A very important residency. I was offered a Japanese bootleg boxset once at the Olympia record fair, London with all shows soundboards. Stupidly I walked away from it and I have kicked myself ever since. This is a way of hearing what I turned down.
There was a guy called Sukwoon Snoh (hope that's correct) who posted here and put together that box set. I expect that's what you were offered at the Olympia record fair. I have that box set and it's what I mostly used for the remastered versions.
He was Sukwoon Noh mate. Abbreviated to Snoh. Early internetter. Disappeared without trace(almost). Sure he was from New York
I was pretty close then. Apologies to Sukwoon.
I stand corrected(in my orthopedic shoes)
Snoh was from Tenafly, New Jersey.
That's akin to saying Heston's from Newcastle.

Forces have been looting
My humanity
Curfews have been curbing
The end of liberty
We're the flowers in the dustbin...
No fuchsias for you.
I contacted Snoh a couple of years back. He was doing fine, he had just moved on from being a member here. I think it was mostly down to a lot of the original posters having left too.

That's good to know. Exchanged a few emails with him back in the day when he was extremely helpful in getting me started on the trading front. Just a really lovely guy.
Yeah, Snoh was a gent, massively helpful with me, too, all those years ago - I traded CDRs with him and he was always generous sending me far more than I could provide for him. I think the first thing I contacted him about was the 101ers Derby 1975 gig - I couldn't believe such a tape existed, but he had tons and tons of shows.
And he made several neat custom compilations to commemorate 'Satch's forums' members totals hittng certain milestones.
Not forgetting greeting cards, and at least one t-shirt design which he sold to raise funds for the Strummerville charity. I've still got them all.
Hello out there, Snoh!

I recall getting the new jersey 1982 vcd from him and hippodrome '81 bootleg in Santa snoh's giveaway when I was a teenager lol
Seeing the Clash in New York twice, it was special. I'd seen them elsewhere but they had a special affiliation with New York. I'd like to hear from people who saw them at Bond's and their feelings/impressions of seeing the only band that matter at their artistic peak (my opinion).
I had cable radio and a dual head Pioneer double tape cassette deck. I recorded one of the Bonds shows that was broadcast over the radio from cable radio straight to the tape deck and onto a 90 min Maxcell XL II tape. Maxcell was considered better than Memorex or TDK, with XL II being their best at the time. It must have been a station out of Philly - YSP or MMR not sure which - I don't see how it could have been out of New York, but I could be wrong. If I had to guess I'd say it was in the summer of '82. Anyhow, maybe 30-years ago I made a trade with a guy possibly named Jeff Dove for his '76 Roundhouse, an '84 tape (Five Alive?) and Barbarella's in exchange for the Bonds tape plus two tapes I had from Eddie Hazel's Funkadelic shows in Philly & NYC. Jeff's stuff was top notch, but he was hard to trade with since he already had so much. At some point, probably in the late 90's, building off my trades with Jeff and a few others, I started steady swapping with Sukwoon out of NY & another guy, possibly named Guisseppe, from Italy, who had a number of tapes from their European shows. I would make these amateurish DIY B&W collage styled covers for the tape box. Sukwoon was very easy to trade with and I assume many of the tapes I received from Guisseppe/Italy made their way all over by way of Sukwoon's generosity.
