The Band – Copenhagen, Denmark (05/27/71)

The Band
05/27/71
KB Hallen
Copenhagen Denmark

Received this copy perhaps in 2000 and was
labelled as being from a 1st generation reel (AUD:MR>RR>CD).
CD clone>EAC>FLAC on 02/27/15

I do not recall the specific information about the analog>digital transfer and from whom I got this from.

However, this is a sonic upgrade to previous versions I have had of this show. That includes the incomplete portion of this show that appears on the bootleg “Live In Copenhagen-Run For Cover 2001” and the one that would appear on trade lists prior to the year 2001.

My older copies included a cut segment of “The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down” and many more pauses between numbers where the tape was presumably stopped.

“The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down” is not cut on this version and many of those pauses are also not here. Unfortunately, ‘The Shape Im In’ is completely missing and the begining of “The Unfaithful Servant” is clipped from this copy though. I have included both uncut as filler at the end from an unknown generation audience source.

Note: CD 1, tracks 1-4 left off my first (February 2010) upload due to being completely garbled and unlistenable on the original recording; now reinserted after being painstakingly repaired by fellow ìWhonaticî and audio expert Jon Hamm from March to July (!) 2010; equally damaged ìMagic Busî on orig. upload and ìThe Relayî which had suffered from a few lesser dropouts now also repaired; further minor clicks and drop-outs in other tracks also fixed.

Thanks a great lot from my end and on behalf of all wholehearted Whonatix for your WHOerculean labour of love, mate!

Uploaded to Dime in July 2010 by DocDondy with thanks to the unknown Danish taper for sharing his gem.

NOT FOR SALE – Trade & sharing only. Yes, that means especially you, Shtyoda Fckords – and crooked likeminded!
And do not spread this show in lossy formats, either.

So, with John’s help and today’s technology, this is the first time in 38 years that this best sounding 1972 Who show gets into circulation in its entirety and has become continuously listenable.

Enjoy ñ and Who ahoy!
