Notes: TA master series volume 98 - AUD0 - MASTER Mike Mills also played "pills" and maybe a few more songs at King's Head Inn (Norfolk, Va.) with the Waxing Poetics in a short set after this show Taper Anonymous here - I hope that everyone has enjoyed my "TA archive series" as much as I enjoyed reading the comments. This year marks my 35th year for taping, trading and collecting live concerts. The last 6 shows (#95-#100) in the TA Series should be considered my "reserve tapes" featuring rare, sometimes uncirculated captures of my favorite bands. These last shows mark the end to my series. While these wont be the last postings of mine, it is now time to sit back and watch what other treasures from my favorite bands get posted. Consider my efforts in the "TA series" to be my "shaking of the trees" in the hopes that other collectors come out of the woodwork. Things have changed over the years from snail mail analog trades through Goldmine, to $30 "live CD's", to the click of a mouse to download a show that was captured less than 24 hours prior. For many years I have been an unapologetic tape hoarder. This may sound foreign to the youngsters and noobs on here, but there was a time when concerts were traded minute for minute and not shared freely unless you were "in" with the "clique" with like rarities. Sometimes these trades would take months and therefore a long wait to hear a recently played show. Over the last few years I have had a change of heart by seeing many old school tapers dig into their boxes of crispy uncirculated D6 masters and unselfishly offer up new "Master series" with many bands that I collect. Thank you for those that take the time to crawl into your attic to find your old analogs, adjust your azimuth and transfer, track etc. If you have enjoyed my series and have tapes in your parents basement, please consider reaching out to those on here who have the tools to proper preserve these treasures before it is too late. If an analog tape was not traded multiple times, there is a chance that it might not ever get digitized and therefore cease to exist among collectors. Here we have a fine recording of the Reconstruction tour made by an unknown taper. A lower quality, generated version has made the rounds in trading circles so this should be an upgrade to most collectors. There has been an avalanche of early REM masters including soundboards make the rounds in the past year or two. I am not sure what other "JEMS" are out there but thank you in advance for opening your REM collections and posting shows from the 80's.
