Show 191 - Eurythmics - Live At Hammersmith Odeon London - 3 December 1983


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
Originally an FM radio broadcast. Copies online are usually marked as 2 December 1983 - but all sources I can find point to the band playing ending the UK tour by playing on the 2 and 3 December at the Hammersmith Odeon, and as you will hear, Annie Lennox does say "this is the last night of the Touch tour" which would suggest the recording is from the 3 December, so that's what I've gone with.

What Was Done
Fortunately only a couple of dropouts and a bad edit needed fixing before I got to work - the applause after Who's That Girl? is chopped off suddenly (someone turning the tape over, I suspect!) and the beginning of "I Could Give You (A Mirror)" is similarly truncated, so I blended those together so the recording flows better. Once that was done, I got to work with EQ and the usual studio toys to bring some clarity to the sound mix, and then mastered to make it clearer and more powerful overall. The result is really really nice; I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Supporting The Site

Firstly - there's another, earlier Eurythmics show on the site, so make sure you check out that one as well if you haven't already. 

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.
