some notes from Digital Brother Roger
“The 1980 tour, known as the ëChina 1984 Tourí out of derision was possibly one of the most avant-garde tours PG ever emabarked on. This both in terms of sound innovations and visuals with the band accoutred in garage repair men suits. The tour followed the release of PGís third album which is often credited as the first LP to use the now-famous “gated cymballess drum” sound developped by drummer Jerry Marotta.
This RDWM/DB production consists of a two source recording merged together and patching in some places where one of the recordings had holes. The first recording I obtained a copy on cassette from a friend in Geneva who knew the taper but I was never able to find out the name of the taper and what equipment he used. His recording was very clean and complete. It ended up being picked up by Highland Bootlegs under the name: ëPavillion of Memoriesí but it was missing ëHere Comes The Floodí.The second came to me by a taper nicknamed ëMentschí who used
the following gear: Uher 4200 Portable Reel-To-Reel Recorder & Senheisser MD421 Mics. Unfortunately our good friend ëMentschí became very paranoid about security after having smoked a fat joint and the recording suffers from frequent cuts and him moving around from his original location in the hall. The combination of
both sources makes this archive one of the finest sounding audience captures of this remarkable 80 tour.
Thanks to RDWM for his long hours of patience on patching the loose ends. Enjoy! DB”
