Remaster Notes:-
Really nice recording, much appreciation to Egg Crisis & Dark Circle Room.
This ran to slow so I adjusted it as need track by track.
A few talkers & coughs between tracks,
one excited chap calling for Jolene between every song.
During the music it is okay.
Responded well to some restoration & remastering.
Decided to retrack it.
I removed the encore breaks, ran much better without them.
This one is for Scott & all his help with the blog, cheers!
Hope you enjoy it,
Dream Remastered @ Reflecting Sound Studios, Southampton, England, 2018.

Lineage:-
Cassette Aud, Master, first part TDK SA100 Encores, TDK SF90,
Recorded on Sony Recording Walkman with T-shaped external mic[Eurochannels EMC3630]) >

Notes:-
I don't do the CD1 / CD2 thing.
If you're burning it on 2cd's just use your common sense. (Hint: Put the encores on CD2). :)
Recorded from the balcony at the back, in the centre.
Tape flip(auto-reverse) during This Corrosion, less than a second missed,
the missing "hey now now" replaced with another "hey now now" from a moment earlier to patch up the missing piece.
The first of the two 10th Anniversary gigs.
Before Lucretia, "Thanks for coming."
Before Amphetamine Logic, "Now there's a funny thing".
Before Burn, drum machine failure,
"I hope you all found somewhere to stay tonight... (audience sings 'Let's all laugh at Eldritch') ... Oh no."
Before Gimme Shelter, "I remember when this stage was big".
As Flood II starts, "Is my nose still bleeding?".
Before Vision Thing, "And while we're on the subject..."
Includes the "3rd encore",
where after more audience cheering Eldritch came back onstage and everyone expected to get another encore,
but he just said "thankyou" then left.
I copied the tape for a few people back in the day, but don't know if it's currently circulating.
I downloaded a bootleg called "Return to Arkham" for comparison and quality-wise it's about the same.
Although of the 2 songs I checked, both had had the between song parts tampered with,
one song had one of Eldritch's remarks removed ("now here's a funny thing"),
and another had a "thankyou" added where there hadn't been one (right before the drum machine failure).
I didn't check any more after that and binned it.

From sisterswiki.org:
10th Anniversary - Free gig for the Reptile House Members ...
and also the first of two pre-tour concerts in Leeds for The Sisters 45-gig Tour Thing II-travels in 1991,
the second concert took place the day after at Leeds Polytechnic.
A Live Bootleg of this concert does exist and is circulating among the fanbase.
Furthermore, a live bootleg LP was released under the title The Return To Arkham ...
thanks for this colin...decent sounding bootz from their early post-split period are quite hard to come by...I can't believe there have been none recorded through the soundboard [compared to what's available during the 80's]...or have I missed them

...keep up the good work
Hi Scott,
ReplyDeleteI am not the most knowledgeable wise on sisters material.
Generally only like the early material.
So can't really say about the lack of soundboards about.
If some one knows please answer this question, thanks.
Glad you like the remaster & cheers for leaving a comment.
