Also this is a fine show. Sound is remarkably good and the music is fine.
These are great recordings – so good that Crystal Cat actually released one of these shows. Very rare for them to release anything they didn’t record themselves, and they’ve certainly never been spotted that far from home.
Yes I was really surprised by the sound quality. Quite wonderful.
ps well worth checking out the recent Thousand Highways’ posts if you haven’t already. Current post is summer 2015 Europe tour. ’89 compilations are very solid, and sources are mostly upgrades on my old tour compilation sets.
As I recall, when I listened to these shows at the time the performances seemed to have a bit more ‘Bob’ in them if you get my meaning. same setlists as the europe 2013 but a bit more variation and nuance in the vocals. Haven’t really checked ’em out again since, but that’s how i remember it
I grabbed them both. Haven’t set down with them yet.
I see what you mean. It seems this way you are only going to be able to download each individual file instead of as a zip. Is that too much hassle?
In my conversation with Amazon today they said they didn’t see any reason why I shouldn’t be able to upload a zip file, but that she’d never heard of anyone doing that. Her suggestion was to use their desktop app and to do what I did which is upload the folders.
I did try to do a zip and it was super slow and did some kind of weird reset in the middle so I gave up. Unless everybody revolts I think I’m gonna have to go unzipped. sorry it that’s super inconvenient. I think you can download multiple files so it should just be a slight annoyance.
I totally hear ya on the individual file thing. Thinking about it I realize that’s why I never go to BigO much as my files get all screwed up as well because I’m terrible at remembering to organize them as I download.
That might work.
I still haven’t had the chance to call them. I used to have a solid state connection then the wife decided to make some arrangements in furniture and I had to slip into wifi. I may see if I can move things around again and get connected. But yeah, it really shouldn’t matter, and it used to not.
I’ll try to make the call tonight and see if they can help. Or maybe I’ll just turn this into a b+p site;)
You are a fortune teller, Dave. I had planned on contacting Amazon tonight. Decided to give it one last go before I did. Decided to try it all zipped up again. Chose a smaller set, about 250 mb. Sent it to the desktop uploader and piddled around a bit. About five minutes later came to look at it and it said it was completed. Totally didn’t believe that, checked the website and it seems to be there. Did a few more and they all worked. Lightning fast too.
I aint gonna dance too much because this may be a fluke, but I’ll allow myself a little joy from it any ways.
I’ll post those shows tomorrow.
