Yes 1980-10-24 De Montfort Hall Leicester, UK(Relayerman)

 


I'm still in the process of converting all my CDs to iPod and I ran across the CDs for this show which is one of my favorite Drama shows. I gave it a cursory listen and thought, "I can do better". I got out my tapes for this show and went to work. I had some new audio tools and I think I managed to get an even better version than what I seeded years ago. The tracking for this is pretty much track after track so there are no disc breaks, but if you decide to burn to disc I would start disc 2 with track 9.

I have included my original notes from the first info file and also the artwork from Remy's site. BTW, the times below are from the original seed so they are probably slightly different now.
------------------------
Here is another Drama Tour show by request. This is one of my favorite shows and I probably would have seeded this at some point regardless of the request. Yes, Trevor Horn's vocals are struggling, but this is a great recording (I give it an A-) and the performance is wonderful. Also, the recording captures the intimacy of the theatre setting in my opinion. I got this show in a tape trade back in the '80s and have just now finished converting and tweaking it for CD for my collection. I don't know the generation, but it is low. I did do speed correction as well as it was just a tad slow, probably un-noticeable by most.
