Soundboards are a rare thing for the tour supporting Peter Gabrielís third album, also known as
ëMeltí among fans. What is available from the mixing desk is not in stellar quality either
sadly, and the same goes for this particular recording of the Torino gig nearing the wind
down of the tour. However, using several sources, a very listenable release was possible
that gives a somewhat different perspective than being in the audience.
Not changing much throughout the China 1984 tour (which, in true Gabriel tongue-in-cheek
humour, would of course never visit China, nor would it take place in 1984), the setlist
is the usual one, missing ëAnd through the Wireí. ëModern Loveí was actually part of the
set too, but missing on the soundboard recordings of this show, as is pretty much all of
ëI Go Swimmingí, and the ending of ëMilgramís 37í.
Focusing on what has been captured, the show starts off with a long drummachine intro
for ëIntruderí, setting the tone for the rest of the show: dark, raw and gritty. Almost
any track off the third album is featured here, excepting the before mentioned ëAnd
through the Wireí and ëNo Self Controlí, which would only be included from the next tour
on. A great rendition of ëBikoí signals the end of the gig, where apparently a few members
of the crowd are able to catch Gabrielís microphone and decide to join the sing-along
chorus, before this is quickly turned off by the engineer.
After a rousing ëOn the Airí, the crowd is treated to a very pure and raw version of
ëD.I.Y.í, after which Gabriel returns to the stage for one other final song, in the form
of ëHere Comes the Floodí, singing the chorus on the absolute top of his voice.
After this, only a handful of dates in France, Spain and Portugal would be played before
the tour would come to an end.
WHAT WAS DONE?
The process of this remaster is somewhat fading away, since it’s already a few months old
and the entire process is not really clear to me anymore.
What is left in my memory though:
First of all, there is some doubt as to if this is really a soundboard, or just an
audience recording, with almost no crowd noise present. In my opinion this is a soundboard
as some of the sounds are too close and dry in the source to make it an audience recording.
Also, the best proof for me is the fact that I’ve heard of the existence of the master
soundboard tape.
For the remaster, several sources were used. Modern Love and I Go Swimming were played as
well, but not on the soundboard recordings. Most sources around are not pretty, with some
being very distorted, others very generated. The best source I could work with was LC’s
tape, which was a tad hissy, but didn’t have many distortion, making it a lot more
listenable. Also it wasn’t denoised like some other recordings. 2/3 of the remaster comes
from LC’s tape.
Most of the other songs use one of the other complete sources. Mother of Violence is from
a different source, an attrocious source sadly, and it’s quality-wise the low point of
the recording, but I wanted to include it for completeness.
The remastering process included the usual steps I take in remastering, including using
one channel (mono source), equalisation, noise reduction, multiband compression/expanding,
and some slight effects to create a sense of stereo.
THANK YOU TO:
Thanks to LC for generously donating a tape for part of this remaster!
As always, hope you enjoy this remaster!

This is a new digital transfer from the master tapes and 1st generation.
All new original artwork by me, with photos from the 17th thanks to Paul Jonason.
This project started only to add this show, it is missing from the database except for a comment about “3 extra songs from the second night” after 1983-08-16.
http://www.genesis-movement.org/php/showdetails.php?uid=1358
“Sing it like your being paid to do it!”
I do remember making that version for someone last century.
But in trying to make a complete version, my 1st generation was missing BIKO. So I went in search of the master, found Biko and more, but some of the master is still missing. The collections have merged a bit over the years, and the master for all of the first night was found, and some of the master of the 2nd night, the missing tracks 5-13 are patched from my 1st gen tape although not a 1-bit DSD transfer. Some lite EQ was needed to get the two transfers to match up as best as I could. The first show always sounded better, less crowd noise and Peter’s wireless mike was “scratchy” this night, so complete recordings of the 17th were not copied by very many if any.
The audience was drunk and roudy the second show, so Peter played school teacher. The front cover is a shot of him getting them to calm down with “Are you absolutly sure your ready? Then we’ll begin.” as you can see ,”If looks could kill…”
If you never had the experience of Peter crowd surfing over your head, listen closely to “Lay your hands on me”. You hear the crowd get louder as he is handed row by row back 20-25 rows from the stage, then you hear a small “CrUnCh” (the mics are worn over the ears) that is Peter going right over you. The crowd yells in joy again as he is handed up to the next row. This night the crowd was trying to get his jumpsuit off. Never did, but ripped him up a bit.
About the tour patch and for those that did not see the 1983 tour, it was called “Playtime 1988”. The 1980 tour was called “China 1984” and the tour guide was Peter’s version of Chairman Mao’s little red book in 1980.
Endless thanks to everyone that helped to put this together, especially to PG.
This is by the fans for the fans, and NOT FOR SALE.

some notes from Digital Brother Roger
“The 1980 tour, known as the ëChina 1984 Tourí out of derision was possibly one of the most avant-garde tours PG ever emabarked on. This both in terms of sound innovations and visuals with the band accoutred in garage repair men suits. The tour followed the release of PGís third album which is often credited as the first LP to use the now-famous “gated cymballess drum” sound developped by drummer Jerry Marotta.
This RDWM/DB production consists of a two source recording merged together and patching in some places where one of the recordings had holes. The first recording I obtained a copy on cassette from a friend in Geneva who knew the taper but I was never able to find out the name of the taper and what equipment he used. His recording was very clean and complete. It ended up being picked up by Highland Bootlegs under the name: ëPavillion of Memoriesí but it was missing ëHere Comes The Floodí.The second came to me by a taper nicknamed ëMentschí who used
the following gear: Uher 4200 Portable Reel-To-Reel Recorder & Senheisser MD421 Mics. Unfortunately our good friend ëMentschí became very paranoid about security after having smoked a fat joint and the recording suffers from frequent cuts and him moving around from his original location in the hall. The combination of
both sources makes this archive one of the finest sounding audience captures of this remarkable 80 tour.
Thanks to RDWM for his long hours of patience on patching the loose ends. Enjoy! DB”

There are already two EX sources of this show the Andy Banks master and the MMB master this is a alternative source for thoses who like to collect them all.
I believe about 8 people recorded this show and i know someone even videod it about 5 rows down from me i did manage to contact him a few weeks later
and made a trade for it with the video of the night after in Liverpool i sent the video but never got this in return.
So if you are out there upload the video for us all please.
Recorded on main floor, back row left of stage.
We where on the back row Peter walked out at the start of the show right in front of us as we where holding the recorder. He had seen us recording the Birmingham
show the week before he just looked at us and smiled as though to say oh no not you again.
The quality of the recorded is good to very good.
The one tape flip was before Lay Your Hands.
TRACKS:-
I hope you enjoy this show please ask if you want to upload it to other sites as i will be uploading these shows to a couple of other torrent sites.
As Usual Please dont convert to mp3 ( only for your own use if you do ) Please Keep all the info files md5 etc in the folder tis is so that

Hi to all
Welcome to my series of mostly uncirculated masters & very low generation shows that i recorded or received in trades in my younger days most of my masters
have not been circulated or only traded once or twice i used to trade a lot in the 70s – 80s & i have many many shows well in excess of 7,500 tapes
Of these shows about 120 – 150 are my masters they where always on my trading list but not many got traded so i boxed them all up in the late 80s now i have
decided to go through them & upload some of them.
I recorded many bands from Genesis ñ Bowie ñ Springsteen – Hawkwind – Hackett ñ Gabriel ñ Marillion plus many many others i will try & upload a least
one show a week if not two.
To record theses shows i used a Sony portable hand held tape recorder with built in stereo mics. I always used good quality tapes to record on mainly T.D.K.
I used to insert the tape deck in a empty coffee flask with the inside taken out of the flask to get past the security ah those where the days.
The only thing i ask is please donít sell these recording & donít convert to mp3 etc & if you do ( only for your own use ). Please donít change any of the files or
info files etc this is so that people can tell the difference between this source & other sources as many people like to compare different versions of shows.
Also please do not remaster these shows the reason for this is these days there are far to many remasters of shows. Its ok have one remaster etc, but some are
remastered that many times by different people there can be at least 10 different remasters of a show from the same source & it can get a bit tedious.
On to the show for your enjoyment Davros archives presents :-
