Rec. Info:
1st gen. audience tape, most likely done by the same person who taped the Koeln gig a day before. So this would be Vivanco EM 360 -> Sony WMD6 sourced.
This cassette -> playback on Harman Kardon CD491 -> ZoomH2 (at WAV 16/44) -> Audacity (edit/remaster) -> WAV 16/44 -> TLH8-> FLAC -> DIME -> YOUR EARS AND MIND...
The recording of this show is fabulous! Except for a small part, where the volume are lowered for unknown reason (at end of track 10 into 11), there's nothing to
complain about. I highly recommend this show as a mandatory DL, if you love the band, or even the direction of sound! This is not even listed on their livegigs page.
Could've been better? Thank you, DIMENEW, and most grateful thanks to the original taper. You did a damn good job!!!! This is fucking great!

Could've been better listening? No, I was there! Woah, at last a live show from my second living room way back 88-91...And, the icing on the cake...one of my absolute
favourite bands those daze. Well, no tix stub included here for the proof, as there only stamps on the hand. Glory days of Forum Enger. One band 10 D-Marks, 2 Bands 12 D-Marks.
And only a 40 km ride one way. Live music every weekend, located the cellar of a former big butchery! (Sorry, no slaughterhouse...like some other places named here in Germany).
Quote Chris Cornell: "You make a lot of noise for a small town". Indeed. Enger is located close to Bielefeld, the bigger city. But the team of Forum always got the NEW, EXCITING
bands those days. NIRVANA played there, too. I witnessed that. But don't ask for tapes about that. I really enjoyed what this fantastic band offered this evening, led me do some
more shows later (I remember Pinkpop 1992 in the pouring rain), with their mindblowing BIGMOTORFINGER album. After that, the real magic was gone. They morphed into some kind of
moneymaking act for the musicindustry.
This show is lightyears before that "Squeezing the Lemon"... and offers some very entertaining interludes as well. Funny thing, that (in 1989) Chris asked the crowd if they can
understand english...Whoops! Not 45...Guess it was just a surprise "landing" in the middle of nowhere and find a packed frenzeed crowd, who know a lot about their music and were
really ready to rock! So was I, because it was not only just a show, I went there because SOUNDGARDEN was playing! Maybe one of the 3-4 best shows I ever attended there.
ENJOY THIS! SPACEBANDIT.
