J-Card Comment The first half of the concert I taped with an AIWA walkman and an extra microphone
(I can't remember what microphone it was).
I recorded it from the middle of the audience-mob about 20 meters from the stage.
The sound quality is very good +, it is a nice and typical audience recording.

The second part nearly sounds the same, so it might also be recorded from the ground
floor, but I have no idea....

For part one: Here's my master from that Bowie-show way back in 1983.
I only have a master from the first part. My cassette-recorder did not record the second part.
And I still can really understand him!!!
This was a big shit. Bowie at his worst and a really boring performance.
If I would have been my walkman I also would not have recorded the second part.
I think I would have stopped much earlier!!

..and now, as I grabbed out the second part of it and I remembered who once taped it and
send it over I thought I reseed this one again -for a last time. And this time the
complete version.

This was and still is my only time I saw Bowie in my life. I completely forgot
him afterwards, but I know that he did much better shows in the early years of this
millenium and he is much better now. O.k., he cannot be worse.
..ah, and he just returned with an exhibition at London and a vinyl-recording or so...

Anyway, here's what I do have from that evening now.
..and all you Bowie-fans out there will like it.
