Uncle Tupelo- Paradise Theater, Boston Ma. 2/29/92 xfer from band archive audiotape Neil Young SBD

Here’s another board tape from uncle tupelo’s band archive, and it is a doozy. This is from the run with Teenage Fanclub, at the Paradise in Boston. This one is unique because they close the set with the Gang of Four cover PLUS a Neil Young cover.
Not only that, but I tried to find a flyer for this show online and found this article about the show… written by Craig Finn. Could it be THE craig finn/ Sure seems like it, he was at Boston College at the time.

Uncle Tupelo- Philadelphia, Pa. 2/27/92 Xfer from master or 1st gen tape band archive Soundboard

It’s been a little while since I posted a tupelo show, so here is one from that short tour w/Teenage Fanclub in early 1992. Sounds pretty nice, and they close the set with that killer Gang of Four cover “I Found That Essence Rare”.

Jawbox- 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca 2/23/92 xfer from master soundboard cassette 2 songs

I had planned to post something else today but it didn’t look right, so I did what I always do when I am in a pinch for daily content- I hit up Radley Hirsch’s amazing collection of Gilman board tapes. Thanks Radley! I still need to listen to the CD’s you sent btw, they are on my desk.
Anyway, this sounds amazing and it is a bummer that it is only 2 songs. Wish it was longer.

Transfer with one of those tascam pro cassette/cd recorder things

Rancid- Live at 924 Gilman, Berkeley Ca 2/22/92 xfer from 1st gen soundboard cassette rebalanced

Another late post, and another Eggplant tape. This tape only had “Rancid Live at Gilman” written on the outside, so if anyone can help with a date I would accept that help. UPDATE: Thanks to Todd Pritchard’s investigative skills, we now know that it is 2/22/92- they thank Grimple and False Sacrament during the show, and they were on the bill on 2/22/92!
The mix wasn’t great and the vocals were buried, but I did my best to fix it up in Izotope Rx8, the snare is still super low in the mix

Recorded by: Tall Tim

Rebalance in Izotope Rx8: Vocals +5, Drums +4.

Luna- Maxwell’s, Hoboken Nj 2/22/92 DAT Clone xfer 2nd show ever Dean Wareham Galaxie 500

It wasn’t easy getting a post ready for today. The original audio I had prepared would not read from the disc, so I will need to recapture that one. This one was next and Stanley’s drumming dominated the recording, so I rebalanced it… and totally buried the vocals. This is the second rebalance attempt (an hour processing each) and the vocals are still buried but it sounds as good as it is going to get.
I remember getting these in trade from taper Jim Romeo right when they happened and being so excited to hear the new songs.

Sow Belly- Max’s, Eugene Or 2/15/92 xfer from 8mm master tape enhanced

It feels like I have been posting stuff from Craig’s collection for a year now, and it has taken about that long to get it all posted- he filmed a lot back in the 90’s!
This is the 2nd and last video of Sow Belly. This one looks to be the full hour-long set and it sounds pretty good. No distortion!! Thanks Craig for filming and trusting me with your collection.

Redrum- Coconut Teazer, Los Angeles Ca 2/9/92 from band VHS tape enhanced Sacramento Thrash Metal

Another video from Mike Parisi’s bag of VHS tapes. This one comes from the band’s brief reunion in early 1992 w/Don Adams. They played this show and Melarkey’s in Sac, and I think that was about it. I think this was filmed by Scott Capizzano- the tape says “slam cam” on it, so I’m running with it. This is one of the nicer quality redrum videos.
I hope the surviving members of the band (and Robbie, who was travelling with them) don’t mind that I included the pre and post-show footage. There is some really nice footage of Don Adams and Mike Caboy. R.I.P. guys.
