Here’s one those interesting long March 1985 shows with Crazy
Horse and parts of the International Harvesters both touring with
Neil. Actually, its three shows in one. A Harvesters set, a solo
set and then a Crazy Horse set. This includes the rarely played
Misfits, Once An Angel, Hillbilly Band and a possibly unique
Midnight On The Bay on piano.

Lineage: Audience cassette master > 1st gen cassette > DAT > CDR > EAC(secure) >
Protools (tape flip cleanup and some minor retracking) > flac(8)

I’ve never seen digital copies directly from the master in
circulation, so I think this is as good as it gets.

18. Maddox Table
19. Tension

This is an excellent audience recording, featuring a solid (though unremarkable) mix of
songs from “Human Conflict No. 5”, “Secrets of the I-Ching”, and the as-yet-unreleased
“The Wishing Chair”. The audience is quiet and very little applause or chatter intrudes
upon the music.

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!
