10,000 Maniacs’ “The Wishing Chair” L.P. will celebrate its 30th anniversary this year
(original release date – September 23, 1985). Since it seems apparent that the Maniacs
are not being given the remaster / bonus tracks / box set treatment that they so richly
deserve, I’ve decided to upload all of my 70+ live and rare 10,000 Maniacs recordings
during the coming weeks. Although many of these recordings will be re-seeds of previous
Dime torrents, a substantial number have never appeared on the Dime (and many others
haven’t been shared since the Dime’s previous incarnation as “easytree.org” circa 2005).

Enjoy!

2015 re-seed

This is one of my favorite 10,000 Maniacs performances. I believe that this recording was taken from the soundboard, but over
the course of many generations it has lost some of its original clarity. Nevertheless, it’s essential for any Maniacs fan –
this show really has it all. There are unreleased songs (including the premier of “John’s Bluegrass Song”, aka “Coldest Beer
in Town”), rare cover versions, and even a bomb threat evacuation!

Please take a moment to listen to the sample of “Wasn’t Born to Follow”. Robert Buck’s guitar solo is amazing, not necessarily
in terms of its technical quality (although it’s quite good) but in terms of the joy that it brings to the song. In my opinion
Robert was very much the equal of my other two favorite guitarists, the Edge and Peter Buck. Every time I hear this song I’m
reminded of the tremendous void created by his death.

I would love an upgrade of this recording, so if anyone has a lower-generation copy then by all means please share it!

This is an average audience recording from the “Wishing Chair” tour. It includes several songs
that would later turn up on the “Lost Songs” demo, including “G Suspended”, “Thompson’s March”,
and “Angels of Stone”.

Most noteworthy is the cover of Carole King’s “Wasn’t Born to Follow”, played at breakneck
speed. Unfortunately the band only performed this song a handful of times, and this is one of
only three recordings in my collection (a slightly better version was played in Portland a few
days later, and then again in New York City in July 1986).

Title: 10,000 Maniacs “Lost Songs” (March 1986 studio demos) – SB/FLAC
Size: 193.25 MB
Category: Alternate
Uploaded by: judgesmails

This is a set of 1986 demos that bridge the gap between 10,000 Maniacs’ “The Wishing
Chair” and “In My Tribe” albums. John Lombardo was still with the band at this point,
but he left soon after. Evidently these demos were provided to Elektra Records, who
said ‘thanks but no thanks’. The band returned to the studio and produced “In My Tribe”,
and the rest is history.

Many of these songs were performed live during the Maniacs’ Spring 1986 tour: “Thompson’s
March”, “Angels of Stone”, “G Suspended”, “Folie a Deux”, “Coldest Beer in Town”, and
even “D Ballad” cropped up at one point or another. However, by Fall 1986 all had been
dropped from the set in favor of early versions of “Tribe” songs.

Eventually several of these songs saw the light of day elsewhere. “Angels of Stone”
and “Azalea Festival” each were re-recorded by John & Mary, while “G Suspended” evolved
into “Poison in the Well” and “Folie a Deux” became “The Lion’s Share” (both on the
Maniacs’ “Blind Man’s Zoo” album).

Fall Break

Hey gang, I’m gonna take a break for a little while. This year has taken a toll on my psyche as I’m sure it has yours and I need to back away from this blog and other things for a little bit.

I’ve been thinking about a break for awhile and changes at WordPress have forced it upon me. I won’t go too far into the details but they’ve made me switch to a new editor and I hate it. I can make it work and maybe in time I’ll get used to it, but right now I just want to toss it in the river.

I’m seriously thinking about dropping WordPress all together, but that means I need to find something else. The thought of starting a new blog on another platform is not at all appealing as it would mean recreating all the posts. I may just share my entire Amazon Drive and forget about daily posts altogether. You wouldn’t be able to comment but you could still grab all the shows.

Or I may switch to Google Drive or Mega as they are cheaper than Amazon and would allow you to read the text files before you download. Or maybe I’ll get over my hate of WordPress and things will go back to normal.

I don’t know how long this break will last. I need to let things settle down and think about my next steps. It will be at least a week maybe a few. Don’t worry I still plan to share this music in one way or another.

Until then, enjoy what I’ve already posted. Good listening.

OldNeumanntapr Notes;
I had just recently sold my Nakamichi CM 300s to my friend Taper Ron so I could upgrade to Neumann KM 184s, which were my first pair of Neumann microphones. (I sold them in early 1999 and bought the Neumann KM 140s with active cables because even with custom-made shortened XLR cables the KM 184s were just too hard to hide for stealth shows, which were the majority of the concerts that I recorded. I did not yet have my own Tascam DA-P1 DAT recorder, and I needed something to supply phantom power for the microphones, so my friend Jack in Salt Lake City shipped me his Tascam to use for the show. I recorded this up on the lawn, where I had recorded many shows at Shoreline, so I could take advantage of the repeater towers.
