The Beach Boys- Pet Sounds Session EPK 1997 xfer from master VHS tape Enhanced R.I.P. Brian Wilson

This is from Todd Nakamine’s collection. I thought this would be super common and online already but I don’t see it anywhere. The audio on this one is really odd. The interview clips are in one channel and the music is in the other. When I was prepping this, I thought that there was a problem with the transfer. Nope, this is clearly a raw one.

Pantera- Sacramento Memorial Auditorium 11/17/97 xfer from 8mm master enhanced fromthenosebleeds

Here is another one I transferred for Gary ( @fromthenosebleeds on youtube). It looks like he has a 3 camera mix of this up on his channel, but this one is his master that I cleaned up with Neat video. SO, take your pick- head over there for a 3 cam or stick around for this one in better quality.

Tanya Donnelly- El Dorado Saloon, Sacramento Ca 11/8/97 xfer from DAT Soundboard Master Belly

I was in the chest o’ DATs last week and this wasn’t what I was looking for, but it caught my eye.
This show is such a funny memory to me- I have been friends with Brian McKenna for 33 years now, and he would always vouch for me when I would talk to the band for taping permission. This time, we kinda steamrolled the poor sound guy. The soundman was all “I don’t know if I should do this” and Brian told him not to worry about it, it will be fine… and we plugged in. See? 25 years later and it was fine.
Tanya’s vocals are so dry in this mix. You usually get some reverb but not on this one. The snare was super high in the raw mix, so I compensated by boosting guitar/bass/vocal and dropping the snare a tiny bit. If you try to drop an instrument more than 1-2db in Izotope, it sounds weird to me.
Anyway, great show from an era that doesn’t seem to have much documentation. There are a grand total of 0 full band Tanya shows from 1997 on the internets.

Barbara Manning- Jugendkulturzentrum Waschtag, Aschaffenburg Germany 11/8/97 xfer from DAT Clone

Holy crap, that is one long venue name. Just FYI, I decided to unlist all of my Youtube videos until the copyright bot heat is off me. You can still access videos from http://www.sacramentomusicarchive.com. I got this in trade- I think the taper is Andreas Claus. Barbara was in Germany A LOT in the late 90s, since her bandmates were there. I never knew there were so many places to play in germany until I saw some of those tour itineraries.

Geraldine Fibbers- TV Munich, Germany 11/6/97 xfer from record company promo VHS master tape

Wow. I snagged this off of Ebay quite a while back and finally got around to digitizing and, it is fantastic! California Tuffy, an interview and Trashman and furs. It sounds so great that it almost seems like it is a lip synch, but I don’t think the studio versions of these songs are this intense. Damn, I wish there was a full set of this.

Beach Boys- Pet Sounds Sessions EPK Electronic Press Kit 1997 xfer from Capitol Records VHS tape

Video today, from Todd Nakamine’s collection. There are so many cool VHS tapes from his collection that come right from the record company’s archives. Tons of VH1 episodes coming as well.

This one has that odd music in one channel, dialog in the other thing happening. I pushed the levels as much as I could but the dialog is still a bit low. Turn it up.

Lots of really cool footage in this one.
