| J-Card Comment | Missing Persons My Father's Place Roslyn, N.Y. (Long Island) September 25, 1981 source: FM broadcast tape (unknown generation) performance quality: A recording quality: A- runtime: 48:18 lineage: cassette (Maxell XLII, recieved in trade, unknown gen.) > soundforge 4.5 (to WAV) > FLAC 6 > torrent. Sorry, this is not a 3 step torrent from me, but it is a 3 step for you. setlist: 1: stage introduction 2: mental hopscotch 3: noticable one 4: It aint none of your business 5: bad streets 6: U.S. drag 7: windows 8: here and now 9: walking in L.A. 10: hello, I love you (Doors) 11: no way out 12: destination unknown 13: action reaction 14: radio announcer wrap up 15; action reaction [ demo] comments: This is a short (but complete) set and a rocker from Missing Persons, the earliest one I've heard and my only one with Action Reaction, one of the few with a U.S drag (and Terry Bozzio solo). It's an energetic, fun set with many of the songs that would appear on Spring Session M a couple of years before it came out. Already sounding fine in this show, spacey rocky cover of Hello I love you (I recall hearing that on 1 other recording but I forget which one). There is 1 brief dropout in Windows, apparently due to tape wear, this tape had been played some and is a few generations from the master but not so many that it sounds hissy. Still a nice recording, no other noticable flaws to my ears, the last song is from a different source so I could get the whole song uncut, but all is very comparable quality. You may not even notice any change at all. I think this was a free afternoon concert, don't know if it was broadcast live, this is from a recorded broadcast on WLIR-FM and I'm almost certain it is the full show, probably a typical length set for MP around this time since they didn't know alot of songs yet. Sounded like they already knew these well. The DJ. at start of the show makes reference to MP being a "new band" (I'll say, nobody had heard of them yet, only that Zappa's former drummer was in it. That was good enough for me.) If anyone has MP in Boston 1983, Please seed it! My tape was taken at show by security goon and it was a great show! Terry burned! |
