Dire Straits 1985-08-05 Blossom Music Center, Cleveland, OH
Dire Straits -"Blossom and Relive Cleveland '85"- Cleveland, USA. 1985-08-05, Stunning soundboard !!2011 Speed corrected version!! (With samples)
venue: Blossom Music Center, Cleveland, USA 5th August 1985
(Blossom Music Center, located in Cuyahoga Falls Ohio, halfway between Cleveland and Akron, is the summer home of the Cleveland Orchestra as well as a scenic venue for all sorts of summer music concerts)
Source: Soundboard
sound quality: 9.5/10
Format: 2CD-R
Enlight note:
FINALLY...... here it is, the SPEED CORRECTED version from one of Dire Straits best and famous 1985 soundboard USA bootlegconcert.
Although there are some original silvers and other bootleg recordings from this show, none of them are running in the correct speed. They are all running too slow aprox. a semi tone (two half pitch steps). Except for the tracks “Brothers in Arms” and “ Solid Rock’’( from this date!!) these are running nearly a semi tone (two half pitch steps) too fast.
An excellent soundboard recording like this deserves better.
So I speed up the slow running tracks and speed down the fast running tracks.
For this I used two bootlegs , not counting the bonus tracks, (read further):
(1) mine original silver , Original Artist Recording, live and alive, dire straits live USA, imtrat: 920.013 cover, imt:900.069 cd1, imt:900.070 cd2, made in Germany, LC6711.
(2) Brothers in Cleveland
WHY two different bootlegs?
I used the imtrat original silver because imho it’s the best captured recording. The sound of this recording is clearer (you can hear the separate instruments and normal audience enthusiasm much better).
And it has that mysterious bass guitar riff during the “walk of life” breakdown part (read further).
But the imtrat silver has some minors. “Expresso love” was placed on CD 2 (not following the set list) and because of that the transition from “ Ride across the river” to “ Expresso love" became a difficulty.
Also the imtrat was less complete comparing to the Brothers in Cleveland none original bootleg. And imtrat decided to edit out the band introduction during “tunnel of love” , professionally done to be honest and this version is in. (with the sound quality in mind) , but as a bonus I included the full “ Tunnel of love” version, with the band introduction , as a bonus taken and also speed corrected from mine original The swinging pig TSP-CD-088-2 silver.
So it became a mix from these two bootlegs to provide you the best sounding quality and keep it complete . And less but not least ……..its sounds the way it should be with the tracks speed corrected ….finally.
Notice that “Brothers in Arms” and “ Solid Rock’’ are from this concert date , all other bootlegs from this date included these tracks from the Houston, Texas, USA, 17th August 1985 show. (Which is not allowed to up anyway because it’s a King Biscuit Flower Hour radio concert and owned by wolfgangsvault.com), or were left out.
OK what about that mysterious bass-guitar riff during “Walk of life”:
On the Original Artist Recording, live and alive, dire straits live USA, imtrat: 920.013 cover, imt:900.069 cd1, Germany, LC6711. Silver, you can clearly hear John Illsley playing a bass guitar riff during the “ Breakdown” part………it would not be that mysterious when I also can hear it on other bootlegs from that concert. And yes …they are identical….except for that bass riff. (Listen sample). A version without the bass riff is included as a bonus, ripped from mine swinging pig TSP-CD-088-2 silver and also speed corrected.

And it really matches my feelings after doing this speed correction......... I relived this show!!
So here it is… Dire Straits at the Blossom Music Center, Cleveland USA - August 5, 1985 All TRACKS SPEED CORRECTED at last!!(BY Enlight)
I love listening this great concert proper now……..Turn it up Cleveland!
Enjoy boys and girls

If somebody got some spare time to create covers for this speed corrected version.......I will highly appreciate it!!(THX in advance)
Take care

Fix notes:
13th April:
Tape flip between Stay and China Girl loses no music, but does lose the band intros.
The source tape cuts out during Heroes, so The Jean Genie and Modern Love are both missing.
Note that the sound on the first disc, from Stay onwards, does deteriorate (to 8/10).
14th April:
Right channel too quiet on first side of tape so volume boosted to balance.
Gaps between Life On Mars?/Blue Jean and Heroes/Pretty Pink Rose removed losing crowd noise only.

ORIGINAL INFO:
I had fun a few months ago compiling a Before the Flood companion set, so I decided to do the same for one of my favorite Dylan live albums, 1978’s At Budokan. Today’s the anniversary of the beginning of the second full leg of the 1978 mega-tour — the first of six consecutive shows at London’s Earls Court — so today’s a perfect day to share the compilation with you all.
The concept is the same as Before the Flood II: A version of every song played that year that was not included on the official live album. Because he played many more shows than the ’74 Band tour, there were many more songs. At Budokan, after all, was only pulled from the first few concerts of the 1978; there were over 100 more to come.
So what I’m calling Not At Budokan has two sections, each arranged roughly like a typical ’78 show. They open with an instrumental then go into a blues cover, just like most of the shows. They have an intermission where you’d flip discs in the CD-burning era, and end on one of the year’s big encore staples: “I’ll Be Your Baby Tonight” and “Changing of the Guards.” Speaking of “Changing,” they also include a whole lot more Street Legal songs, as At Budokan’s recording predated that album and only featured “Is Your Love in Vain.” He also plays original songs never aired elsewhere: “Am I Your Stepchild,” “Stop Now,” “Love You Too Much,” “Coming from the Heart” (the latter two co-writes with singer Helena Springs).
I adore At Budokan, but it only scratches the surface of a wild and wonderful year, full of sax and flute solos, wailing backing singers, surprising blues covers, and splashy big-band remakes of old hits. He even took requests. Some guy in Osaka yells out “One Too Many Mornings!” and Bob mutters, “We’ve never done it before, but we’ll try it.” Some guy in the front row in Philadelphia writes “It Takes a Train to Laugh” on a piece of paper, and they do that one too — another one-off. When he hit Oklahoma, he even busted into a song he’d recorded with the state’s native son Leon Russell, “Watching the River Flow.”
Bob’s chatty, too. Before “Tangled Up in Blue” in Richmond, Ohio: “This is a ballad I wrote a few years back about three people who were in love with each other all the time” (really leans into the all). Yucking it up during the “Tomorrow Is a Long Time” backing singer intros in Tokyo, Japan: “In the middle, my ex-wife Jo Ann Harris. On the left, my current girlfriend Helena Springs.” And this extended intro to “Señor” in Charlotte, North Carolina:
I was riding on a train one time from Durango, Mexico to San Diego. I fell asleep on the train and woke up in this town called Monterey. It was about past midnight. Not too much happening, but around that time…an old man was stepping up on the platform to get up on the train. And he came down the aisle and took a seat across the aisle from me. Meantime the train was still in the station. Anyway, I was watching this whole thing through the window which was turned into a long mirror. And finally I felt a strange vibration and I had to turn to look at this man. He wasn't wearing anything but a blanket. So I turned my head to look at him. Both his eyes were on fire, I could easily see that, and there was smoke coming out of his nostrils. I said, well, this is the man I had to talk to. So I turned back to look out the mirror again. I finally got up the courage to talk to him. And the train started moving and the conversation went something like this…
Because setlists were fairly static, in most cases I was able to pick a recording with excellent sound quality. For the one-offs, though, it’s hit and miss. I generally chose songs from actual concerts, except for the tunes only performed in rehearsals (like the stunning “You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go” — how did they shelve that??). The one song that sounds like absolute garbage is “Absolutely Sweet Marie,” rehearsed but not given its live debut for another ten years. Sadly, the only tape was made by someone standing outside the building and, not only that, right next to a construction crew. I made it a bonus track so it doesn’t interrupt the flow. Ditto a few late-‘77 rehearsals of songs that never appeared again; those don’t feature jackhammer noises at least, but Bob’s voice is pretty low.
With this plus At Budokan, you will have one version of every song performed in 1978. At Budokan was only the beginning of the story. This will help tell the rest.

Fix notes:
2nd April:
It's apparent that there was over-miking of the floor toms (present on both versions I tried) causing bass rumble frequently throughout.
Tape flip between Queen Bitch and Fashion during tape flip. Faded on tape, repaired as best as I could.
Fade out between Heroes and The Jean Genie which clips the start of the latter.
3rd April:
Significant disparity in volume between the two channels, with the right channel oversaturated. Used iZotope RX declipper tool to restore peaks on right channel for whole tape - successful
Joins between Panic and Detroit and Suffragette City, and Fame 90 and Heroes resulted in minor loss of music to start of latter song in each case. Join between Let's Dance and Stay lost crowd noise only.
Join betweeen Ashes To Ashes and John I'm Only Dancing loses David saying the name of JIOD!
Unpleasant blare at the start of Blue Jean which could not be fixed without being intrusive. The sound is a little rougher from Heroes onwards and that's on the tape.

Fix notes:
Only issue was on first song, where the sound was massively oversaturated - completely thrashed.
Issue was worse on left channel, so right channel copied over to make it mono. Ran track through iZotope RX declipper tool to restore peaks, and then matched volume on later part of song to keep it consistent.
It's now listenable, but a distance from perfect.

Recording detail subsequently added by Steveboy after original up:
"It's nice to see my recording of Newport Leisure Centre still doing the rounds, I
think this has been played about with as there is more bass in it, the original
which I uploaded here a few years ago was a bit tinny.
"For the record it was recorded with a Sony portable recorder [WM-D3] can't remember what mic's but they
were external, and was recorded in stereo. I couldn't get the record levels
correct with the pre-show music hence the change in levels on Amazing."

Dan Lampinski recorded over 100 concerts in the Providence/Boston area, mostly between 1974 and 1978. His earliest recordings were made with an internal microphone deck, and though they are somewhat lo-fi compared to his later work, some very great moments in rock history were captured for posterity. In late 1974 he bought a Sony TC-152SD tape recorder, a Sony ECM-99 stereo microphone, and began using Maxell cassettes. He was also fortunate enough to have a friend who provided excellent taping seats for many shows, resulting in high quality recordings. In 1977, he switched over to a Nakamichi 550 tape recorder, two Nakamichi CM-300 microphones, and continued using Maxell cassettes.
He recorded many of the major 70's bands: Yes, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Queen, Blue Oyster Cult, Frank Zappa, Jethro Tull, ELP, Kiss, Black Sabbath, The Who, Al Stewart, Alice Cooper, Jeff Beck, Bruce Springsteen, Supertramp, Jean-Luc Ponty, Moody Blues, Neil Young, The Faces, Rush, Rick Wakeman, Kansas, as well as several "under the radar" acts.
Since Dan never traded copies of his recordings, they are all essentially uncirculated. Some copies were made for friends, but these releases are the first time most of these recordings have ever seen the light of day, and are direct from his master cassettes. No EQ'ing has been done to any of the transfers. Feel free to EQ, matrix, patch, etc and re-post if you like, just give Dan credit for the original recording.
Dan was very meticulous about taking good care of his tapes and is very pleased that these recordings will now circulate among the trading community. Please honour his kindness and generosity by sharing these recordings freely.

Guns N' Roses 1987-10-31 The Horizon, Syracuse, NY
On Halloween Night of 1987, a group of virtual unknowns calling themselves 'Guns N' Roses', blew the roof of a club calling itself 'The Horizon'in Syracuse, New York. For your listening pleasure, one of the last headlining club shows before the Gunners went on to become 'support band to the stars', and later, the world's number one rock band...
Halloween on the Horizon is one of the 'rarest of the rare' Guns N'Roses silver bootlegs, and it didn't come cheaply, so crank this mother for me!!
I would like it to be known that some jerk off is selling CDR copies of this performance under the title of "Bad Boys, Great Noise" complete with a trashy photocopy cover on Ebay. Please don't buy this inferior release. You are getting the best version for free, from me!
Give a Hoot! Don't pollute Ebay with burned media!!!
REQ: Any TESLA recordings! Especially audio from the Psychotic Supper and Bust A Nut tours. I do have all of the Tesla shows shared on EZT/DIME over the last 10 months, so I don't need any re-seeds. However, I am interested in all Tesla shows that were on STG at one time. In particular, there was one Tesla gig from 07-07-92 which was seeded on STG, that I would like to obtain. Thanks!!
Long live the Legend of Guns N' Fuckin'Roses!!

Technical info
Comments from QueenLive.ca :
This is the last concert of the Sheer Heart Attack tour, and the performance
is incredible. The show can be seen as a culmination of early Queen, as the
band would move into their next epoch and mature in many ways with the
creation and success of A Night At The Opera.
The band play their guts out tonight, and perform nearly every song with
unique embellishments. They are clearly appreciative of the Japanese fans
throughout the show. All this, as well as some rare choices for songs, make
this a very special final night of the world tour. Many of the songs are long
and full of energy, even moreso than usual. Brian plays a daringly long and
creative guitar solo in Son And Daughter (including part of the traditional
Japanese folk song "Sakura", something which he'd often play in Japan over the
years), and they turn in an extra long version of Liar. But there really is no
point of highlighting individual things, as the entire concert is really
a highlight of their career to this point.
The band came on for the encore dressed in kimonos, somehow turning up the
excitement of the ecstatic audience a notch. The band finish up with a rare
performance of the B-side See What A Fool I've Been, bringing a hugely
successful first Japanese tour to a close.
One notable thing about these early Japanese shows is that Freddie is just
learning how to communinicate with larger audiences, but he's not having too
much success, since most the audience members don't speak English! It really
is amazing how bands like The Beatles, Deep Purple, Queen, and Cheap Trick
were so successful in a country where most of their fans couldn't understand
a word of their music - which goes to show how powerful music is and how it
can transcend cultural barriers.
The show was filmed, and three songs (Now I'm Here, Killer Queen, and In The
Lap Of The Gods...Revisited) were soon broadcast on TV, along with some press
conference footage and a few shots of the boys having a picnic with a few
locals. There is speculation as to whether or not the remaining footage of the
show still exists.
The concert footage was previously attributed to the April 19 show, as it was
labeled as such on The Magic Years documentary. But upon closer examination,
these three songs are definitely from May 1. Some of the footage of Now I'm
Here was broadcast again on Japanese TV in 2004 in a documentary on the band
called "The Jewels." On both documentaries, part of the audio of Now I'm Here
is actually from London '74, a choice made by the compilers of the former
probably because the screaming Japanese fans drowned out the music.
It is worth noting that since this is the final performance of the Sheer Heart
Attack tour, it is the last time In The Lap Of The Gods would be performed.
Tonight also marks the last time the full version of Great King Rat would be
heard live. It would be revived, albeit in much shorter form, in 1984.
Comment from Collector's Music Reviews :
Young Nobles Of Rock is the very first Queen release on the prolific and
enduring Tarantura label. This title contains a new tape source for Queen’s
May 1, 1975 show at the Budokan in Tokyo. Several older sources exist with
the first appearing on a rare Japanese vinyl titled Kimono My Place Live (Marc
TC-75122) released in 1976 and copied on Stunning Live In Tokyo on Rodan
Records. This tape source is very good but incomplete, covering only
forty-minutes of the two hour show and containing "Procession," "Now I’m Here,"
"Great King Rat," "Killer Queen," "Seven Seas Of Rhye," "Hangman (Shag Out),"
"In The Lap Of The Gods…Revisited," "See What A Fool I’ve Been," and "God Save
The Queen." Three songs from this source, "Jailhouse Rock," "See What A Fool
I’ve Been," and "God Save The Queen" was released on compact disc on Great
King Hangman in 2000 along with a fragment from Queen’s April 19 show at the
Budokan. A second complete audience recording was used for First Live Attack
(Private Masters PM-007/008). The sound quality of this is fair to good, very
distant with the screams of the girls in the audience frequently drowning out
the music. Private Masters packaged this in a slimline double jewel case with
a replica of the concert ticket. Wardour released Killing Me Softy
(Wardour-004) in 2004 and contains a better sounding mono recording. "Now I’m
Here" and "Ogre Battle" are incomplete and the source from First Live Attack
was used to complete the songs. The concert was also professionally
videotaped and three songs, "Now I’m Here," "Killer Queen," and "In The Lap Of
The Gods… Revisited" were broadcast on television. The new tape source found
on the Tarantura release is a virtually complete stereo audience recording
produced by "Song Brothers." He was very close to the stage and was able to
capture the dynamics of the performance in detail making this one of the very
best audience recordings for the early Queen.
This is the final live show on the Sheer Heart Attack and the end of their
first very successful visit to Japan. "Killer Queen" was number one on the
charts and the band played eight sold out shows throughout the country. The
tape begins when the lights go down and records the entire taped introduction
"Procession" which leads directly with their travelogue "Now I’m Here."
Freddie sounds a tad self-conscious afterwards as he speaks to the audience in
Japanese. "It looks like we’re gonna have some fun tonight." After the live
staple "Ogre Battle," the band play "Great King Rat," a real rarity. Except
for the BBC sessions, there are only a handful of early live references to
this song including the April 21st, 1974 New Orleans and the May 4th 1974
Waterbury, Connecticut tapes. It would be resurrected ten years for the Works
tour, but it is great to have such a great sounding recording. "White Queen
(As It Began)," a song described Innuendoes author Sylv as pure poetry,
emotion, and the beginning and end of "March Of The Black Queen" in the story
of Lily and the Phoenix, follows and features a lyrical guitar solo from May.
"We’re gonna do a number we haven’t done in a long long while. But as this is
our last show on the world tour, it’s very nice to end it in Tokyo, and we’ll
do it especially for you" is Freddie’s introduction to the still unreleased
song "Hangman." This again appears on a small number of early tapes but not
in this sound quality. A studio recording has been rumored to exists, but
have been constantly denied by the band and such a recording has never
surfaced. After "Doing All Right" the band play a medley of the songs mostly
from the last two albums. The "early medley" first appeared about this time
and is a feature of the set they would retain until their final tour.
Three songs from Sheer Heart Attack are included beginning with "In The Lap Of
The Gods." There are few live recordings of this song since it was dropped
after this show, never to return again. The studio recording relies upon the
treated, slowed down vocals which are absent from the stage version. "Killer
Queen" follows and despite being their biggest hit at the time isn’t played
complete, ending after the guitar solo with the final verse dropped. "The
March Of The Black Queen" is simply the final heavy section ("I rule with my
left hand / I rule with my right / I’m king of all darkness / I’m Queen of the
night") and is segued with an instrumental reduction of the fun track "Bring
Back That Leroy Brown."
The first disc ends with an extended version of "Son And Daughter." The early
showcase for May’s solo, he plays for ten minutes and includes a reference to
"Sakura Sakura" in the middle. "Keep Yourself Alive" contains a short drum
solo by Roger, who afterwards introduces Freddie Mercury as "Fredrick" before
"Seven Seas Of Rhye." "In The Lap Of The Gods…Revisited" is the last song of
the set. With its apocalyptic chorus and communal spirit, it remains one of
their most effective closers which would be dropped in the future only to
reappear on their last tour as part of the early medley. This is followed by
two minutes of audience applause as they wait for the encores. The mc speaks
in Japanese over the PA system, telling the crowd to put out the candles. The
first encore begins with "Big Spender" and includes Taylor’s Black Sabbath
inspired "Modern Times Rock And Roll" in an undifferentiated medley with the
oldies. None of the tunes lasts for more than a minute and a half and are
played with the same furious tempo, but it’s great fun to hear Freddie work
the crowd as the show reaches the two-hour mark. The final song of this long
show is a live performance of "See What A Fool I’ve Been," one of Queen’s rare
blues songs.
Comments from stark :
Firstly, this recording has been crushed by excessive compression (sometime
since the introduction of digital limiters, so an uncompressed master SHOULD
exist), and it's all but impossible to undo. However, by correcting the
equalisation I have minimised the effect and increased the peak-to-average
ratio (dynamic range) by about 4dB. As the original has a ratio of about
9dB (!!), this represents a significant difference. Please note that if you
are comparing this version with the original, it will sound quieter.
The bulk of the equalisation was done with Har-Bal. I then applied high- and
low-pass filters with a Waves Renaissance 2-band eq and brought it back up to
level (-0.2dB) with a Waves L3 limiter in Wavelab. I have re-tracked the
songs, corrected the balance between left and right channels and applied
new fades.
Comments from pittrek :
Stark's remaster was fantastic, but there were a couple of things which I
didn't like. First of all, stark doesn't use denoisers, which is usually a good
idea, since you can damage the sound completely if you don't know what you're
doing. However this recording had some small amount of hiss, which got pretty
annoying during the silent parts, that's why I've done a very careful hiss
reduction in Cool Edit Pro. There were 2 cuts in the original bootleg, so
I have filled the gaps with the Wardour bootleg and an unbootleged 5th source.
I have used a little cheat at the beginning and the end of the concert to make
it sound better. Since they used taped intro and outro, I have created for
both tracks a matrix between the audience recording and the album track.
