This is a full show (no tape flip cuts) from the peak of Cheap Trick's popularity, fresh on the heels of "Live at Budokan" and Heaven Tonight studio release. The band and crowd is full of energy this night and even when the bass amp blows out they fix it and carry on with the many big hits they had at this time. This recording comes from the front row of the balcony. It has been circulated on tape before, but this is the 1st time I have uploaded it. I do not know if the fellow with the master cassettes has ever uploaded anything. I have used some EQ on this to boost the high and low end a little, and some ICPVR (individual clap peak volume reduction) to help with the crowd noise, and being in the balcony helped keep the screaming crowd noise bearable. I think anyone who likes Cheap Trick will enjoy hearing this recording. Alot of the songs heard in the live album from Japan are heard here from Boston before a packed house. I wanted to get this thing up as one of my 1st uploads (since I became an "uploader" on dime in Dec. 2006) but port issues prevented that and everything else for almost a year. Hopefully that nightmare is all over now and everyone can hear just how exciting a little cheapness (of the right kind) can be around Christmas time. I cut out some of the encore break applause to make sure this fit on 1 CD but nothing else was cut out and nothing has been speed adjusted. |
