| Notes |
| Recorded at the Apollo Theatre, Manchester, UK. Transfer from LP. Good audience recording. From the info file: LDB Special Series #110 Out of my 7,000+ shows and radio broadcasts, I have many concerts that were special for some reasons: the setlist, the musicians, the venue or unexpected events. These are the ones I'd like to propose you. Most of these come from my cassettes collection, so they will be released at a slower pace than my Master Series! But you won't be disappointed! I will try to gather the most unusual things I have in my collection and, as always, your feedback and comments will be my reward for all the work involved in this project. DO NOT share this music on mp3, just convert it for your own use. Sharing mp3's is the right way to make me stop sharing music here.

(1988) This album, a two-record set from our old familiar NYC-based bootleg outfit, is exactly what it claims to be. The record is not as complete a record of the Tour programme as the bootleg 2-LP set of the Bristol concert (which is a virtually unedited copy of the entire concert), since it only contains twenty tracks, and some though not all of the incidental music and prose-readings are missing. But it is a different performance, and Kate and the band are in unusually fine form. The sound is boomy on the bottom and weak on the treble, but it still manages to create a strong atmosphere and presence, and the album, overall, is considerably more listenable than, say, the Paris concert bootlegs, which have extremely muffled and distant sound. 'Moving' is extremely beautiful and ethereal in this performance. I have edited this one by adding more treble making it less boomy. This comes from a direct rip of the vinyl that I bought many years ago. Kate's live shows are extremely rare, so I thought you would enjoy it. ldb |
