  • Soundboard 9.0, Soundboard 9.5, Audience 7.6  - In this collection you have two excellent board tapes and one mediocre audience tape that you probably will not listen to as much as the first two discs. That is not to say the tape was not worth inclusion, but more that it was included for the sake of context since you can hear the band progressing through the years with the material.

  • Audience 8.8 - Very exciting club shows recorded in a way that makes you wonder if the band themselves did not have it done. It is very clear, the only knock I give it is maybe the passage of time took away some of the brilliance, and/or it’s not a first gen tape…but it’s really good!

  • Soundboard 8.9 - Very nice board with emphasis on vocals, a little less on the rhythm section but not by much. Classic period with all their hits, but missing Candy-O which is still one of my faves.
  • Studio Quality 9.7 - Fascinating! Just hearing these songs before the sweeteners were added is incredible. I kind of like the raw takes better, well, almost.

  • Pro 9.4 - Obviously this is super clean, but I thought some bottom end was missing. Still, it smokes!
  • Sale!

    THE CARS – Memphis 1979 (1CD)

    Original price was: $16.49.Current price is: $14.00.
    Soundboard 9.1 - Technically super clean and tidy recording but it lacks that electric atmosphere you get when you allow some “room” and crowd noise in the mix. That is my personal preference, the actual recording quality is excellent with maybe a bit of FM radio compression that takes the edge off a little.
  • Audience 8.6 - Very clear, but has a slightly odd balance that eventually does resolve itself somewhat. It’s as if taper is trying to find the best spot, so I can’t fault them.
  • Sale!

    THE CARS – Toronto 1978 (1CD)

    Original price was: $16.49.Current price is: $14.00.
    Soundboard 9.8 - Hard to find any fault in this recording, and the mix is a matter of preference so I leave .02 open to interpretation on the rating. It actually may be a 10 it is that friggin’ amazing.
  • Audience 8.7 This is a good and clear recording that I really like because there’s plenty of headroom so you can turn it up and it sounds even better. Taper was using good gear apparently and I thank them! Charlie Daniels Band 1976-11-15 Dallas Convention Center, Dallas TX 1. -Tennessee Waltz (taped intro) 2. -Louisiana's Waitin' 3. -Roll Mississippi 4. -It's My Life 5. -Saddle Tramp 6. -Long Haired Country Boy 7. -Trudy 8. -Billy The Kid 9. -Cumberland Mountain Number 9 10. -Texas 11. -The South's Gonna Do It Again 12. -Orange Blossom Special
  • Soundboard 9.1 - A wild one for sure, the recording is able to capture the manic energy perfectly.

    THE CULT – Los Angeles 2019 (2CD)

    Original price was: $23.49.Current price is: $22.00.
    Audience 9.5 - When you listen to this, just keep in mind it is taped by someone in the audience…you won’t believe it. Great balance, superb low end, sweet middle band tone, lush and warm with the perfect amount of high end (no sizzle or annoying squeal or cymbal wash). Just terrific, and the band sounds great!
  • Sale!

    THE CULT – Toronto 2018 (1CD)

    Original price was: $16.49.Current price is: $15.00.
    Audience 9.3 - This recording effectively conveys the power and volume of the gig, with pretty much a direct blunt force to your brain. There’s not a helluva a lot of headroom in the recording meaning the levels are at peak (no clipping or distortion) so if you plan to crank it loud, just be prepared for a lot of neighborhood complaints.
  • Soundboard 9.2 - I like these intimate sounding gigs, with tight and punchy mixes. A great early set!
  • Audience 8.6 - With the shortage of recordings spanning 2016 to now, anything is welcome including this rather spacious sounding capture. Bigger on atmosphere than super focused instruments, the vocals ring loud and clear but guitar chimes behind most of it all. Still, rather good, and I will take that!
  • Sale!

    THE CURE – Austria 2019 (2CD)

    Original price was: $23.49.Current price is: $22.00.
    Soundboard 9.5 - I believe this originates from an ALD recording, so yeah, it’s real good.
  • Soundboard 9.5 - Solid all the way through. A band who’s sound and style is suited for larger venues and consequently they are usually always well mixed and balanced. Nice One!
  • Sale!

    THE CURE – Glastonbury 2019 (2CD)

    Original price was: $23.49.Current price is: $22.00.
    Soundboard 9.5 - A very good mix, if there’s any complain I can make it’s that I found the music slightly compressed in the mid frequencies but this is extreme nitpicking…just trying to find a blemish in an otherwise perfect recording I guess.
  • Soundboard 9.2 - Pleasant, airy, well balanced but it does lean toward thin sounding to me. Still, it’s not exactly a heavy band anyway, so that leaves the listener with much more stuff to hear in the high range, keys, percussion, etc. Sounds very decent.
  • Audience 8.7 - What you get here is a lot of large stadium ambiance, actual recording is pretty realistic from around the middle of the venue – not overpowering and good, clear, loud enough to get a sense of the event and of actually being there. It’s good – it’s not overwhelming – just good. Not a lot of 2016 tapes out there so I like having yet another one since the band played different songs at every venue.
  • Audience 9.2 - Startling realism, bright, clear, punchy, and well positioned with some peripheral audience atmosphere to really put you in the seat in front of the band. It does sound like the taper had great seats. Really nice this one.
  • Audience 9.1 - Taper had really good seats because you don’t get that cavernous sound you might expect at a venue like this. It’s a warm, articulated sound, makes for a satisfying listen.
  • Audience 8.6 - It’s easy to find board tapes from most of their tours so I can understand why one might take a pass on an audience tape but you do get a different perspective here, it’s a “bouncier” sound, a more kinetic feel to the happenings and you know, the Cure sometimes drones on a bit so I like having a recording that helps keep things moving.
  • Pro Soundboard 9.3 - Sourced from a pro shot video, the audio thankfully is not too compressed but also not super atmospheric either. It is, however, very clean and well mixed.
  • Audience 9.1 - Thrilling capture! Gives you excellent mid band punch, and really clear, direct to ears sonics
