Radio Broadcast Recordings. Unauthorized.
Has no obvious indicators, where and when the product was released.
CD 1 is of excellent Quality, wich made me first thought of a BBC concert. I searched for it and have found indeed the BBC Concert from the Show at Hamnersmith Odeon, London, UK on 18th of May 1979. I compared both recordings and they are the same, even if the recordings of this release are often cut when the audience reacts after the songs.
CD 2 didn't sound like a Radio Broadcast, more like a bootleg recorded from the audience. I can hear that the couple holding a conversation at the beginning of 'Like a Hurricane' is speaking german. But they can have been in another country, of course.
After "Jealous Guy" Bryan Ferry seems to say...
"Thank you, Rotterdam! Nice Way Home."
Roxy Music played at Ahoy, Rotterdam, Netherlands on 4th and 5th of September 1982.
CD 3 - > There are power regulations at the beginning of the recordings. Remarkable is that the clarinet at the beginning of 'Ladytron' is very low noise in the background. Usually it is very clear and loud in front hearable. This can be of help finding another recording with the same indication!
By the Quality of the recordings, I would guess it for a mixing desk recording or a Broadcast.
Tried to find out something about the places of the other recordings by listening to the recordings for interaction between band and audience. But I didn't heard anything revealing the mystery.
The ends of the Songs are very straight blendend out in general. Sometimes even the clapping after the Songs is missing!
