Show 146 - Sigue Sigue Sputnik - Live At London School Of Economics - 12 Dec 1985
It's not often you come across Sigue Sigue Sputnik live recordings so when a listener said he had one I was only too happy to borrow his tape and transfer it to a lossless digital format.
This is an audience recording from what sounds like a not very full LSE. I now have software that can remove some of the natural ambience from audience recordings and make the music a bit more prominent, so that was my first step. Then fixing a few tape dropouts and noises before removing tape noise. The last stage was then controlling volume levels at various points and applying a 30 band EQ to the restored recording to improve the sound quality.
I hope you enjoy this much improved recording. You can safely download all of this improved recording for free HERE as one 320 kbps MP3 file with no nasty pop ups or ads getting in the way.
Or, if you would like to support the site with a small donation towards storage subscription and internet costs, in return you can have the remastered show as separate, properly tagged MP3s or even lossless files in FLAC format; head on over to the Donations tab to see how you can do this.
Either way - enjoy the show!
