Tech Notes THE POLICE THE PALLADIUM NYC 11-29-79 WNEW FM


Number 6 in the continuing series of my basement tapes. This is another outstanding recording of the POLICE as they emerge as one of the top acts in rock. Several new songs are introduced in this set and strangely enough ?Can?t Stand Losing You? is NOT played. Odd that they would not play their biggest hit up until that point. You can hear how the band has evolved as they open with ?Next to You? and close the show with a ?Next To You? reprise. Almost like a Vegas act. The rawness of the music remains, but it seems as if they have polished their act on this lengthy tour. Once again, thanks to Serius Joe for his remastering efforts. For some unknown reason he left off the DJ's closing comments. I don?t know how everyone else feels about me including the DJ, but for me, it sets the mood and gives me a time frame to reference by.

SETLIST:

1. DJ INTRO
2. NEXT TO YOU
3. SO LONELY
4. TRUTH HURTS EVERYBODY
5. WALKING ON THE MOON
6. HOLE IN MY LIFE
7. DEATHWISH
8. FALLOUT

10. VISIONS OF THE NIGHT

Keep those comments coming in, as it inspires me to keep going forward with this project. It is quite a bit of work and your comments keep me going. It?s nice to know that someone is enjoying the fruits of my labor. Next up is the second of the two My Fathers Place shows broadcast over WLIR FM. Enjoy everyone!!!!!
