1984-11-28 Teatro Tenda, Milan, Italy/Source 1
Notes
A good audience recording. Treble is a little shrill, but not as bad as the prior transfer which may have had EQ applied. This new transfer also plays at the correct speed and has better defined bass. There are strange clicks in the left channel throughout the recording, perhaps from a magnetized capstan shaft on the recording equipment imprinting the clicks as it rotated; the prior transfer is also similarly affected. The concert intro, "Shout", and "Just Can't Get Enough" are missing on this recording. Something To Do fades in, Ice Machine is missing the last several seconds due to tape flip, and Lie To Me fades in due to tape flip.
DM Live purchased this cassette on eBay along with two other Fabio B. DM masters (1984-03-06 Milan and 1987-10-29 Turin). Thanks to Vince for his assistance with procuring these tapes.
Source 2 is a worse sounding, muffled audience recording, but contains the last two tracks not present on this recording; Ice Machine is incomplete, and Master And Servant is missing.
