I should also mention that I am totally new to blogging, so I'll be on a bit of a learning curve as I get my sea legs. I need to figure out how to create links in the right-hand column, especially a link for the download archive that will eventually exist here.
The idea will be to present a show any given day and provide the download link and a little commentary from yours truly about the audio quality and show highlights. Each time I feature a new show (new to this site, not necessarily "new show" as in "recent show"), I will add it to the growing download archive, which will be ordered chronologically for easy searching.
For now I'm just gonna test this out and make sure this link works. It's the 12.18.99 Hampton show, for shits and giggles. And the whole 10-year anny, and what have you,
12.18.99 Hampton - AAC (iTunes) version (not a remaster)
There's another Schoeps mk41 going around on etree right now, but this one sounds much better IMHO, and is a Microtech Geffel 210 pull from BEHIND THE STAGE.
I have to say, I don't think I've ever heard of that before, and after listening to this I don't know why tapers haven't sought out the same exact spot at this venue because this sounds soooo clean for an audience recording it's ridiculous. I've never been to Hampton, but clearly the sound from behind stage is the bees knees. The balloon pops during the first section of Hood are a bit much, but it calms down.
