Oingo Boingo - Irvine Meadows
Irvine, CA,
Halloween Show
Friday October 30, 1987
Broadcast source @128

1 unchaptered file
2hr 12min.  
 
*Separated Tracks Notes*
I had some time so I dove into cutting the OB 1987 show up into tracks. 
Notes: 1) I didn't edit the file at all, just separated it into tracks.
2) They're cut into FLAC 6 files, made with a free version of Audacity. 
3) When there was more than several seconds of space and/or banter between tracks, I created 'stage banter' tracks. 
4) There are 2 versions of 'It Only Makes Me Laugh.' One version has the crowd noise faded out after the song ends. 
4) Before No One Lives Forever, there was part of a song introduction for a 'new song' called Winning Side or The Winning Side. The recroding was stopped before that song was played and No One Lives Forever kicks in, mid song. I removed the intro for Winning Side and faded in the song. That makes a good CD1 to CD2 break, if listeners want to burn onto disc.
5) 'Winning Side' was part of the soundtrack of the then upcoming move 'She's Out of Control.' The song was included on at least one later album by OB, and versions are available on YouTube. ~Gman

Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo - Forbidden Zone Soundtrack {Out of Print}

Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo 
Forbidden Zone Soundtrack (1980)
Studio Recordings @ 256
{Out of Print}


Before the band Oingo Boingo, Danny Elfman and his brother Richard founded The Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo, which was more of a theatrical troupe than a straight ahead band. It has even been said that the very band was formed as part of Richard Elfman's film project. To watch these guys (and girls) do their thing was like watching an NC-17 rated Betty Boop cartoon on acid, a totally rude and hilariously brilliant musical performance experience. The film "The Forbidden Zone" is/was the only cinematic testament to the existence of this wonderfully weird ensemble, which Maestro Danny evolved into the better known new wave big band Oingo Boingo when the brothers parted ways.
One can get sort of an idea as to the energy of this lost treasure of a film from the soundtrack selections. A highlight is Danny's take on Cab Calloway in Minnie the Moocher, which was a staple of the Mystic Knights' original performances. Another is actress Susan Tyrell's performance of "Witch's Egg", which she also penned the lyrics for. There are also the wonderful instrumental intervals, which range from punchy funky cartoonish to surprisingly beautiful (the blatantly Satie-ish love theme), and of course the title theme, the style of which was to determine the rock direction of Boingo.



Track List:
1. Forbidden Zone
2. 'Hercules' Family Theme
3. Some of These Days
4. Journey Through the Intestines
5. Squeezit's Vision of his 'Sister'
6. Queen's Revenge
7. Factory
8. Love Theme/Squeezit and the Chickens
9. Flash and Gramps
10. Squeezit the Moocher (Minnie the Moocher)
11. Alphabet Song
12. Cell 63
13. Witch's Egg
14. Yiddishe Charleston
15. Bim Bam Boom
16. Chamber Music
17. Pleure
18. Battle of the Queens
19. Love Theme - King and Queen
20. Finale
