1978.12.03 Toronto - upgrade

MERCI BEAUCOUP SIR

Thanks for sharing this second part :)

Thank you very much!

Thanks Again Bob, for doing your thing with this recording!!!

Any time man !  Here's hoping a couple others from your collection turn out to be upgrades.

A slight oversight - here is a replacement for '39, with a slight cut/repeat removed.  Can't believe I missed this one earlier.

Bump.... ;)

bump....

Thank you very much!

Thank you Bob,

This is my favorite concert:D

I have cassettes of the Birmingham NEC concert on 1 Sept 1984, The Works tour. I was actually present at this concert but I didn't record it. My brother bought tapes mail order, and I copied them onto a pair of BASF Cromdioxid II C60s. I can't give the provenance or anything, my brother no longer has the tapes he bought. All I can say is that my copies were taken when my brother's tapes were new, mine have barely been played, and they've been stored inside in decent conditions over the years. I couldn't even say what gear I used to make my copies.

Are these of any interest or are there already copies of this concert with good provenance? I don't have the gear nor the interest to digitise these myself but I might be willing to post them to someone after a last listen.

Also, there were two Birmingham NEC concerts on The Works tour and although the tapes say 1st Sept that may have been my brother assuming it was the concert we attended. I vaguely recall the advert just saying Birmingham NEC.

Hi Owen,
               IF Bob thinks they are worth checking, you can post them to me, I live in the UK.
I'm currently transferring a lot of tapes for Bob to check, and he will attest to the fact that I'm okay to send them to!
Ironically, the 2nd night of Birmingham is one of those concerts I'm transferring, but I don't have the first night on cassette!

I don't know who Bob is, the name doesn't match the thread starter. I've not been on Queenzone long so I don't know anyone. I loved the FLAC downloads of the BBC Sessions especially Session 6, I've had that on cassette for years and the FLAC of that awesome session really brings it to life. Frankly that download is better than anything I've paid for in the last decade.

As I say I'm not sure whether these tapes are the first or second Birmingham NEC concert, though comparison with the ones you already have should decide that. All I know for sure is that I was present on 1st Sept because I still have the ticket. I don't even know if that was the first or second night!

Anyway, reply here again if you want the tapes based on what Bob says, whoever this Bob is. I hope he's not upset at me not having heard of him, or even her just in case. (I knew a girl who went by the name of Bob at University due to her real name being Kate - Blackadder has a lot to answer for).

Owen, I am the person in question, and I'm not the least bit offended that you do not possess extra-sensory perception.

Your tapes sound like they're worth checking out ! So perhaps you could coordinate with Brian's Wig and send him the tapes. Whichever show it is, it sounds like it's worth investigating. Thanks for the help.

Check your PM's Owen :)
