Since a lot of focus was on Black Sabbath’s day long festival, I figured that I would wait until it was over, and also post something non-metal for today’s on this date in history. This one will do.
Jonathan loaned me his tapes back in the late 90s (thank you) and I “digitized” them my lining my Nakamichi deck into a new (at the time) philips CD recorder- the high end CDR-880! That thing cost a LOT of money at the time, but it did a nice job recording CD’s. We had this trick where we would insert one of the expensive CD recorder CD’s, let it read it and then pull the disc tray out and replace the disc with a standard CDR, which was about 10 times cheaper!
This show took place a few months before I discovered the band. I would have loved to see them at Starry Plough. I did get to see them at Pappy and Harriets, so that is a close approximation.
This tape had some harsh and slightly distorted high end. I did my best to EQ it out while keeping the crispness of the highs intact. It does have an odd swirly high end sound now.
