Comment
this is the complete set from Magazine, one of just a few shows at
the Main Act during a far too short existence. (it lasted less time
than this band did!). I happen to have 3 shows from there that I saw,
all good ones. (Pere Ubu and Jack Bruce with Cobham are the others.)
Only one tape flip, it was between songs. Nothing missing here, the
recording came out clearly and without any flaws that I noticed. 1980
was one of my best years in terms of getting good audience recordings,
not entirely sure why that is, but the Realistic twinhead has done well
in many shows including this one. I know very little about this group,
but it was a fun show, the crowd and the band enjoyed it. I don't see
much from this band, maybe nobody likes them anymore, but I have seen
a couple from them here on the dime, so in case anyone else still likes
them, or hasn't heard them in concert and wants to, here you go. This
recording has not been circulated much, if at all. Magazine played Boston
in 1979, but this was their only New England area appearance on this tour.
I thought they were pretty good. They were the headliner, 2 other acts,
John Otway and Richard Strange opened this show. I recorded them too,
but have never listened to either. their music didn't do much for me
at the time, but I enjoyed this show both then and still now.
I liked to use the XLI (normal bias/eq setting) for shows when
brightness helps, and it helped here, the fidelity is not bad at all
here for a 1980 audience tape. The only quality variation is from people
passing in front of the mikes. I was going to do a CD extraction with this,
and even though the files weren't clipped, it didn't sound right to me
so I did a fresh transfer from the master cassette and now it sounds
better than ever before. I did some ICPVR (individual clap peak volume
reduction) for some loud claps but other than that and balancing the
levels out a little bit, this is an unaltered and unedited recording.
It's missing a couple of seconds of the recorded walkon intro music,
everything after that is here uninterrupted and no further editing is needed.
I don't know their songs well at all except their big 1979 hit
Definitive Gaze (last song before encore in this show) and they do a
version of Thank You (by Sly & F.S.). The crowd enjoyed it, the band
enjoyed it, now you can hear a magazine while you read another. they're
a pretty good live band.
