IGGY POP – VOLKSHAUS ’86 BROADCAST (2 CD-R)

Description

~ Recorded on a high-quality stereo soundboard from the 1986 “Blah Blah Blah Blah Tour” in Zurich, Switzerland! ~

A new item has been released that was recorded on a high-quality stereo soundboard at the Volkshaus in Zurich, Switzerland on December 12, 1986, from the “Blah Blah Blah Blah Tour” that took place after the release of the eighth album “Blah Blah Blah Blah,” which was produced by Bowie and marked a comeback!

Recorded from a cassette master recorded from an FM broadcast, the mix and balance are impeccably clear. This sound source has long been available on many bootlegs, including Swingin’ Pig’s “Real Wild Child,” but the master used in this work is different, using a cassette recorded from an air recording with clearer sound quality, and of course the pitch that was off in “Real Wild Child” is recorded correctly.

The master used in this work had a few seconds missing from the intro of “TV Eye” and the ending of the last song, “Search And Destroy,” which were filled in from another master. In addition, the positioning deviation caused by the master has been carefully corrected, and the high-frequency sound image has been upgraded to a well-balanced sound through remastering.

The setlist, which opened with the ecstatic Stooges numbers “I Got A Right” and “Gimme Danger,” featured six tracks from their then-new album, “Blah Blah Blah,” including Steve Jones’s collaborations “Fire Girl,” “Cry For Love,” and “Winners And Losers.” The setlist featured Seamus Begen’s keyboards, which seemed to soar through the air, and the band delivered a powerful performance with tight, powerful playing!
