Remaster Notes:
MEGA thanks to Dr. Dave for sharing his tapes here with us, much appreciated.
A great job capturing this show, without it what would we have?!
This bootleg has done the rounds for ages under many names.
A version can be found here on the blog credited to John Kend,
there is a Greek vinyl version as well.
All came from Dave's recording.

This is miles better (IMO).
I will leave the other version on the blog for those that want to compare.
A sample from each if you want to see if you want this first.

Dr Dave reached out and offered his metal master recording. 
So here it is after transferring/restoring & remastering
It needed some restoration & the channels balancing.
Fixed various glitches (as above) & clicks.
Did some editing & finally some remastering.

There are still some things I could not fix:
Phasing & occasional whooshing effects.
Also some of the channels are not balanced as well as I would have liked.
Distorted vocals in many/various places.

For all that it is still a better version than what existed already.
Unless someone else recorded it better than the good doctor (which I very much doubt), 
or a soundboard surfaces this is likely to be the best version we will have.
This is a MUST for Sisters fans.
My artwork included if someone can do better then please do!
Enjoy....

Notes from http://www.thestoneroses.co.uk/bootlegs
Sound Quality: A
Gig recorded from mixing desk – a bit rough but professional.
Performance Quality: B
Still sounding slightly amateurish, but Squire is starting to improve.
Why should I get this bootleg?
It’s a great recording of a gig full of rarities; 
The different version of Where Angels Play, Sun Still Shines, Your Time Will Come (which are rare songs anyway, let alone live), 
and The Hardest Thing In The World, they’re all on here.

Many thanks to R.C. for sharing all his tapes with us, much appreciated.
Sounded quite muffled on the original (check the samples), 
have managed to make it a lot clearer.
Needed lots of restoration & some gentle remastering was all it could handle.
I did a lot of editing when I retracked the files, flows much better now.
A couple of tracks I faded out then in, worked better (I.M.O.). 
There are talkers on here, but not to bad overall, 
but this is probably for hardcore fans only & collectors.
If the original was 3/10 then this is 5/10.
Anyway....
Check the samples first then decide.
If you par take enjoy.
My stab at some artwork included.

This turned out well.
Needed some restoration, gentle touches of remastering & then a retrack.
After the first 4 songs the crowd are told to go back to there seats.
They then play 2 more numbers & they are told standing (in the aisles) will start a fire!
This will appeal to anyone who has an interest in this phase of the band.
There are talkers (mostly between songs) but not that bad.
Check the samples & then decided if you want it.

Remaster Notes:
MEGA THANKS go to Eric for the amazing artwork, makes this so much better.
Many thanks to all who shared along the way.
This was in a bit of a state when I got round to working on it.
It suffered from all manner of noise issues: 
Tape hiss/clicks/static bursts you name it was on here!
So...
This took ages to clean up, it is now the best it can be for my skill set .
No more clicks/static & the hiss is much more under control.
There is still some noise present, but much improved.
I couldn't do much with remastering just some gentle touches.
Track 9 fades out for the tape flip.
Track 10 fades in.
Track 18 I have faded as it just cut off.
If you like early sisters then this could be for you,
If you have the original this is well worth upgrading to.

Much thanks to taper & shares along the way.
Great quality with a few issues:
#1 - Tried to fix the dropouts mentioned in the original notes & failed!
#2 - Suffered from clipping which is fixed.
#3 - I have removed all the chat with fades, flows so much better.
The only music lost by the fades is the start of "Chelsea Girl" the beginning was talked over.
And "At The End Of The Universe" the ending was talked over.
Really turned out well with the remastering, glorious!
So a few minor issues but even with them this is most excellent!
If Ride are you thing then is for you.
Have some samples for you to check first.

Appreciate it.
This has had a fair amount of restoration.
Was then speed corrected (it ran to fast).
Finally some really light touches with the remastering.
Talkers not to bad only in between songs & quite moments.
There is still some tape hiss present (especially if you wear headphones).
Removed all that I could, listen via speakers it is fine.
Tracks 14 onwards suffer from tape stretch, all sounds a bit wobbly.
So....
If you can live with the hiss & the odd wobble this has much to recommend it.

Many thanks to Zizi for sharing this here with us.
HUGE thanks to Eric for the amazing artwork.
Arrived as one WAV file.
Spek reports lossy @ 192kbps so that is what is offered here.
Needed lots of restoration, had this (very) annoying "ting" noise going on.
Managed to sort it out but couldn't push it dynamically with much remastering.
So this is mainly a restoration effort.
Doesn't help matters being so lossy in source.
It sounds umhhh... okay for what it is, 
may be just for hardcore fans, more than the casual listener.
Some notes below I found on the web that I thought you might be interested in.

Wendy James:
Nick wrote Baby I Don’t Care about my best friend who he was rather taken with. 
I think it was his way of telling her that she didn’t have to love him in return 
because he loved her anyway. 
Verse two – “You can tell me all your stories but spare me the plays” – 
is a reference to her aspirations to be an actor. 
Some years later, she took her life: the song is particularly moving now.

Zeus B Held, producer:
I sent the rest of the band home so I could work on the vocals with Wendy alone. 
It was obvious that she was new to this, but you can hear her energy, 
soul and passion on the record.
The famous scream at the beginning was an accident. 
Luckily, I always turn the record button on 20 seconds before a track starts, 
and she just let out this huge scream just to loosen up her voice, 
like a boxer entering the ring. 
I remember the engineer and I looking at each other and going “That’s great!” 
We asked her to do a few more but her initial roar had something raw, 
so that’s the one we used. 
Pop songs don’t normally start with a scream. 
I don’t think Madonna did that.
