A CDR copy of a 2nd gen cassette of an FM broadcast, received in a snail made trade about 10 years ago.
Sound is quite good although there is a fair bit of tape hiss.  Tracks start and end quite abruptly due
to advertisements / DJ Chatter being edited out (not by me).  Nonetheless, an interesting document of
Weather Report live quite early on in the "Tale Spinnin'" tour.

Enjoy!

LDB Special Series #276

Out of my 7,000+ shows and radio broadcasts, I have many concerts that were special for some reasons: the setlist, the
musicians, the venue or unexpected events. These are the ones I'd like to propose you. Most of these come from my
cassettes collection, so they will be released at a slower pace than my Master Series! But you won't be disappointed!
I will try to gather the most unusual things I have in my collection and, as always, your feedback and comments will be my
reward for all the work involved in this project.

DO NOT share this music on mp3, just convert it for your own use. Sharing mp3's is the right way to make me stop sharing
music here.

By now you should know I love the 1975 tour! This one sounds very good and pretty close to the source (must have been taped
in a small club) but it is definetely an audience recording, not a soundboard. The band is on fire here, with a pretty standard
setlist for the tour except for the seldom-played "Between The Thighs" from Tale Spinnin'. This is clearly a must-have show
for any WR fan. The good thing with the band is that one show is never the same, with lots of improvising and different
versions if compared to the studio albums.

enjoy!

LDB Special Series #272

Out of my 7,000+ shows and radio broadcasts, I have many concerts that were special for some reasons: the setlist, the
musicians, the venue or unexpected events. These are the ones I'd like to propose you. Most of these come from my
cassettes collection, so they will be released at a slower pace than my Master Series! But you won't be disappointed!
I will try to gather the most unusual things I have in my collection and, as always, your feedback and comments will be my
reward for all the work involved in this project.

DO NOT share this music on mp3, just convert it for your own use. Sharing mp3's is the right way to make me stop sharing
music here.

This is probably my favourite WR line-up ever. I am not the one who's a die-hard fan of the Jaco period: for me Alphonso
and Chester were THE rhythm section for WR. Freezing fire is amazing as well as the final bWW. They were so tight, powerful
but yet such a strong musical unit. This is their show at the annual Berliner Jazztage 1975 and - you would not believe it -
their first time in that festival. The band at their top. Soundwise this is quite good although not pristine: my guess is
that comes from german radio but no DJ is annoying the music. It looks like this is sourced from a vinly boot, but I am not
sure and I can't remember if there's any from that show. I had to change the track order a bit to reconstruct the common
setlist from 1975: on my cd they were clearly not in the right order...

Enjoy!

Weather Report - Copenhagen 1975-11-19, SB (reseed with fixes)

Here's a great performance from Weather Report recorded in late 1975. I recently posted a George Duke with Alphonso Johnson & Chester Thompson show, and in this Weather Report set these guys continue to burn! The venue is unknown, and the recording is either Soundboard or maybe FM and sounds oversaturated but still, well worth the listen. All Praise go to the original recordist and seeder (please step forward) !  Your comments are appreciated.

May 2010 fixes:
Track-1 intro may have been cut on the original recording (listen to sample).  Starting at 6:16 on Track-5 there was tape damage and faded into dead silence, I removed 0:29 seconds meshing at a better mix point. Also Removed several pops throughout.
