What is important actually is the azimuth callibration. You can really improve playback quality with a good calibration. You may be able to do it with a screw driver on the Denon I think....
Here is the Ping Pong Jerry demo BTW: http://www.sendspace.com/file/55ipdb
I don't really want to get any further involved in the debate of whether or not it is right to be uploading these bootlegs for everyone. At the end of the day I cannot be bothered; I am quite happy with my collection and would like to say thank you to Freek for uploading a couple that I didn't have.
I've said my piece and would just like to leave it at that.
Anyway, Eamonn did pay me for copies of bootlegs years ago. I think that he was requesting "A Little Soul" CD1 or something through the Pulp People ads and I sold him a spare copy of that. After exchanging a few emails, he shown an interest in some of the other items I had but had nothing to trade that I didn't have already. As a penniless student, I snapped up the opportunity to make some money and definitely gave him his money's worth. I think that this was before R&A Music. Anyway, it was a deal that satisfied both parties.
Right, the "Blue Girls" sound gap. I remember getting a copy of the Flux bootleg on tape which had that gap then I got a copy of it on CD off Kev who I think repaired it himself by copying and pasting the same part from earlier on in the song. Kev? Are you still about?
Ian, just thought of something...you never came across that VHS tape with ''JMTV Rocks The Garden'' did you? And when is your website going to go live?
LeoVK asked for Happy endings. this is one of the few gigs I have where they played it (and also the rarely played Seconds), I chose the one with the best sound quality to my ears
Thank you so much for that...and it even has Styloroc too, which I also lost with the same PC so a double win! :)
There's some great stuff coming out of this thread. Even the debate (however heated) is an intresting and intriguing. I'm going to have a good dig around my old hard drives. I must have something worth offering...
Ian, just thought of something...you never came across that VHS tape with ''JMTV Rocks The Garden'' did you? And when is your website going to go live?
I cannot find the video but I'll definitely have another look.
My website, interesting one, hopefully in the next couple of months.
Thanks Freek, loving these! Downloading the Air + Jarvis show now, thanks Weed! Any chance of a recording of Your Sister's Clothes, or Someone Like the Moon?

Your Sisters Clothes is on the ULU, London bootleg that Freek posted (quite early on in this thread) - I don't think Someone Like The Moon has ever been played live.
Jarvis wrote it! The man never ceases to amaze. Going by the internet its that album that Air made with Charlotte Gainsbourg. As I'm on a Qantas plane next week, possibly not the best song to put in a playlist...specifically about the cabin burning up.
I've completely missed that album - didnt realise he wrote so many of the tracks. Pick it up in France when im there next week me thinks.
Are there any more recordings of David's Last Summer? I have one from the 27th of April 1994, at Manchester University (my 4th birthday, haha) but no other live recordings of it sadly! Same fro any recordings of Stacks, I've only got one live recording, from L'Olympic 1993.
1992-12-20 Paris 1992-12-23 London 1993-01-29 Paris 1993-02-23 Glasgow 1993-02-26 Manchester 1993-03-02 Leeds 1993-03-05 Portsmouth
David's last summer: I don't have any live recordings of this song...
Oh man, would it take long for you to upload some of these shows?? The only one I have is the 1993-01-29 Paris show! The 1992-12-23 London and 1993-02-26 Manchester shows would be cool.. I could upload the one live version of David's Last Summer I have, though that's not much to offer in return, sorry!!
I'm just really into Pulp shows during 92-93 but hardly have any.
Oh thank you!! The Manchester show sounds like it has been slowed down/pitch has changed, I'll try and set it right and reupload it if anyone is interested!
Sadly I only have this one song (though would love the whole show if anyone has it!) David's Last Summer, Manchester 27th April 1994 (first performance) http://www.mediafire.com/?vpu8kakojjdu2r2
Kev here - to answer Ian from a month ago, I did indeed repair the Flux 1999 'Blue Girls' recording using a few seconds from the first chorus to patch the gap in the second. Good to know the fixed track is still circulating!
I'm going to Wireless so am trying to keep up the excitement by listening to old bootlegs, but not spoiling it by hearing the new ones. But I'm hoping this Toulouse recording is a good one, for enjoying after 3 July!
I'm after a couple of upgrades to recordings that I already have if anyone can help:
28th March 1985 - Hallamshire Hotel, Sheffield
17 November 1992 - Black Session (I am fairly certain a better recording of this exists because I have an MP3 of "The Night" on its own that is better quality than the recording I have of the full set)
23 December 1992 - The Powerhaus, London
"Live Bed Show" live at V96 (it was released on a compilation entitled "Long Live Tibet")
15/22 March 1998 - BBC Radio 1 - Do You Remember The First Time? (part 1), From Disco to Hardcore (part 2) Radio Documentary
I'll quite happily trade if the quality is good enough.
I used to have a tape of a live version of His Or Hers where Jarvis slags off Depeche Mode. Think I mentioned it on here before but nobody had it. Any sign of that? Or clues to which gig it was at least?
Yep, that rings a bell. He called them ''bankers from Basildon'' or somesuch. I think it may have been from a BBC Radio broadcast (Glasgow Apr '94, or Aston Villa Leisure Centre Oct '94?) or a bootleg from Keele Uni also springs to mind.
Ian - I have that '98 documentary on the 'This Is Hardcore Radio Special' promo CD. I can upload it if you like (any preference over the format - MP3, FLAC?).
Freek - thanks for sharing so much stuff! If I haven't left it too late, is there any chance you could upload: "Comedown People" 1998-07-?? I think this comes from a radio or TV broadcast from the Les Eurockeennes Festival.
Freek, would you mind uploading the La CIgale, Paris gig from Nov 2001? As far as I know, it contains the only live version of Bob Lind. One of my favourite songs on We Love Life, very under-rated imo, a pity that it didn't get more airings.
Ian - I have that '98 documentary on the 'This Is Hardcore Radio Special' promo CD. I can upload it if you like (any preference over the format - MP3, FLAC?).
Ooh. I'd love to hear this as well. My tape broke on part 2 and I was nearly in pieces myself.
I was wrong about the source, it's actually an audience recording. They're playing in a French speaking country, so Les Eurockeennes Festival (France, 5 July) is quite likely. But it could be Torhout/Werchter Festival, Belgium (3/4 July).
The BBC doc on Pulp above - the copy I have (which I think came from Ian circa 2002) cuts-off a bit at a crucial part when Russell is describing his departure from Pulp. Just before he talks about ''drinking far too much, smoking far too much...'' there's an interference from another radio station or something. Always bothered me a bit. Will, does the version you've posted have that interference?
As an aside, I'm just back from meeting a friend for a few drinks here in Madrid. We were in a bar which had a big picture frame, plasma TV-sized, full of thumbnails of classic albums. It featured cover-art of everyone from John Lee Hooker to The Jam. Straining to find Pulp I had just given-up when to my surprise the familiar cover of Intro appeared! Felt quite chuffed at that. Not an obvious one to pick but undoubtedly a classic in its' own right :)
Very weird to hear Bob Lind live...finally! Sounds great. And the sound quality is surprisingly good too for an audience recording. Thanks again Freek.

I've checked and my copy doesn't include the interference you mention. It's from an official promo CD so it should be an entirely clean copy.
It's so wrong but I've never been able to find this show. The FEELINGCALLEDLIVE video is amazing but I've always wanted it on CD. For years I've looked but have never been able to locate it in any form other than video.
If anyone out there has this concert in mp3 format could you please post it? I would be forever grateful... seriously!
I would make a list of all my Pulp/Jarvis bootlegs but I'm sure everyone already has what I've got.. but If by chance there are any Nick Cave fans on here let me know, I have more of his bootlegs than I know what to do with. lol
hey Cabeadelica, you're welcome! here's the 1991 gig in La Cigale Paris, don't know if that's Les Inrockuptibles show, I guess so. http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NVWAHTPF
Anyone now a good source to grab any of these in FLACs? Im specifically looking for Glasto 95, but everything in public domain seems to cut off common people because its available on cd now, which is odd.
I try to stay away from torrents, but will use if have to. Any advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
When I was younger, I used to adore listening to the 'Sound City' gigs, specially Sheffield 1993 and Glasgow 1994. I only ever had one track, I think, from 1995. But I was wondering if these gigs have been digitised yet and, if so, where I can get them? I love the energy of the '93 gig, but also love the '94 one for Jarvis' bitter, angry comments...
It's kind of strange that so few of the concerts from the arena tours (DC spring '96, TIH winter '98) were bootlegged. More people, more chances of them being recorded you'd imagine...
I don't have your list of boots with me but Freek, I think on your list there's one each from the '96 and '98 tours (Birmingham and Glasgow?). If you could upload those when you get a chance, that'd be great. Anorexic Beauty was played at some of the Nov '98 shows (not at Glasgow according to Pulpwiki), does anyone have a recording of this?
I have no recording of the february 1996 british shows, but I do have Glasgow 29-11-98. I'll upload that. It is not properly tracked though, it's 3 large mp3's that contain the whole gig.
eamonn, do you happen to have the whole gig 1987 march 3rd? I have already had Heart trouble and Death comes to town and now thanks to you Going back to find her and My first wife. I'd love to hear the whole gig...
Yes I do, I'll upload it over the next day or so. I'm not au fait with uploading on megaupload or any of the hosting sites so I'll post the tracks to the yahoo account. At least they'll always be there.
A pity about the arena shows but the Glasgow '98 one would be great, when you can. According to Pulpwiki it's the Edinburgh arena show that was recorded in '96 (those Scots a bit more generous at the recording...I wonder by any chance, if the source for those, and a lot of 90's alternative-group live audience recordings are from that Scottish bloke (Iain...something?) who ran that bootleg business circa eight-ten years ago). It contains a rare DC-era outing of Lipgloss so would be interesting to listen to, if anyone has that show.
The entire Limit gig is now in the yahoo account in four parts.
The conversation at the start between the two blokes is great as is Jarvis' introduction. Bits of Jarvis' convo seem to be clipped between tracks unfortunately. After Heart Trouble, he apparently said: ''That song was about dying", says Jarvis Cocker. "Actually, this next one's about dying as well."
On iPlayer there is a 1992 BBC Pulp session including 'glass' (YSC)- the radio show it's recently been broadcast on is called 'live music hour' Can anyone rip the songs from the following link? It expires today. Thanks in advance!! http://www.bbc.co.uk/mobile/iplayer/episode/b012h7fn

OK I've ripped it but still haven't listened to it so I'm not sure which session this is. I've take a look tomorrow!

Well the announcer said it was a John Peel session from 1992 but it's actually the Mark Goodier session from May 1992 - Your Sister's Clothes/Live On/She's A Lady/Babies.
I think it's already in wide circulation but I'lll upload it if anybody wants it.
I''d love you to upload it, big chance the sound quality is better than what's circulating (except for Babies and Live on, they were released officially)
OK - That's done. In the Bar Italia 2006 account - and you're right freek - The sound quality is a bit better - I think there's one little pop in YSC though. Nothing too dramatic.

Songs : 1. Pink Glove 2. Lipgloss 3. Do You Remember The First Time? 4. Have You Seen Her Lately? 5. Joyriders 6. Acrylic Afternoons 7. His'n'Hers [incomplete] Note: His'n'Hers was partially broadcast by the TV channel.
Feel free to re-auth the DVD, but please do not recompress it or upload to youtube. Take in account that I've spent a couple of whole days in my life to transfer this and as a result the image looks great. So please have some respect for this recording and the work behind.

A bit off topic, but how exactly do you rip stuff from iPlayer??

I don't know how anybody else does it but I just record the stream using a MiniDisc player then stick that back through the PC using sound editing software. Simples.
Common People live in Sydney 27th July 2011. If anyone comes across the Perth, Sydney and Melbourne gigs as boots - please please post! Eternally grateful 4EVA!
