a pretty good audience recording of a remarkable show,  this recording really captures the atmosphere of the early national shows, where the crowd reaction built throughout the night and by the end of the show was off the charts .  the indigo girls debut of "1 2 3" and a terrific version of "all along the watchtower". in places you can hear the people around the recorder talking.

1990-10-21-22: the paramount theater - denver, colorado (master edition) 

(acoustic duo show) 

disc one (26:05)

02. melissa (6:31)
03. watershed (4:57)
04. daddy's all gone (3:56)
05. cowgirl in the sand (3:03) 

a combination of two soundboard recordings , "all along the watchtower" is probably from the 10/21/1990 show, and the other tracks are from a private recording session that probably took place before the 10/21/1990 show. there is a little hiss but otherwise the sound quality on this one is really, really great.  an essential recording.

"master edition" - virtually all the 1998 and earlier shows came to me on cassette, most of the 1999 and after shows came to me via cd. i wanted a way to show these are the best that can be had from my collection - the shows i received on cassette are each being converted to cd and sound as close to the originals as they can, and the shows i received on cd have been checked and fixed if need be so they are dao (disk at once - no two second gaps of silence between tracks), sector boundary error free (when a wav file is not the right length to fill a cd sector - a micro gap or pop can be the result), and have good sound levels. i don't have any info on the lineage of any of these recordings.

enjoy   :   )
