I really enjoyed the Barcelona '84 Soundboard recording I downloaded. Has to be one of the best sounding New Order concert recordings going. Is Valencia '84 upto the same standard?
yeah its good mate,this is what the fella who put the torrent up has to say about it,
The day before the perfect gig (Barcelona '84 - not to be missed, especially the drewc-remaster), this concert wasn't too bad, either. Starting off with a rare outing of "The Him", it also features the standard (for that point in time) EGG-Temptation pairing and an ultra-cool Ultraviolence. The early rendition of "The Perfect Kiss" that closes the proceedings may be riddled by equipment failure at the start, but the band manage to overcome the gremlins and work their way to a perfect climax at 7'07"!!
65 minutes condensed into 12 FLAC-files that amount to 435 MB. This audience recording was yet again provided by TJ; it merits an A- grading. The tape flip occurred between Thieves Like Us and Ultraviolence; the dying keyboard at the end of TLU is abruptly cut short and the very beginning of Ultraviolence is also missing. The Him cuts in after the opening bars, but other than that the recording is complete.
