New Order - University of London - 6 Dec 1985

LINK UPDATED

Many thanks to the visitor who went to all the trouble of sending me the cassette of this gig.
Having gone to the trouble myself of getting a cassette walkman via ebay, the result it is fair to say of my technological efforts to convert to digital are not exactly awe-inspiring, nor did I succeed in converting the result into any other format.

So I am making the WAV files available as they are...

I also had another copy of this concert in the bowels of the PC, so that is here too.
And fortunately it is in excellent condition!

The concert starts with Atmosphere, not exactly a personal favourite, but sounds pretty good here.
Procession soon follows, a song which will always remind me of the summer of 1982.

Song listing: here

Enjoy!!

Question

I am currently in the process of uploading a cassette of a New Order concert kindly sent by a visitor onto the compi.

Should I leave it as a two-track file (i.e. one track is one side of the tape), or do I have to divide it up into the individual songs?

Also, what mp3 bitrate do visitors prefer - and is it of interest to make the wav version available (in case anybody feels able or willing to improve its quality)?


Regarding visitors comments: the more the better, but please no "youtube-style" insults!

Thanks

Joy Division - Here Are The Young Men - AUDIO



NEW LINK!!


A You Tube user has evidently been at work with the HATYM video and got more colour out of at least some parts of it.

What's more, the audio has been tweaked too - the result is staggeringly loud!

So loud, in fact, that I went to the trouble of ripping and uploading it.

This is my favourite Joy Division concert, meaning the Manchester nights. I will never forget the first time I watched it and being simply stunned by Curtis's dancing.

Here, there is power as never seen since. Just jaw-dropping.

Here is the second clip - Dead Souls. Wow...........





And here is the audio file:

Joy Division - Rainbow - 9 Nov 1979

This is the same version as already posted in lossless format, but is a bit louder and more bassy.

Sounds just wonderful.....
