David Bowie 1983-07-27 Madison Square Gardens, NYC (Low Gen)(DAVROS378)(source 3 ?)



 


 

 Hi to all


Welcome to my series of mostly uncirculated masters & very low generation shows that i recorded or
received in trades in my younger days most of my masters have not been circulated or only traded
once or twice i used to trade a lot in the 70s - 80s & i have many many shows well in excess of 7,500
tapes.
Of these shows about 120 - 150 are  my masters they where always on my trading list but not many
got traded so i boxed them all up in the late 80s now i have decided to go through them  & upload
some of them.
I recorded many bands from Genesis – Bowie – Springsteen  - Hawkwind  - Hackett – Gabriel –
Marillion plus many many others i will try & upload a least one  show a week if not two.
To record theses shows i used a Sony portable hand held tape recorder with built in stereo mics.  
I always used good quality tapes to record on mainly T.D.K.  
I used to insert the tape deck in a empty coffee flask with the inside taken out of the flask to get past
the security ah those where the days.
The only thing i ask is please don’t sell these recording & don’t convert to mp3 etc & if you do
( only for your own use ).  Please don’t change any of the files or info files etc this is so that people
can tell the difference between this source & other sources as many people like to compare different
versions of shows.
Also please do not remaster these shows the reason for this is these days there are far to many
remasters of shows. Its ok have one remaster etc, but some are remastered that many times by
different people there can be at least 10 different remasters of a show from the same source & it can
get a bit tedious.
PLEASE ALSO DO NOT UPLOAD TO OTHER TORRENT SITES I WILL BE UPLOADING
THEM TO MOST MUSIC SITES WHEN I CAN GET ROUND TO IT THE REASON FOR THIS
IS I HAVE NOTICED IN THE PAST SOME HAVE BEEN UPLOADED WITH FILES CHANGED ETC
DOING THIS CAUSES CONFUSION WITH THE TORRENT.
All show are RAW versions with little or no tampering with the sound

I have now up-dated my tape decks for transfering recordings from audio tapes to my PC. I am now
using the following decks
Either
Nakamichi 1000ZXL Gold Edition Or
Nakamichi Dragon

Both theses decks are considered to be the best Tape decks ever made both have auto tape Azimuth
Alinement which will be used on all transfers. Both Decks have been Up-dated and serviced by
trained Nakamichi specialists.
I have for the past 6 month been trying out and expermenting with theses decks and
they are well worth the money amazing sound ( And should be for the money they cost ).
All the tape transfers that are done through my Yamaha Reciever are done via the pure direct
button ( all the displays on the reciever and tape deck are switched off ). so there is then no
interferance via the electrical circuritry.

We got this in the mid 80s. It Is not the source that as been shared as "the Master Brian Schley" and it is not from the "Tony's Friend Stan" version.
It sounds like it is the version that was torrented on "bowiestation" or "MWP" as "The Hunky Geordie Tapes, Vol 27" by steve23yh.
We got this from a trader who said it was from a low generation tape, but i cant say for 100% sure.
Some have said that "I Can't Explain" was played before "Modern Love", but that was on the 2nd night in NY.
This is the 3rd and last night at the Gardens and a great show Bowie. Before "Space Oddity" Bowie says "I want to dedicate this to a little boy called Sean“.
The quality is G/VG (8/10).
He is what "davidbowieworld.net" says about the show-

“Ladies and gentlemen,on stage for the final triplet night this week at Madison Square Garden … “ the announcer cries in the sensationa1 was he has been doing throughout the tour.
The crowds are as enthusiastic as during the last two concerts and this tape matches the other two as well.

ROCK CONCERT: DAVID BOWIE AS PERFORMANCE ARTIST

THROUGHOUT his 15-year career as a rock performer, David Bowie has worked out new modes of presentation, won new converts, then challenged them,
his older fans and his own limits by confronting them with new work in a new mode.

Mr. Bowie doesn’t just make albums and do tours. In fact, he doesn’t tour much at all; his three sold-out performances at Madison Square Garden this week are his first
here in more than five years. But wherever his work confronts us – on a single, an album, a selfdirected video, a film or, ideally, when he is on stage fronting a rock band –
Mr. Bowie does his best to take us by surprise. He doesn’t just have a new sound or a new look, though he does always seem to have those. He also has new ideas, new slants on
the most effective ways to mix sound and image in live performance, and a new set of concepts to tie everything together.

Mr. Bowie’s ”Serious Moonlight” show consists of songs from many of his albums, but it is more properly a performance piece, a single, coherent, resourceful and at times
virtuosically imaginative mixed-media work. It deserves that designation as much as an extended piece by Robert Ashley or Laurie Anderson, and it is by turns subtler, more ferocious,
more moving and more dazzling – intellectually and sensually – than anything the art world’s most celebrated performance artists have come up with.

The tour began in Europe, and there were early reports of some musical roughness, as well as gossip about the last-minute replacement of the lead guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan
(who played on Mr. Bowie’s current hit album and single, ”Let’s Dance”) with an earlier Bowie band regular, Earl Slick. But by the time Mr. Bowie and his musicians
opened at Madison Square Garden last night, only a few musical kinks remained to be ironed out. The rhythm section of Carmine Rojas (bass) and Tony Thompson (drums),
hadn’t yet found a comfortable tempo and groove for some of Mr. Bowie’s earlier songs, and there were occasional timing problems with a few of the more intricate arrangements.
But these were very minor blemishes. As an evening of sound, light and image; as Mr. Bowie’s critical, conceptual gloss on his diverse body of work, and as visceral rockand-roll,
the show was practically flawless.

When a rock star has been around as long as Mr. Bowie, it’s easy to chose the easy options, to give an audience what one thinks it wants, to lavish just enough imagination and
care on a song or an album or a show to get by, please the fans, keep money in the bank.

But Mr. Bowie uses everything at his disposal – his knowledge of rock and rhythm-and-blues history; his training in body language through mime; his interest in the early
performance art of the Dadaists and Surrealists and in William Burroughs’s ideas about manipulating psychology through association-blocks of sound and image; his stage and
film acting experience; the observations of cultures and cultural styles made on his extensive travels and, one suspects, some reading in the literature of crowd psychology.

But all of this would be crassly Pavlovian if there weren’t some heart, some feeling in Mr. Bowie’s work. That’s the area he seems most concerned with at present,
and in musical terms this means hard work on the elusive subtleties of feel. In the past, Mr. Bowie’s big problem was a lingering impression of coldness in his work.
One sensed, or thought one sensed, a remote, disdainful, manipulative intelligence marshaling spectacular theatrical and musical epiphanies without ever feeling their effects.

And in this respect, the David Bowie of ”Serious Moonlight” is a new Bowie – relaxed, smiling, jaunty and more emphatically, physically involved in the music than ever before. In
”The Elephant Man,” Mr. Bowie impressed the drama critics by using his body to make apparent changes in his physical appearance. In his latest stage show, he is using that talent,
the impact of his most enduring songs, and the wealth of knowledge and experience he has acquired to make great popular art – and, more to the point, great rock-and-roll.

Hope you enjoy it.

If any one has a better quality version of this source or any other sourceof this show please upload or
let me know so that other can enjoy it to.


I do not claim this version is better or worse than any other version in circulation.

Many many thanks to the trader for sending me a copy & the person who recorded the show   
 
As Usual Please dont convert to mp3 ( only for your own use if you do ) Please Keep all the info files
md5 etc in the folder so that other collectors know which version this is etc and  most of all
DO NOT SELL.

PLEASE NOTE.

This series is from my own personal collection they are NOT SOURCED FROM ANY CDRs /
OTHER TORRENT SITES ETC.
They are from recordings that i traded for between 20 - 35 years ago on audio tape as stated above
they have all been boxed up for the past 20 or so years.
This is the first time any of them have been Digitally transfered and torrented. All i am doing to the
recordings in nero wave editor is inproving the volume ( if low),
also equallizing the left and right channel where needed. Removing hiss etc ( If i can ).
Recordings in this series that have a generation linage are the correct linage as to what i was told when
i was sent the recordings. Most of the traders i traded with where well known traders so i have no
reason to believe they are not the true Linage if i had any doubt to the linage at the time i did not
write it down on the tape so all the low generation recordings in this series have a well known and
correct linage.

Please do not remaster any of theses If you wish to do remastering of this source find yourself a
better quality version and remaster that.
This version is how i remembered hearing it all them years ago and how it sounded when it was
recorded the way it should be heard.

THIS IS FOR SOME PEOPLE WHO ALWAYS HAVE TO PUT THERE TWO PENITHWORTH IN
AND ARE NOT SATISFIED.
I PUT SAMPLES UP TO EVERY RECORDING I UPLOAD MOST PEOPLE 99% ARE SATISFIED
I PUT THE SAMPLES UP SO YOU CAN HEAR THEM BEFORE YOU DOWNLOAD THEM IF
YOU DONT LIKE WHAT YOU HEAR ITS SIMPLE YOU DONT HAVE TO DOWNLOAD IT.
I OR OTHER UPLOADERS ON THESE SITES DO NOT HAVE TO SPEND TIME AND EFFORT
RECORDING THESE SHOW ON A PC ETC TO UPLOAD THEM  BUT WE DO AND DO IT
GLADLY SO THAT OTHER TRADERS CAN HAVE THE SHOWS ETC AND ENJOY THEM.
I HAVE NEVER SAID THE SHOWS I PUT UP ARE PREFECT IN ANY WAY BUT I DO THEM
TO THE BEST OF MY ABILLITY IF YOU DONT LIKE IT DONT DOWNLOAD THEM.

THATS MY MOAN FOR THE DAY SORRY LOL  
 
Please also buy the bands offical stuff and support them etc.
Thanks to all the Artists for there great music and to all the traders for keeping live music alive.
