Hotbox- KZSU Live in Studio?, Stanford Ca 6/8/00 xfer f/ band archive DAT Master/Clone Barry R.K.L.

Another day, another mysterious tape from a collection. This one comes from Barry Ward’s collection, and is labeled like you see in the photos. But this does not sound like a KZSU live in-studio thing at all. Even more mysterious is the gaps between songs. one gap was 8 minutes of silence! The tape is marked live & interview. There is no interview. I tried shazam’ing the songs and only one appears to be released- “Wake the Dead” from Hotbox’ The Salad Days album.
Hotbox had 2 former R.K.L. bandmates- Barry and Chris Rest along with Mel Chappell and Warner Harrison.

Recorded by: KZSU? The Band?

Equipment used: Sony PCM-R500 and M-audio Audiophile 2496 card

Slobberbone- Vera, Gronigen Holland 6/7/00 xfer from DAT-CDR clone complete show alt.country

Hiya- did you miss me? I woke up with severe back pain and a whopper of a headache that was moving into migraine territory. I stumbled to the PC and offed my Napalm Death/Melvins ticket for tonight and laid on the couch. Now I am feeling a lot better and kind of regretting the ticket sale.

Here is one of at least 9 shows that Jan de Bever taped in the summer of 2000- he was a huge SB fan and documented just about every show in his area. He passed away a while back- R.I.P. Jan.

I had the quality on this one rated lower than his usual recordings, so I checked it out. The quality of his recording was great- the problem was that the mix in the room was a bit off. Vocals were buried and guitar was a bit low in the mix. Izotope fixed all of that up.

Rip, prep, and rebalance by Shayne Stacy
