| Notes | Warren Zevon (solo/acoustic) Rockefeller's Houston, TX May 23, 1985 (early show) Soundboard recording Another great torrent from Mexminute/TheCommish (from the Mexminute archives) **mp3 samples provided (as always) in the Comments section** A must-have show by the late Warren Zevon (Jan. 24, 1947-Sept. 7, 2003). It's hard to believe it's been 5 years already. Note: Unlike many Warren Zevon recordings, this particular show CANNOT be found (yet, at least) in the Live Music Archive at www.archive.org. However, the archive does have a nice-looking June 18, 1986 Zevon show from Rockefeller's, found here: http://www.archive.org/details/Zevon1986-06-18.early Setlist: 101. Frank and Jesse James 102. Start Me Up (Rolling Stones) > 103. Poor, Poor Pitiful Me 104. Veracruz 105. Reconsider Me 106. Detox Mansion 107. Bill Lee 108. Roland The Headless Thompson Gunner 201. Johnny Strikes Up The Band 202. Accidentally Like A Martyr 203. Tenderness On The Block 204. Boom Boom Mancini 205. The Factory 206. Werewolves Of London 207. Not Fade Away (Buddy Holly) > 208. Lawyers, Guns and Money 209. Announcements Lineage: SBD > 1st gen cassette > CDR > EAC > WAV > Editing (below) > FLAC Frontend > FLAC Editing notes: * Re-tracked entire show by combing with Nero's wave editor and then re-splitting with CD Wave * Deleted 19 seconds of audience applause at beginning of Track 101 and faded in with Nero's wave editor * Deleted about 5 seconds at end of Track 107; faded out applause with Nero * Removed small glitch at 6:15 mark of Track 205 * Made numerous volume adjustments using Nero's wave editor (see notes below) in order to balance-out the overall volume of the show. Unfortunately, the original recording had some pronounced volume fluctuations: some spots were REALLY loud whereas other parts/tracks were difficult to hear. Conservatively, I spent a couple hours trying to adjust the volume so that the show would play more evenly. I tried to avoid having the show exceed peak volume as best I could, but some spots on the original recording were a bit "hot" and I tried to blend everything together as best as I could. Overall, I'm extremely happy with the end result. |
