NEW ORDER READING FESTIVAL ENGLAND Sunday 29th August 1993 BBC CD

Original notes

At the time, this gig was regarded by many as New Order's swansong; the fact that a good proportion of the audience thought this might be the group's last-ever gig added a special frisson and atmosphere for those of us who were there. Basically it's the same set as the rest of the (fraught)'93 tour but with, I think, a bit of extra fire. The show was broadcast in part by the BBC and other networks round the world. However, this BBC CD, taken straight from a broadcast quality CD (complete with reference to a certain pop star currently undergoing a court case for offences relating to children faded out!) is the complete show with all the songs in the right order. "BLT" and "Dream Attack" are particularly rare, not appearing on the well-known "Electronic Ecstasy" boot,, and will probably not have been heard in this quality before. This is, as far as I know, the first time the complete show* has been distributed, and it's a cracker. Sound quality is superb. I've done absolutely nothing to the files at all, figuring that if it's good enough for Auntie, it don't need no fiddlin' about with. All in all, one of my favourite-ever NO gigs. (*the only bit that are missing are a few short bits of between-song "banter" )

thank you, i downloaded dream attack and BLT. The sound on electronic ecstasy is better.

:)

The torrent for Electronic Ecstacy has been available for quite sometime. Excellent live audio album!
Although I haven't seen the video. I'm sure it's in youtube, but i'll check it out some other time.

Indeed!

But Electronic Ecstasy is from the FM broadcast, which means it's compressed, whereas the BBC transcription disc is not.

I can't get on Dime... :(

Anyone got this whole thing with the deleted files?

I have a recording of the whole show, but I think it may be sourced from a tape somewhere in its history.

Also, still looking for the BBC transcription disc of Glastonbury 1987.

You just need to keep trying. The Dime people regularly clear out and delete old and dormant accounts, so new ones become available often. Try every day, at different times, and you'll get there. It took me under a fortnight, and I never looked back. My house is slowly filling up with masses of music from Dime, and I love it!

I am currently cleaning my house to it on full blast.

For some reason I just feel so sad listening to it. This has never happened to me with New Order.
