Hello Everybody,
It’s been a while since I’ve shared here.
Ginger01 was kind enough to repost this concert video back in May.
I finally had a chance to see this concert and I really thought Queen were in top form and Freddie’s vocals were on,
so I decided to rip the audio from the MPEG video, split the tracks and share this with you.
I’m not sure how accurate the history is on this , but I believe it goes like this:

VHS>DVD>MPEG movie>DVD files>WAV audio>FLAC Level 8(.fla).

File Size: 505 MB
Audio Quality: Very good audience recording

The Rolling Stones – Hamngbird Disaster – Acoustic Sessions, 1985

The Rolling Stones
Hamngbird Disaster – Acoustic Session 1985
(Shaved Disc)

Liberated boot of demos for the “Dirty Work” album – presumably. Sounds like Keith and Mick having a singalong and working out arrangements. The sound quality is mediocre – clean enough, but so indistinct that it’s hard to make out the words.

The artwork isn’t much help with the titles – can anyone help? Even the album’s title doesn’t make sense!

  1. You’re too much <2:48>
  2. One Hit (To the Body) <7:51>
  3. Broken Hearts for me and you <3:32>
  4. Don’t be cruel (to a Heart that’s true) / Always look on the bright Side of Life <4:49>
  5. Unknown <6:27>
  6. Back on the Streets again <5:21>
  7. Your Love <14:38>

Total time 44:19

  • – To cover the track split at a tape flip here, track 15 was patched in from another tape of this show
    Some microphone break-up in places, but not too intrusive
    This show is presented in glorious mono.

Recording lineage

Unknown recorder, probably Panasonic -> cassette(0) -> copied to Cassette(1)

Playback / Encoding lineage

Technics Cassette Deck -> Alesis Masterlink @ 44.1kHz, 16-bit (track splits, level increase, and patch in track 15)
-> CDR -> EAC to .wav -> TLH to .flac
TLH sez no need to fix SBEs – files already sector-aligned
