Yeah. I’d never bother buying it. The boot has great sound quality already and I almost never listen to it because Shibuya is right there being infinitely better.Marky Dread wrote: ↑11 May 2019, 9:59pmWhy when it's been bootlegged so many times and it's such a weak performance.

Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

Re: The Clash observations thread.
Remember when Shibuya was already one of the all time best boots and then the last encore surfaced which made a nuts concert even more nuts?
Also, I’m baffled by Kory’s interest in the Sun Plaza show.

Yeah that was one of the all-time best updates. And Kory is clearly crazy.

Re: The Clash observations thread.
I would like to ask you, what is better in a bootleg the quality of the concert or the quality of the recording? What percentage? 70-30, 80-20, 60-40, 50-50, 40-60, ....? This leads to different opinions.
Music is the only thing that matters
