Well, I'm finally getting around to digitizing my 700+ cassettes (at my wife's insistence--she wants them out of the house), so I'm going to start posting some goodies here. I taped many a show in the Toronto area from the late '80's to the late '90's, and also recorded a lot of radio broadcasts, mostly from CFNY, 102.1 in Toronto. Hope you stumble across something you like, or even a show you were at!


Concert for Amnesty International, Giants Stadium, East Rutherford NJ, June 15, 1986 FM broadcast

The last show of a benefit tour for Amnesty International, which was broadcast live on the day. I didn't tape the whole thing, just the bands I was interested in at the time. The older me regrets not getting the Miles Davis set, but someone else has posted that here on DIME, and I thank them for that. These are all the sets I did record, with the exception of Bryan Adams, who is not tradeable here. All are in separate folders with separate checksums, so you can just grab the bands you want if you don't want the whole thing. As far as I can tell, none of this has ever been officially released.
