Show 190 - The Cult -The Arlington Theatre Santa Barbara - 28 April 1986

 

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

Another band long overdue an appearance on on the site - The Cult. This sounds like an FM broadcast but as there's no radio chatter at all - no jingles either - I suspect this was a recording prepared for broadcast, rather than the actual broadcast itself (if you see what I mean). As such it was overall in good shape but a bit flat.

What Was Done

The usual listen through fixing odd gaps and dropouts and parts where the sound changes noticeably - a few changes in volume from track to track. The recording was lacking quite a lot in the bottom end so I then got to work with EQ and the usual studio toys to bring some clarity to the sound mix, and make it clearer and more powerful overall.

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, 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.
