OTHER THINGS YOU CAN TRADE WITH

ATTENTION TAPERS:
Do you record shows yourself when you attend them?
I myself have not done so, but if you do, you may find the following web site useful....

It seems to have lots of technical information (way above my head!) about
microphones, and to be a source for buying high quality equipment.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys collecting music bootlegs or has any interest in learning more about them! This is an extremely detailed and comprehensive "inside view" of the methods, actions, and thought processes of the people behind most of the bootlegs made for the first several years of this phenomenon's history. I couldn't put it down.

"Stardust Club" (Also circulated under the assanine title "Who Needs Robin?") 1 disc (12 tracks, Audience recording, 43 min.) Stardust Club, Rockford, IL 1974 - Earliest known Cheap Trick recording, from shortly after they changed their name from Sick Man of Europe to Cheap Trick! Xeno is on lead vocals. This is absolutely a must-have for any die-hard Cheap Trick fan! - I expected the sound quality to be horrible on this one, but it's actually pretty good. - Track list - Cover art available upon request

"The Total Xeno" 1 disc (Soundboard, Approx 80 min.) Madison, WI And Rockford, IL 1974 w/ original singer Xeno - Includes some interesting tracks like "Dancing In The Streets" and "Get Back". And the first song is an early track that contained elements of what would later become "You're Taking Me Back" and "I'll Be With You Tonight" - Sound quality varies but is mostly just 'Fair' - No track list or cover art

"Mother's Day 1975" 1 disc (10 Tracks, Approx 45 min.) Cheap Trick playing a free Mother's Day concert at Anna Page Park in Rockford, IL 1975 - This is the earliest known live recording with Robin Zander on vocals!! - Lots of early versions of songs, including "I Want You to Want Me" of which Rick says "This next one is about a guy that's trying to make it with this beautiful girl, even though he's a real dope" - There are various minor glitches, a few skips, and some pops that might be digital (Then again all these might have been just because I was listening to it on a cheap cd player while jogging). All that aside, the sound quality is really very very good. I can't even tell for sure if it's an audience or a soundboard - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"Humpin Hanna's" 1 disc (13 tracks, Audience recording, 57 min.) Milwaukee, WI 1975 (Anyone know the exact date?) - Sound quality is FAIR at best. Instruments and vocals are all clear, but the sound level is somewhat low, tinny, and with some static. - Track list - No cover art

"Haymaker's" 1 disc (9 tracks, Audience recording) Haymaker's, Wheeling, IL 8-27-76 - The sound quality during the first track is so horrendous that I think it's perhaps the worst sound quality of any boot I've ever heard. The recorder sounds like it's too near the amps and all you hear is bass overriding and distorting. Fortunately after that first track the sound greatly improves, but it never rates higher than 'fair' on my scale - Track list - No cover art

"Bloomington '76" 2 discs (25 tracks, Audience recording, 110 min.) The Met, Bloomington, MN 1976 (Anyone know the exact date?) - Sound quality is between poor and fair - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"The Starwood '77" 1 disc (Audience recording) The Starwood, Hollywood, CA 3-17-77 - Sound quality is FAIR at best. Very muffled - Tracklist - Sorry, no artwork at this time

"The Perfect Female Body" 1 disc (7 tracks, Audience recording, Sourced from an LP) The Starlight Theatre, Los Angeles, CA 4-1-77 (Cheap Trick was opening for The Runaways) - Sound quality not yet rated - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"Whiskey-A-Go-Go '77; First Night" 1 disc (13 tracks, Soundboard, 60 min.) Whiskey-A-Go-Go, Los Angeles, CA 6-3-77 - Sound quality not yet rated - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"Rockford Armory '77; 1-Disc Version" 1 disc (17 tracks, Audience recording) Tracks 1-13: Rockford Armory, Rockford, IL 10-31-77. This is an incomplete version of the show, missing 6 songs, and all the talking between songs is removed - Also includes 4 tracks performed live acoustically on some FM radio show (It sounds like the announcer calls it the "Incana Cafe" perhaps) Sound quality of the Rockford Armory concert is rather poor. It's very muffled throughout most of it, although it's clear and audible. The acoustic radio show tracks sound excellent. - No track list or cover art

"Rockford Armory '77; 2-Disc Version"(Also called "Pick 'Em And Flick 'Em"...In reference to Rick's guitar picks ..not boogers!) 2 discs (28 tracks, Soundboard, from FM) Tracks 1-19: Rockford Armory, Rockford, IL 10-31-77 (This is apparently the complete show). Tracks 20-28 are from a 2003 Rockline show broadcast 7-23-03, but include only music, no talking - Sound quality is great, especially compared to the 1-disc version. But there's still a lot of 'overdrive' type of distortion. It definitely sounds to me like a soundboard recording - No track list or cover art

"Toronto '77" 1 disc (13 tracks, Soundboard from FM, 62 min.) El Mocambo, Toronto, Ontario, Canada 11-10-77 - Sound quality not yet rated - Track list available upon request - No cover art

FM) - Sound quality is of both shows is great - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"Paging Mr. Wood" 1 disc (14 songs, Audience recording, 64 min.) Newcastle, England 2-23-79 - Sound quality is merely 'Fair'. It might have gone through several generations on cassette or something. It's very clear, but the sound spectrum is mostly on the screechy high end. Plus there's a ton of tape hiss. - Cover art available upon request (The artwork might be for another version of the show that's floating around somewhere out there, because it calls it a soundboard recording.)

"Stockholm '79" 2 discs (17 tracks, Soundboard, 90 min.) Stockholm, Sweden 2-28-79 - Sound quality not yet rated - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"Paris '79" 1 disc (14 tracks, from FM) Paris Stadion, Paris, France 3-8-79 - Sound quality not yet rated - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"JOQR Seishun-O-Dori" and "NHK 600 Kochira Johoubu" 1 disc (From Japanese TV and FM radio) This is two things that were put onto a single CD because they are both rather short. First is "JOQR Seishun-O-Dori" radio show - Japan 3-16-79 Sort of a listening party amidst chaos. Rick plays live piano solo. Album tracks played. Then "NHK 600 Kochira Johoubu" Japan 3-19-79 Japanese TV show. Mix of interviews plus 3 live songs from 3-19-79 Budokan show. - Sound quality is very good - No cover art

"Chicago '79" (Also circulated under the name "Hello Windy City") 2 discs (18 tracks, Soundboard from FM) Live at the Chicago International Amphitheatre 6-16-79 - This is probably the best live Cheap Trick boot I have ever heard! The sound is SUPERB, the band's playing strays more from their original studio tracks than they normally do, and there's even a 4-minute Rick Neilson guitar solo .. something I've never heard, on CD or in concert, and I've seen them about 20 times! - Track list - Sorry, no cover art

"Top of the World; Chicago '79" 1 disc (15 tracks, Soundboard from FM) Live at the Chicago International Amphitheatre 6-16-79 - Same as the above, except someone trimmed 3 songs off so that they could fit it onto a single disc (The tracks which were cut are: "Big Eyes", "Look Out" and "Auf Wiedersen") - Same extraordinary sound quality! - Track list - Cover art available upon request

These were the last recordings done with Tom Petersson before his return in '88. - Sound quality Very Good on some tracks, Great on others - Track list - No cover art at this time

"Found All the Dreams" 2 discs (Soundboard) This was listed as "Found All the Parts Sessions", but that sounds misleading. This is not a studio session, it's a live show (Perhaps the same live show the tracks on the "Found All The Parts" album came from) Los Angeles, CA 1-5-80 - Sound quality is GREAT - Cover art available upon request

"Providence '80" 2 discs (21 tracks, Soundboard, from FM) Providence, RI 3-24-80 (Incorrectly listed as 2-24-80 on some lists) Originally broadcast as part of the "Super Groups In Concert" series - Sound quality is GREAT. I heard one skip. There may be more. - Track list available upon request - Cover art available upon request

"All Shook Up in London" (Also called "London Lovers") 1 disc (15 tracks, Soundboard, Approx 59 min.) Hammersmith Odeon, London, England 11-5-80 - Sound quality is very good, but some distortion at times. Nice balance of highs and lows, nice clear vocals. But it does have split-second TAO track transitions, which are sometimes abrupt and imperfect. - Cover art available upon request

"Go For The Throat" 2 discs (18 tracks, Audience recording) Reunion Arena, Dallas, TX 1-22-81 - From the "All Shook Up Tour" - Sound quality is very good, but sometimes seems a little muffled. Most of it seems to have good tones though, and the vocals are nice and clear throughout. But it does have split-second TAO track transitions, which are sometimes abrupt and imperfect (More so on Disc One. On Disc Two the transitions are almost all perfectly smooth) - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"Chicagofest '81" 1 disc (13 tracks, Soundboard, Approx 64 min.) Chicagofest, Navy Pier, Chicago, IL 8-5-81 - Sound quality not yet rated - Track list available upon request - No cover art

So many people have a different date listed for this show, I don't know what to believe!) - The sound quality is truly horrible. It must have gone through several generations on cassette before being converted to CD. That's my best guess. It's just go so much noisy, screechy, high-pitched distortion, I got a headache after listening to just a few minutes of it, even at low volume! Such a shame. If you have lower-generation copy of this show (or any of my other shows) that you think sounds better than I've described, please let me know. I'd love to obtain it. - No track list or cover art

"A Checkered Past" 2 discs (Soundboard?) Park West, Chicago, IL 10-13-82, Jackson, New Jersey 8-2-84, and Merriville, Indiana 1-22-95 - Sound quality is Very Good - Track list - No cover art

"San Francisco '84" 1 disc (19 tracks, Audience recording) Wolfgang's, San Francisco, CA 5-26-84 - Sound quality varies. Throughout more than half of the show the sound quality is indeed very good. Then it suddenly becomes horrible for about half a song. Then it becomes 'fair' and stays that way through the end of the CD. This show also has no proper track markings. It is broken up into 3 CD tracks. On the positive side, there are some songs that are not heard live very often, such as "Up The Creek", "I Want Be Man", "Everybody Must Get Stoned" and "My Baby Loves To Rock" - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"The Alternate Standing On The Edge" 1 disc (Soundboard) Standing On The Edge demos, alternate mixes, and tracks that apparently didn't make the final cut.

"Six Flags '85" 1 disc (14 tracks, Audience recording) Six Flags Amusement Park, Busch Gardens, Hollywood, CA 8-23-85 - Sound quality is good, but the editing is sloppy and there's lots of audible audience talking - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"The Doctor Demos" 1 disc - Includes several songs that did not make the final cut! - Poor to Fair sound quality. Probably several generations away from the original. If you have a lower generation copy of this one I'd love to get it from you! - No cover art at this time

"Valley Fair; Set One" (Also called "Unplugged") 1 disc (15 tracks, Audience recording) Valley Fair, Shakopee, MN 8-21-86 - Very Good sound quality for an audience recording, but a bit too much treble - Track list - Cover art available upon request

"First Avenue '87" 1 disc (17 tracks, Audience recording, 74 min.) First Avenue, Minneapolis, MN 3-2-87 - Sound quality is EXCELLENT for an audience recording! I was truly surprised that it was an audience recording! - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"Summerfest '87" 1 disc (17 tracks, Originally recorded from FM) Milwaukee, WI 7-1-87 - Much to my disappointment (on account of the fact that this my favorite era for Cheap Trick) the sound quality is very poor. It is tinny and distorted, but the worst thing is there's a pumping waviness throughout the whole CD. It must have been transferred from a very old and well-used cassette tape, which probably also went through several generations to begin with. If you want to complete your collection then maybe you want this, but if you're looking for something you'll enjoy listening to, pick something else! - Track list - No cover art

"Springfield '87" 1 disc (14 tracks, Audience recording) Springfield, MO 9-10-87 (Second set) - Sound quality is fair, but there's a great deal of high-level ear-piercing noise and distortion which makes it intolerable for me - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"Bachannal" 1 disc (16 tracks, Audience recording) San Diego, CA 12-28-87 - Sound quality is between 'very good' and 'great' - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"Tulsa Tricks" (Also called "Just Got Back") 1 disc (15 tracks, Soundboard, 73 min.) Tulsa, OK 5-26-88 - This disc is AWESOME!! Great performance! Lots of Trick songs you don't hear live too often! Very low audience noise. The sound quality is simply superb, except for a few spots where the volume fluctuates (I have no idea why it does this), but this is no big deal. Overall, this is one of my favorite live Cheap Trick boots! - Cover art available upon request

"Boston '89" 2 discs (16 tracks, Audience recording) Orpheum Theater, Boston, MA 2-2-89 (With guests Steven Tyler & Joe Perry of Aerosmith) Sound quality is between 'poor' and 'fair'. The signal is rather low, and there's a lot of tape hiss, and some distortion - No track list or cover art

Includes Q-n-A with callers, interview segments, a few album tracks, and a few in-studio live songs performed acoustically ("Wherever Would I Be", and a short piece of "Heaven Tonight": Robin forgets the words... Ooops!) - Sound quality is great, but the track markings are randomly and illogically placed, and have split-second gaps - No track list or cover art

"Chile '90" 1 disc (16 tracks) The first 8 tracks are from Chile, South America 1990 (date unknown).

"Del Mar '91" 1 disc (18 tracks) Del Mar Fairgrounds, Del Mar, CA 6-24-91 - The sound quality is GREAT! I think it's an audience recording (Because of a little clapping you hear between tracks), but if so, it's one of the better audience recordings I've heard. Unfortunately the last track has a digital glitch which causes a stutter for about 8 seconds straight (Basically, during the chant near the end of 'Surrender', you hear "We're all-all-all-all-all-all-all-all-all-all-all-all-right-right-right") If someone has a copy of this disc without this glitch, let me know - Track list available upon request - No cover art

"Bun E. Carlos Air Farce Demos '72-'76" 1 disc - Apparently inappropriately titled. First of all, this CD does not seem contain any 'demos', in the sense that we usually use the term. It seems to be just one long instrumental recording of some kind of "let's just goof-off" type of casual jam session. Second of all, the inclusion of the date range '72-'76 clearly implies that this is a collection of recordings made over those four years, when in fact it is obviously a single recording session, like I said. According to the book "Reputation Is A Fragile Thing", "Bun E. Carlos Air Farce" was the name of a short-lived pre-Cheap Trick band that Robin Zander and Bun E were in, sometime around October/November 1971. If this recording is from that band, then it must have been made in 1971. - Rough track list - Very Good sound quality - No cover art

"In Color - Albini Version" 1 disc (15 tracks, Studio) Unreleased and unfinished Albini Version 2002 - On the "Rockline 2003" show, someone called in and asked the band for the history behind this disc, and Bun E. Carlos gave the explanation. The "In Color" album was produced by Tom Werman, but the band always felt that Werman screwed up the album. "He made it safe for radio, but the album sounds like it was done in a cardboard box". So about 5 years ago they were in the studio hanging around with the producer Steve Albini, and had nothing to do for a few days, so they said "Yeah, that would be fun to redo that". So they started re-recording the songs. They have not finished it yet, haven't gotten all the harmonies or instruments on it yet, but someday they might finish it and piggyback release it as a bonus disc with something else. There was some extra room on the CD, so at the beginning I have put that sound clip of Bun E. giving that explanation. - Sound quality is excellent - Incomplete track list available upon request - No cover art
