Central Rain This is a great R.E.M. performance from what is perhaps my favorite tour, in support of Life's Rich Pageant. The NW swing included Eugene, Portland, Seattle and Vancouver--I managed three of the four, while JP and AW did 'em all. The set lists varied wildly and this one had a cover version to beat all cover versions: "We Don't Need Another Hero," the Tina Turner song from the Mad Max 3: Beyond Thunderdome soundtrack. Why? Never found out, but it's a highlight here. Another gem for me was the debut of a song that wouldn't appear until Document: "The One I Love," which was awe inspiring to hear live for the first time. And the show closing covers followed by "So. Central Rain" are terrific. This was recorded, like so many of our Paramount tapes, from the very last row of the main floor, stage left up against the curtain onto which we mounted the microphone. It might be a little distant, but the mic never moves all show and the sound is very good indeed (sample below). There are a couple of edits where we stopped the deck and a bit of gentle remastering to add some punch. We used this skinny Sony stereo mic a lot in those days. Sounding good to me. A year early of the anniversary, but why wait? Butterking (for JEMS) |
