Originally posted by Low-Life These gigs were definitely on cassette straight from the mixing desk- has anyone else noticed how many of the songs end abruptly on the recording at the 45 minute mark ? Sunrise on Warrington, Temptation on Atlanta, it is the sign that someone forgot to turn the tape over !

I have noticed. They got some right. Too bad about the others though.

Me and Pete Solitude had a word with Alex about this, and it wasn't a mixer, just a v.good audience recording that hadn't been in circulation before..

Thanks for clearing that up Al. That's good to know, as neither of the two versions of this gig that I have are worth listening to.

Is that mid-80s live LP you mentioned a while back still in the pipeline, Al?

My lips are sealed! :censored:

On the subject of soundboard recordings I have a tape of a 1983 radio interview from Toronto CKLN. On that there are a number of soundboard quality recordings from more than one gig. The 'funhouse bastards' version of Confusion is from NY 1983 but also on the tape is EGG, Hurt, Chosen Time, Temptation, Blue Monday, Leave me alone and Thieves like us. Blue Monday doesn't use the same choice lyrics as were used at NY and the set list and tape list don't match. The tracks are interspersed with a phone interview with Steve Morris so I don't think these tracks are added onto the radio recording.

Does anyone have any idea where the other tracks come from and why, given the comments over bootleggers, the band would 20 years ago give a whole gigs worths of soundboard recordings for public broadcast?
