Many thanks to them for sharing & to Rob for pointing me there.
Needed very little restoration & just some light touches with the remastering.
Only negative is that it is lossy.
Still an excellent recording, I like this a lot!
Hope you do as well.
Dream remastered @ Reflecting Sound Studios, Southampton, England, 2019.

Original Notes:-
This is another ace soundboard (or exceptionally good audience recording) from Columbus, Ohio,
around the time of the ‘Perfume River’ recording.
Don’t panic completeists, there are a number of differences in the setlists, so calm yourself down…
As per ‘Perfume River’ they’re joined on the encores by Sid Griffin who (along with REMs Peter Buck) would jump onstage with anyone in earshot during the mid-eighties.
You’d be right in assuming he’s not the shy retiring type…
Performances are great – this is the five piece version of the band with John Thoman on Guitar…
by far my favourite lineup of the band, for what it’s worth.
Now about the date…Matt Piucci announces that the gig was on the 20th anniversary of Sam Cookes murder,
which would make it December 11th,
but all the references I’ve found state this was November 11th.
‘Perfume River’ was recorded on November 14th (in Rochester).
Unless you were there (and if you were, you’re a jammy bugger) we’ll never know.
And what difference does it make really…this is great music whenever it was recorded!
Good stuff here! I didn't recall this show sounding so good (then I realized it wasn't, and that YOU made it sound this good!). Many thanks, C.
ReplyDeleteNo problem Rob, you are very welcome, glad you are enjoying it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for all your shares here & on your blog, much appreciated.
Best wishes,

I was there. My calendar says Nov. 11th, '84, with the Long Ryders. I recall the Long Ryders standing on chairs playing at one point. I thought maybe they were trying to find warmer air, as it was cold in the room. Also, one of the RP (Matt?) referring to John Thoman as his guitar teacher. Thanks for posting this!
