| Notes |
| Recorded at the Westfalenhalle, Dortmund, Germany. Fantastic audience recording. From the info file: Yet another Sirene release sourced from material which appeared in our PF trading circles, so nothing new here for the attentive collector except some Japanese-made 'cleaning' (though it seems Sirene is usually lighter handed on the NR than his fellow Japanese bootleggers). For once the artwork does not mention a limited number of copies. I did a quick check about the sources, and the above mentioned lineage is only speculative, it's what I made out of it, but I'm quite sure of my guess. I couldn't make out if the 01-23 gig was from the claimed master (126:32) or from the longer first gen (131:52). Probably it's from the first gen since it's 128:27, or a mix. Of course thsi is assuming it's from the 3rd taper of that night, but I have no doubt about it. The sound is radically different (and superior) to the 1st recorder, and the 2nd one is incomplete, so... There was only one taper for the 01-24 show, and the timing of this Sirene releases matches perfectly the timing of the 2nd gen transfer (a little over 113min). There's a little longer (119min) 1st gen source also circulating, but I don't think this was the source for the Sirene discs. Again nice packaging and cool idea of Sirene to release the two Dortmund nights, opening of the 1977 In The Flesh Tour, in one box set. But booh bad bad idea to sell it! Good sounding and pleasure listen, but since the same untouched sources are also circulating, you might also want to get the real deal instead (and for free). Thanks to whomever liberated this bootleg. I received those files without info except the artwork, that's why I made this TXT. -Furry_animal |
