Show 203 - China Crisis - Live at Malibu Nightclub - Long Island- 16 July 1985

 

A quick request. If you plan on downloading this and putting it on your YouTube channel or your own bootleg page - I don't mind. But a credit to this website where you found it and a link back to this page would be really appreciated. It helps me gauge which artists are popular - ie more chance of other restorations coming. Don't just steal it, cut out the intro and outro and take the credit. Thanks.

The Show
An FM stereo recording from a local station at the time. As such it's probably not the whole show but what is here was in pretty good shape.

What Was Done
A few volume drops, tape dropouts fixed but overall nothing major to repair. Most of the work this time was on improving, not so much "fixing". EQ and the usual studio toys brought clarity to the sound mix, tightened up the drums and bass, and then I mastered to make it clearer and more powerful overall. Twice. I did it once, left it a couple of days, realised I didn't like it, so went back and did it again. The result is a really clear show though; I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Supporting The Site

If you want to support the work I do on these recordings, and the site, and (if you wish to) obtain separate, fully tagged 320kbps MP3s of this restoration for less than the price of a coffee in return, or lossless FLACs or even a lossless copy on CDR, head on over to the Rewards For Donations tab to see how you can obtain these for a very small donation towards the site costs. There is no obligation to do so of course - you can take the file on this page absolutely for free - but every single donation does go towards this site and domain/storage costs, and helps the site stay open, and helps me do more shows. Either way, enjoy the show.
