comment J.V.Tol:

This is the first CD from this TV show with the best sounding versions.

The sound is excellent and there are some really wonderful songs here like When it comes to you, Water of love, Your own sweet way, etc.

All songs are taken from the best sounding bootleg, “Bijou”, but Water of love is taken from “A friendly funny night” as it was not included in “Bijou”.

All songs have been remastered (for example speed correction)

Three songs have been added; “One woman man”, “Railroad worksong” and “Dallas rag” which were only broadcasted on TV and never bootlegged!!!

plus the interview before the show.

Great one to have in the collection!

Comments Pyroman:

Very nice Notting Hillbillies concert.

Perfect sound – better than other bootleg from the same day “Live in London” – and great setlist.

When It Comes To You was already played here, before the release of “On Every Street” .

A fantastic “I Think I Love You Too Much” was performed even before the famous ‘Knebworth Festival”, where this never officially recorded song was played for the first time by Dire Straits, together with Eric Clapton.

Water Of Love is also very nice in NHB version.

Great bootleg!

Enlight note:

Also known and labeled as: The Notting Hillbillies – Having A Good Time – SNAPE 1990 (but notice the improvement and extra tracks on this real deal
, there are some mix ups)

Very good sound and great performance.

Dire Straits played “i think i love you too much”, for the first time at the Knebworth Festival and later during the beginning of the OES-tour,
Great to have this stunning version before it was played by the Straits.
Jeff Heally recorded this song with Mark, and released it on his album “Hell To Pay”( it became a great recording), unfortunally On March 2, 2008, Jeff Healey died of cancer(age 41).

I love the rollin’ sound of the banjo during ”when it comes to you” played by brandan.

Nice “Water of love” intro.

Another great version of “Hobo’s Lullaby” with some breath-taking short guitar licks by Mark during the verse and chorus , and a great outro solo.
(this also gives me the opportunity to rectify my info on the NHB-GLASGOW 90 upload **) that ,”Hobo’s Lullaby” was the only soundboard version , i was mistaken, here another wonderful soundboard version)

The guitar solo on Feel Like Going Home is amazing!!!

simply, a must have (imho).

**)see here for another excellent HNB soundboard show: “Glasgow 1990-04-25”

Notes
Nitzer Ebb was the support act.

While we’re hanging out in the 80’s I thought I’d share another show from one of the decade’s biggest bands. Violator was huge when I was in high school yet there was still some kind of alternative-ness to them (and that was even before alternative was cool.) I don’t know how to explain that actually. I look at it now and the album sold millions of copies, was all over MTV and yet there was this hipness to them, at least where I lived. Maybe that was because a few of the popular kids at my school dug them before they had become huge and so when they did become huge it still felt like it was a secret. Or something.

This is another weird type show in that I have never before seen a bootleg from these guys. Honestly I can’t swear to the awesomeness of the show. Not only have I not given it a big listen, 80s synth bands don’t tend to translate that well to concert recordings. As my wife says “I’d rather hear the studio versions, they sound cleaner.”

If you love the 80s and you cant’ hear “Personal Jesus” enough, this shows for you.

Lineage:
SBD > master cassette > CDR > EAC > WAV > Editing (below) > FLAC Frontend > FLAC

Editing notes:
* Re-tracked show (combined WAV files in Nero, then re-split with CD Wave)

Note #1: I decided to create a separate track for the encore break–which is really just crowd applause–since it lasts roughly two minutes; tracking it this way allows you the option of skipping over the “applause” track when you listen to the show…and thereby saving two minutes of listening time.

Note #2: The volume on both CDs is just below 90dB; I did not make any adjustment to the volume, although some of you who prefer louder recordings may want to increase the volume 1-2 dB with your favorite wave editor if you feel the volume should be slightly louder.

TheCommish notes:
On previous “RS Archives” torrents, several of you requested a Tears For Fears show from the archive. Well, you’re going to LOVE this awesome-sounding show!

A caveat, however: Since I am not a Tears For Fears fan, I had to research almost all of the song titles below. I think I got everything correct, but please forgive me if any of the titles are incorrect.

Also, this show came to me as “Unknown venue” and with an April 1990 date. After doing some research, I found that this Cleveland show was held at Public Hall on Feb. 12, 1990.

Somewhere in the mid-to-late 90’s, that is to say in the early days of the Internet, or rather, the early days of widespread Internet, a friend of mine sent me an e-mail an in the subject line she had written “Woman in Chains.” That will likely seem strange until I tell you that in all the e-mails we sent each other we included in the subject line a song title, or lyric. The receiver then tried to guess which song it came from. I hadn’t the slightest idea where that one came from, which is to say I am not the world’s biggest Tears for Fears fan. It surprised me that I didn’t know it, because I actually did have a couple of their disks, and my roommate enjoyed listening to them. I was surprised even more when I found out I had that very song on a CD. Which is to say that I liked their big hit songs, but not much else.

The question then becomes why do I have one of their concerts if I am not really a fan. The answer lies in my love of finding oddball, or obscure shows. Concerts from folks like the Grateful Dead, Bruce Springsteen or Ryan Adams are easy to come by. They allow taping, they understand the benefits behind letting people trade their shows. For others this isn’t the case and thus there are not very many of their concerts available in trading circles. I’ve never once seen a Tears for Fears show out there, and thus I find it interesting.
