Notes |
Recorded at the Brendan Byrne Arena, New Jersey, USA. Great audience recording. From the info file: Roger Waters with Eric clapton Brendan Byrne Arena, New Jersey July 21, 1984 Recorded by Ken G. Audio transferred by Diego T. Audio captured at 48kHz/24 Bit stereo from linear stereo tracks from the VHS masters. Please note that these wave files are not playable on a CD and are much higher quality than that format. This is being offered as 2 full, unindexed wave files representing each half of the show. Setlist: PART ONE Set the Controls Money If Welcome to the Machine Have A Cigar Wish You Were Here Pigs on the Wing In The Flesh Nobody Home Hey You The Gunner’s Dream PART TWO 4.30 AM (Apparently They Were Travelling Abroad) 4.33 AM (Running Shoes) 4.37 AM (Arabs With Knives) 4.39 AM (For The 1st Time Today - Part 2) 4.41 AM (Sexual Revolution) 4.47 AM (The Remains Of Our Love) 4.50 AM (Go Fishing) 4.56 AM (For The 1st Time Today - Part 1) 4.58 AM (Dunroamin, Duncarin, Dunlivin) 5.01 AM (The Pros & Cons Of Hitch Hiking) 5.06 AM (Every Strangers Eyes) Brain Damage / Eclipse (encore) The final track from the Pros & Cons set is missing due to the 1st tape running out. I was given the master VHS tapes while I was in Denver for the 2008 Roger Waters show because I assured Ken that I could extract the audio (linear stereo tracks) from the master VHS tapes. I will be sharing the DVDs of this show shortly as 'Exit 16W' (HRV DVD 016). In the meantime, here's the audio that was captured from the master tapes which sounds like one of the best recordings from the tour! Some notes from Ken: 'Most people don't even know this, but BEFORE there was such a thing as VHS Hi-Fi during one brief period there was plain STEREO. Once Hi-Fi came out they disappeared. But this was 1984. I bought a Hitachi portable deck for $800, a big square thing where the recording unit sat on top of the tuner and was hooked to it with a big cable. You had a separate camera and a 7 pound lead acid battery belt. I used TWO Nakamichi DM-500 mics. The stereo separation is awesome. As far as I know the only way to get the stereo tracks is to play it back on such a machine.' A huge thanks to Ken for trusting us with his masters (more on his story when the DVD is released). Also, a BIG thanks to Diego (team HRV's newest member) for transferring the audio. Diego is professional audio engineer that has over 30 years of experience in his field. Enjoy! RonToon and Ken G.
