Thanks to Tom at Sugar Mountain

and GOTR

I was asked to put it up here, so there’s another one from my collection, which I got in a postal trade a couple of years ago.
I don’t have any information about the source, sorry. Here it is, as I got it. Besides encoding to flac, no changes on the recording was done by me.

This recording is a bit rough at the end, but as this is not widely circulated, I think it’s worth offering here.
Please notice, that in Rockin’ In The Free World, On Broadway and Tonight’s The Night there are several small distortions. Might be the result of some mic fixing problems, but I really don’t know.
Anyway, nothing serious, quite listenable though…and you have the chance to listen to Wrecking Ball, which wasn’t played very often.
This was a great show of a phantastic tour.

GOTR says about the venue “East End Markets”, Sugar Mountain mentions “Apollo Stadium”. Maybe someone can enlighten me, if it’s the same?

Your comments, on the quality, as well, are very welcome.
Now it’s your turn!

Enjoy! Please do not sell or encode to mp3. Never ever!!!
Share it with your friends.

*) cuts in, and 24 second dropout on right channel

notes:
– DAT from the Dutch Masters Archives
– “FK” tape
– Transfer: DAT played on Sony DTC-790 deck -> S/PDIF cable -> Terratec
Aureon 5.1 soundcard -> Adobe Audition -> WAV -> CDWave -> WAV -> FLAC
– Mastering done in Adobe Audition; pitch raised +0.45 semitone, converted
to 44.1kHz. Some bass was added with BBE Sonic Maximizer. Some loud
clicks and pops repaired.
– Tape flips are: before Too Far Gone, before Cocaine Eyes (set change),
and just before the band introductions.
– Known issues: There are a number of microphone problems on the original
tape, mostly minor dropouts and the start of each set. Unfortunately, a
few seconds are missing from the beginning of Too Far Gone, and during
the intro there is a 24 second dropout on the right channel as well
(sounds like a disconnected microphone cable).
– But don’t let these flaws fool you, this is an awesome show with a very
rare acoustic Ordinary People which lasts over 10 minutes! This is the
last known performance of the song.
– There’s also a rare Wrecking Ball, and a Boxcar on this show.

* – track 1 and 2 have severe recorder speed problems. It sounds like
Neil is singing underwater. All known copies have this same flaw.
The issue resolves itself near the end of Sugar Mountain and the rest of the
recording sounds fine.

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) >

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