LDB Special Series #337 (RLR collection)
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.
I think I have something really special to share with all Dimers, but first a bit of background. RLR has been a very active
trader back in the early 80´s with very wide musical tastes: he could go from Kiss to Joni Mitchell; from Genesis to Deep
Purple, Queen, Simple Minds, The Who, Springsteen and many more. In the past I could access his enormous collection to get
many U2 tapes some of which I have been sharing with you folks.
RLR had all sorts of tapes in his collection, traded not long after the show happened so most of them are low generation, in
particular tons of shows recorded in Italy which to me are some of the most interesting. Some of them, I had never seen
circulating in the trading circuit. Unfortunately he did not care about generation so this info, except for the shows he
has as masters, is not available.
RLR has kindly given me access once again to his collection. It was like a "kid in a toy shop" situation: it was hard to
select tapes and at the end I came home with some 250 tapes to listen and eventually to transfer in the digital domain. Some
of them will be shared here, possibly the most interesting ones.
I am ok with globs and sites to re-post my seeds - provided they are in lossless form - however I ask you to keep intact the infos of the concert including that this is part of LDB series. And I am referring to (and not only):

Bruce Springsteen - guitar, vocals, harmonica
Roy Bittan - piano
Clarence Clemons - saxophone, percussion, background vocals
Danny Federici - organ, electronic glockenspiel, accordion
Garry Tallent - bass guitar
Steven Van Zandt - guitars, background vocals
Max Weinberg - drums
I like the sound of this one. I was transferring it and listening at the same time and I kind of liked the ambience and audience
reaction. The performance was also nice. Although the show ended with the outro music, the audience did not leave the hall and
requested one more encore.
Still not my best tour but not bad. To finish off this mini-series for the Boss, I will dig into something older than this (look
the photo in the comment...)
