I transferred this direct from an audio tape acquired in the early 1980’s. It has subsequently appeared as a bootleg (presumably from the same source), hence the awful title, but I don’t know if the sound quality differs as I haven’t heard the boot.

Great concert
After the beatifully sung My Death,the film of the cosmos rushing at high speed towards the audience was again produced,accompanied by all kinds of space sounds. The audien­ce’s response to this is quite funny: lots of “Oh my god”s and some one says “Oh god,I have never seen anything like it!”. The film charges into Supermen ,this time in a special perfor­ mance: Bowie sings the first lyrics and then the band join in. Very good!
Bowie announces the new songs of Aladdin Sane. “That was called Aladdin Sane. This is called Panic in Detroit,which was written in Detroit” Bowie says,and immediately afterwards a man from the audience can be heard to shout “When’s your album corning out?”. But there is no reply from Bowie!

==================================
Remaster details:
* Both files opened in ADOBE and downgraded to 44.1 kHz – 16 bit,
* The first 70 minutes (up to TWOAC) sounded different from the last part, so they were treated differently.
PART ONE:
– minor dehiss
– gentle low and mid tweak to soften the rather harsh recording
– leveled the recording to match part two
PART TWO:
– dehissed
– gentle mid tweak to soften the rather harsh recording

* Crossfaded part one and two – no music missing
* Created a fade in and fade out at the beginning and end of the recording – no music missing
* Fixed a few gaps – no music missing
* Smoothened the transistion from MD into TWOAC – no music missing

* Fixed SBE with TLH
