’ and ‘Sail
Away’ from the ‘Comes a Time’ sessions.
