“My feeling is, that it is cool f or the people to share ourmusic - as long as no one is making money from the process. We tell the people who come to our concerts that they can tape the show if they want. I think, it is cool that people are so passionate about our music.”

The show was taped on microtapes from a very bad place to tape and with a group of screamer all around. I got the show from Amarok (on U2Torrents) who asked me if i could do the tape transfer. Complete infos about original recording are unknown. Surprisingly, these tapes seems to have been dubbed several time according to the level of damagement of the recording and also the missing beginning. I also have to thank the guy who gaves the tapes to Amarok, i'm sorry, i don't remember his name.
The received show was on two TDK-D60 tapes. Here's a little description of the tapes content :
- 1st side : The odd side. For unknown reasons, tape1 begins with a very crap version of Lakeland 29.02.92,from Zoo Station to Mysterious Ways. The beginning of the san sebastian show is missing then till One.
(one & unchained melody)
- 2nd side : The left channel was damaged around 60% of the recording, i merged the right channel to fix the issue. This part is mono.
(until the end -> satellite of love)
- 3rd side : Very low level but both channels are not damaged.
(bad -> pride)
- 4th side : Nothing on the right channel, i merged the left channel to fix the issue. This part is fully mono. Same low level as on side 3.
(still haven't found -> love is blindness)
there was a terrible level of hiss throughout the recording, especially due to the very low sound level of the tapes. I removed the most i was able to remove without killing the overall sound and avoiding this 'tubular' damaged sound you get when you dehiss too much. There's still a slight background noise when put the sound level higher. There's some sound dropout that i could fix as both right and left channel were damaged. Some sloppy edit remains.
the acoustic set is a total mess, almost unintelligible sound, too often muffled by screams and crowd signing.
Well, as you understood, do not expect a great recording. it's a bad audience recording coming in very bad condition. I was able to listen the show completly after cleaning the sound but believe me, it's not always funny...
Personal sound rating : 3 or 4 / 10
