SPfreaks’ Live Compilation #5 (and final)

[Arthur]

Hi guys,

I feel like doing a final Live Compilation, what about you? My best idea is to use Ayoe her elimination lists, and see if we can find good live recordings of the #1, #2 and maybe even #3 songs. Ayoe, feel like helping me out here to make a list of the eliminations songs here, so I can start searching? I’m sure Dazy is going to help also, since he ordered his live sets recently. And he has a really nice set of them!

OK, let me know… Should I move forward with this?

Why not, I’m in… Ready to rawk out, Arthur, so shout whenever for whatever.

Here’s a ‘lil treat that any SP Fan/Follower should own, the Drown Winter 1992 Demo, sourced from Promo cassette: http://www.mediafire.com/?68iztapy982d3zs

who fixed the speed?

i found the cassette this version comes from on spfreaks.com: http://www.spfreaks.com/default.aspx?pa … &item=1686
maybe this entry can be completed now. (the track length for drown is definitely wrong here.)

the live show is 1992-02-05 montmartre, paris. http://www.splra.org/wiki/index.php?title=Tsp1992-02-05

the version of drown was recorded at waterfront studios. it’s not an alternate mix, but a completely different recording. wikipedia probably copied its info from here: http://www.spfc.org/band/studio.html?session_id=12

old tape transfer: http://www.archive.org/details/tsp1992-02-05.shn

They chose to remain anonymous. I suppose this one will remain a mystery.

Will borrow one of Arthur’s for that, thanks.

[Cool As Ice Cream]

is the speed actually fixed, or was it overlooked that these are two different recordings and that they don’t necessarily have the same speed?

this is just a thought. i haven’t checked the upload myself, because i’m still at work.
will check later.

[amnesia]

No problem Arthur.

I will look into this and then PM you the list.

And YAY for a new live compilation, allready looking forward.

the fixed version sounds a lot better than the tape rip, which is clearly too fast.

Entry completed, thanks for the research, Bram!

And yeah, the fixed version of Drown sounds a lot better. I wished they had done that to the whole tape, since the Paris live gig is worthwhile a listen too!

Good work, Cakie.

Should be a good release, Arthur, looking forward to it.

I’m a-goin’ AWOL a while from ‘t Outernets, so hope everybody enjoys this release and takes the time to remember D’Arcy in; ”The Good ‘ol Days.\" Rawk awn and ((( Digihugs ))) to fellow Pumpkins. I’ve personally put several years into supporting Corgan & Co, hopefully that SP sparkle & magic comes on back as it usually does. I believe in them. \\m/ Rawk awn \\m/

[Arthur]

This has to wait a bit guys, I’m in the middle of several interviews with the guys that arranged Smashing Pumpkins to have their first gigs outside the US/Canada in 1991, and it might all lead to a pretty cool read again (remember the Melkweg interview of 2009?).

Also I might have a new Dutch date/venue for the 1992 European tour, but that takes some more research. I’m even trying to find a recording of that so-far-unknown Dutch gig, but no promises… At least I want some more proof like posters, tickets, contracts etc. Keep you posted, as usual!
