Roxy Music - Live Hammersmith Odeon
May 18, 1979
London, UK
Pre-FM from BBC transcription disc plus bootleg
filler.
Very good to excellent radio broadcast @224
Thanks to Doinker for sharing the tracks.
Thanks also to the person for sharing the track, Editions Of You, at Dime (added here from a different torrent).
Doinker noted:
I thought I would do something different, so here is another
unreleased BBC show. This one is from Roxy Music’s reunion in 1979. It
represents most of the concert they played. None of Roxy’s various fan
sites indicate this material was officially released. As the content of
the BBC disc varies with respect to the bootleg of the same show, the
bootleg was used as filler.
The omission of “Manifesto” from the BBC disc is no
coincidence; the band played the opening number severely out of tune.
The omission of “A Song For Europe”, “Ladytron”, and the two encores is
another matter. Perhaps that had to do with vinyl time constraints or
the length of the broadcast.
The BBC disc used is “BBC College Concert”, from a
rebroadcast in 1983. The bootleg used is “Live At The Hammersmith Odeon
1979″, but is a different, and better pressing than the “79-045″
version. The matrix number is Zink 1/2.
Both discs were brushed with
light click and crackle removal only.
The band is said to be unhappy with the performance of
this music, which is why it was never released. But, aside from the
jangly opening number, it’s a pretty good show.
