THE STYLE COUNCIL
Chippenham 1984 [no label, 1CD]
Live at Goldiggers, Chippenham, UK; March 10, 1984 (broadcast). Very good FM.
Thanks to guesswho for sharing the show at Dime.
guesswho noted:
Discovered a bunch of FM concert broadcasts I recorded onto cassette back in the day. BBC Radio One broadcast of 39 minutes of the gig as part of the Sight and Sound series. Once on my PC I put the raw file through Adobe Audition to tweak the sound slightly including speed correcting. I then tracked using Audacity before converting to FLAC using TLH.
The video is widely available on You Tube.
Lineage:
Tuner - Pioneer Cassette - Akai Cassette - PC - Adobe Audition - Audacity - TLH - Flac
