A very good complete recording of the Defector (from Genesis) on his "Defector" tour. this is a first time ever master seed from this source. not a word or note of anything in this show is missing. Both flips were between songs, and after some rather intensive ICPVR (individual clap peak volume reduction) this (2007) Easter weekend, this sounds better than ever and has not been very widely circulated, never before in lossless form from the master. I have not edited anything out of this, from Steve's walkon to last walkoff is all on tape and there are no fadeins or fadeouts or overlaps (as I usually do with shows of over 80 min.) There are a few places you can break this up if burning to disc, if burning to DAT you get full continuity on this one. the crowd was enthusiastic, and also polite, not too much heard from them in the recording except between the songs. I've seen Steve 3X, the first with Genesis in 1976. Always seen a fine show from him, this one included. I thought about cutting out the encore breaks to try and fit it on 1 disc. I notice several 1980 Hackett shows are on a single disc, but this wouldn't quite make it. there's nothing edited out of here. you get the whole story, encore breaks and everything else, no interruptions in the recording except 2 tape flips between songs, spliced seamlessly. You may not even be able to notice where they are. |
