live bootlegs
here's a handy place to put those boots from this tour people keep saying they're listening to
'raging and weeping are left on the early road
now each in his holy hill
the glittering and hurting days are alomst done
then let us compare mythologies
i have learned my elaborate lie
of soaring crosses and poisened thorns'

Re: live bootlegs
moderators: what's the state of play regarding recordings from this tour?
ordinarily i'd have no hesitation posting, but considering they played pretty much the whole new album, which won't be released for months, i'm pretty torn.
some guidance, please...

Re: live bootlegs
Listening to the Lemington show right now... good quality (thanks They Transmit... good job!)
I'm going to try and split it into individual WAV and MP3 versions...
For what its worth, i'm actually really suprised how good the new songs sound...

Re: live bootlegs
I think we can safely say there will be no issues here - obviously contact me should this not be the case.
I'm definitely looking forward to hearing some of that wonderful new material again!
I'd like to think most people would buy the new record in March as well.
You can always leave it as a 'PM me for details' thing but I'd suspect you'll be drowned in requests...

Re: live bootlegs
Thanks sml, dl'ing right now. Btw search for spz on the page, not in the search box.
I'm in the louder is better camp, so more looking forward to the Leamington boot based on what I've read here, but I just can't wait to hear the songs again as I can never quite make an opinion on just one listen (unless I'm blown away, but that rarely happens on first listens, and didn't happen on Sunday).

Re: live bootlegs
Thanks very much for this!...its sounding good so far....and track 1 at least doesn't sound like any fucking ballad - good old wall of noise at the moment...
Re: live bootlegs
Thank you for the recording. Have not heard the new material...actually haven't seen them in 8 years. Far too long.

Re: live bootlegs
Many thanks sml42 - great job..
Re: live bootlegs
No need to bother - I've done it and will post once I've listened to it (only reason I say this is because I recorded it so would like to include the lineage etc with the fileset when its distributed).Laz69 wrote:Listening to the Lemington show right now... good quality (thanks They Transmit... good job!)

I've already uploaded the mp3s but always like to listen to it all before I share a link just in case there are any glitches. Should have finished listening to it by tomorrow afternoon and will follow with the flacs over the weekend. It does sound nice.
Re: live bootlegs
Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!! Thanks to all who have or are going to post up links. You are scholars and gents.

Re: live bootlegs
PontiacB- apologies if you were hanging on before distributing, no harm meant. I just sent the link out to a few folks via facebook. Kept away from posting the link here as I suspected you'd be taking the lead on that.

Re: live bootlegs
Absolutely no problems at all - its nice to get it out to people that are interested asap, shame I'm out tonight or else I'd have it up!

Re: live bootlegs
can people clarify what's what here?
the link that sml42 was recorded by sml42?
& there is a lemington recording made by pontiac & mastered by theytransmit floating around awaiting being upped to a torrent??
bit underwhelmed by the new songs tbh. too many ballads.
obv bootlegs & live shows aren't the ideal way to experience new material but still i was hoping for a lot more ruckus.
i mean don't get me wrong, when Sitting on Fire was Old Flame & performed at the Daniel Johnston tribute it immediately became one of my all time fave spaceman songs & i love that & the AM versions over the studio one - by contrast i thought Soul on Fire (& even Baby I'm Just a Fool) were p dull live on the AM shows but whenever i first heard the crackle of the Walking on Thin Ice remix sample i freaked out & i musta played Soul of Fire about a thousand times the summer A&E came out.
but none of the ballads, save the final one, really made any impression after listening to the RAH boot sml42 linked to. Mama Said is ok but there's too many lyrics in it now.
i thought the IAWIA rework was brilliant & exciting & the first song was great too. but the 2nd song i have to agree with the dissenters i thought it was boring & lame. didn't really care for Straight to the Top - but it could go like BIJAF & be really great in the studio..
definitely not as excited about the new material as i was before hearing it!

Re: live bootlegs
I really love Sitting On Fire/Old Flame too Jack, I remember hearing that first version from the Daniel Johnston show (after it taking an age to download) and it really knocked me out, right away.
is there really that many ballads on the new album? I'd generally say pop songs was more on the mark. apart from a couple, at least the ballads sound a little different from another Stop Your Crying/Soul In Fire rerun anyways.
also, for what it's worth I think boardmember kevin (toomilk) talked to Kevin Bales after the Edinburgh show and that there may be more new songs that they didn't play. who knows, these might be more rocky and noisy ones.
big thanks to all the bootleggers on this site, you do a sterling job and can't wait to hear the recordings of these gigs.

yea that is fairer way to put it. they are pop songs albeit a bit of a kitchen-sink method except i'd like more noise & spacerock in them.
& i'm sure j'll sprinkle some magic dust (ahem) in the studio and polish them into pop pocket opera's.

Re: live bootlegs
Here's They Transmit's mastered recording of the Leamington show
mp3
http://www.sendspace.com/file/impi75
flacs
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=SOBYORFN
Note that the flacs are on megaupload which only allows a single download at a time on the free account. I'll be sticking them on Dime as a torrent in the next hour so that's probably a more efficient way of getting the flacs if youy've got an account there.
All the info re the recording is in the .txt file. Basically it was recorded 4 rows back left side using Church Audio CA11 cards>BB>iRiver and was Eqed, Stereo separated a bit, Dynamically compressed as part of the mastering process by They Transmit. Hope I haven't missed any tracks splits - not sure about the mega long 2nd from last song(s).
Thanks again to They Transmit for working on this - its one thing spending time on your own recording, but offering your time to play with someone's recording who you don't know was very kind. Think it sounds really good. I'm also happy to post the unmastered (but tidied up) version sometime if anyone is interested as I know some people don't like processed live recordings and would rather here the 'as it was' version, warts and all. I'm somewhere between the two, always interested to hear mastered versions from people who have the right gear and a musical ear, but also like to listen to the raw recordings.
Any problems let me know.

Re: live bootlegs
MASSIVE thanks to the people who made the effort to record and share the recent shows. I know I'm not the only one who appreciates it hugely.
Re: live bootlegs
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! A thousand times thank you to everyone that sorted this out. Excellent work!!

Re: live bootlegs
"Songs in R&H" now happily on my iPod with website poster as cover art. Pleased with album title, although realise should really be RAH.
Re: live bootlegs
Just signed up an account to offer a big thanks to those that took the time to make their recordings available.
Was blown away by the RAH gig and that, along with the recording, has totally rekindled my love for Spiritualized.
Ticket for Bristol next year already booked!

Re: live bootlegs
i'm trying not to overlisten to them to prevent the album being ruined. i think in hindsight with A&E a lot of the 'big' songs i already new from the acoustic boots therefore it lessoned the impact and i had something to go 'well it was better in this format etc'

Re: live bootlegs
I'm trying to do the same Ben. the acoustic mainlines versions of a lot of songs sounded so warm and luminous, then some the studio versions sounded a bit dry and with really croaky singing..bunnyben wrote:i'm trying not to overlisten to them to prevent the album being ruined. i think in hindsight with A&E a lot of the 'big' songs i already new from the acoustic boots therefore it lessoned the impact and i had something to go 'well it was better in this format etc'
i don't want to burn the songs out before the album.. i really hope Jason nails them in the studio
