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
The text file with the CD rip I received suggested this was a soundboard recording but I think this is far more likely to be a stereo FM broadcast. In any case, it's the full show from the only UK date of Bowie's tour of festivals around Europe in the Summer of 1996; a tour that featured a slimmed down version of the band he had played the 1.Outside tour with a few months earlier.
What Was Done
There were a few clicks to remove but the biggest fault was a gap in
the sound at 1 point (with a small bit of music missing). All I could really do was
fade that out and cross back in so it doesn't disturb your listening
anything like as much.
Once that was done, I got to work on what was a rather flat recording - EQ and the usual studio toys really improved the sound a lot - you can really hear everything going on now. Finally, I mastered it to make it clearer and more powerful. The result is really really excellent - both Bowie and the band are on top form; this is a great gig.

If
you want to support the work I do on these recordings, 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. There is NO OBLIGATION to do so of course - you can take the
file on this page absolutely for free - but every single donation is appreciated and helps me do more shows and update some of the
software I use as time goes by. Either way, enjoy the show.
