A MUSIC LOVER'S GOLDMINE OF LIVE, UNOFFICIAL, UNRELEASED,
OR OTHERWISE RARE MUSIC RECORDINGS

DON'T HAVE ANY BOOTLEGS TO TRADE? BUY ME A NEW DVD,
A PS2 GAME, OR SOMETHING ELSE FROM THIS LIST OF
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....
http://www.sonicstudios.com/pa_x.htm
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.

"East Side" 2 discs (Audience recording) Werner Selenbinder, East Berlin, Germany 3-7-88 (Concert For The Masses Tour) Sound quality is 'fair' at best. Pretty noisy, scratchy, tinny, and hissy. Plus it has split-second TAO gaps between tracks - Cover art available upon request

"Sweetest Silence" 2 discs (Audience recording) Nagoya, Japan 9-9-90 - The sound quality is really very good, but there are a number of little 'snap, crackle, pop' noises, particularly at the start of each disc. I don't know what these are. Pssibly digital imperfections of some sort. They are not very loud, and don't deter from my enjoyment. Despite those little noises, this might be the best sounding 1990 show in my collection. "Une Nuit a la Mode" is a close second - Cover art available upon request

This disc is incorrectly labeled as a 'soundboard recording' on some lists, but it is actually an audience recording. It's just a truly GREAT audience recording. One of the best I've heard.

MPEG CD: "MTV Presents Depeche Mode" 1 disc (MPEG CD) This is not a 'VCD' (It will not play on a VCD or DVD player).

I watched it at almost full screen size, with headphones on, and was TOTALLY blown away by the high quality of the video and the sound! This is AWESOME! It is professional live concert footage of Depeche Mode in Koln, Germany in 1998, broadcast on MTV. Featuring these songs: Intro, A Question of Time, Enjoy the Silence, Home, I Feel You, It's No Good, Never Let Me Down Again, Only When I Lose Myself, and Personal Jesus. It also has a bonus video: In Your Room, from their appearance on The David Letterman Show. Each song is its own file and must be clicked individually to watch.
