I have a partial concert, but the quality is not so good (B-) and it might be lossy. However it is a truly historic concert. You might recall that John and Roger were interviewed just before the concert, but unfortunately the interview was never translated.
Pyongyang, South Korea - February 29, 1983
This might be an official release, but I will delete the link tomorrow if requested.

Nobody's falling for that.
What gave it away?
Leap year, 1983, or Pyongyang being in North Korea rather than South Korea? :)

Thanks Bob, can you please provide flac samples for these?
I have updated post #1 with one of your pledges for now as I'm unclear if you are submitting multi share entries or a single entry.
A flac sample link for Paris '84 is now available in post #1
Of course I'll do all three !
Samples are attached.
Can you add your alt source of London 1980.12.10 ? It's a very nice upgrade. That'd bring us up to 5 of the 6 tapes.
Many of those tapes contain better versions of poorly transferred sources longtime circulating and considered definitive.
Sadly the demand is for "new" not for "best", the collector win over the listener.

I would like to bring an alternate source from the Vienna 12-05-82 show to the "Bonanza". It's 89 minutes long, missing the encores. While the quality is not as good as the circulating one it is still a very solid B+ with a lively feel to it.
I listened to it (it had been years since I heard this show) and really enjoyed hearing this show again :-)

It's a nice offer but I think bit's of this were used in the merge and other than that it doesn't really offer much extra to the listener, like you say we already have a better version of this one.
Imo, every source is a unique take on the concert.
The criteria should be objective, not subjective.
As far as I'm concerned, I think that even alternate sources which might sound worse are to be included. At least, to know it exists even if not much people will be interested.
