Notes

-No fades between discs so that the set can be joined seamlessly on longer media
-the windscreens took a little of the high end sparkle off of the tape, so I added a dB of 10k & 16k

I’m stunned … I’ve never seen a show drop off etree before, but this one has. Hmmm.

I’m swimming in new studio releases, so I’m going from two studio / five bootlegs to three studio / four bootlegs for the forseeable future …

• Led Zeppelin’s Houses of the Holy. BMG finally decided that they weren’t shipping this to me, so I bought it on Amazon. Feh.
  
• The Cardigans’ Super Extra Gravity. Part of the binge I went on lately was filling out my Cardigans discography.
  
• Coldplay’s Viva La Vida.
  
• 25 Oct 1997 [Utica, NY, USA] concert bootleg of Blues Traveler. 1997-10-25: Utica Memorial Auditorium, Utica, NY, USA (disc 1), 1997-10-25: Utica Memorial Auditorium, Utica, NY, USA (disc 2), and 1997-10-25: Utica Memorial Auditorium, Utica, NY, USA (disc 3).
  
• 1 Sep 2007 [Denver, CO, USA] concert bootleg of Wilco. 2007-09-01: The Fillmore Auditorium, Denver, CO, USA (disc 1) and 2007-09-01: The Fillmore Auditorium, Denver, CO, USA (disc 2).
  
• 26 Apr 2008 [Dayton, OH, USA] concert bootleg of Over the Rhine. 2008-04-26: Canal Street Tavern, Dayton, OH, USA (disc 1) and 2008-04-26: Canal Street Tavern, Dayton, OH, USA (disc 2).
  
• 27 May 2008 [Milan, Italy] concert bootleg of Feist. 2008-05-27: Magazzini Generali, Milan, Italy
  

Last week:

• Radiohead’s In Rainbows. Admittedly, I’ve never really gotten into Radiohead, the way Amy’s never gotten into Wilco. But I really liked this one. Four stars.
  
• Angels & Airwaves’ I-Empire. I was fully prepared to hate it, but it was merely okay. There are some decent moments, but it feels too … processed and commercial … for my tastes. Two-and-a-half stars.
  
• 18 Jul 1990 [New York, NY, USA] concert bootleg of Uncle Tupelo. A fun, fun listen from a by-gone era. Three stars.
  
• 4 Aug 1997 [Atlanta, GA, USA] concert bootleg of Counting Crows. I’m always tempted to give old recordings a break when I review them, but at the end of the day, well, if I rate them too highly, then I’ll have to listen to them too often in iTunes. [I listen to iTunes nearly exclusively in Party Shuffle mode.] This sounds like a bad FM radio broadcast from just slightly out of the coverage area—treble-heavy, static-y, and generally plain bad. One-and-a-half stars, but only because it’s Adam Duritz in his good years.
  
• 6 Jul 2002 [Bushnell, IL, USA] concert bootleg of Over the Rhine. I’m impressed that a six-year-old bootleg sounds this good. This is exactly how an AUD should sound, to my ears—a faithful representation of how the room sounded. Given that this took place under a tent at Cornerstone, it’s all the more impressive. Jeff, if you did record this, you deserve kudos, sir. Four stars.
  
• 16 Oct 2007 [Montréal, QC, Canada] concert bootleg of Spoon. Sadly, the recording is distant and indistinct. Two stars.
  
• 2 Mar 2008 [Nashville, TN, USA] concert bootleg of Wilco. Freakin’ Ryman and their no-recording rules. No wonder this recording stinks. One-and-a-half stars. [Seriously, I hate the Ryman for that. It's all stealth rigs. Nazis.]
