Doing some cleanup in the JEMS archive and found a very poor and warbly recording of Bowie's third night at the Forum on April 6, 1978. I see no recording of this show on the tracker. Is there a known recording? If not, would anyone like to take a crack at working on this one? Happy to send the files.

Setlist:

01 Introduction

03 Heroes
04 What In The World
05 Be My Wife
06 Jean Genie
07 Blackout
08 Sense Of Doubt
09 Speed Of Life

21 Art Decade
22 Station To Station

Processing details:
Deleted 8.9s of noise at start
Fade in track 01 (crowd noise)
Deleted 0.1s of static noise in track 01 (fade out)
Deleted a gap of 0.1s in track 10
Deleted a gap of 1s in track 11 (fade in/out)
Replaced right channel with left channel in parts of track 11 and 12 due to only noise on right channel. Replaced 4m56s.
Deleted 2 gaps of 0.5s in track 22
Fade out track 22
Deleted 3m46s of noise at end

Info:

The concert has serious speed/pitch issues. It runs about 5% too fast except for STS that starts a little faster and end at 30-35% too fast. In Station to Station Bowie sounds like Mickey Mouse on acid.
In the noise at the end of the concert I think I can hear Stay in the background running maybe at 200% speed.

I have done no speed correction to this version.

This recording is from the collection of the private collector that provides tapes for the BOWSTAT series,
but this recording is not worthy a BOWSTAT release.

Thanks for posting those. I didn't see the show pop up when I did a search.

Should anyone care to compare, here is a sample of the raw transfer I have with obvious speed fluctuation issues.

Why not make it available to all with a torrent or file transfer at least it will then be shared like other members do on this site. The sample is no longer there.

They plan to share. It needs a lot of work.
