The Cramps
Volksbildungsheim, Frankfurt, Germany
April - 17 - 1986






Contrast clause: This upload here is a matrix of 2 different audience recordings from the same show:


1. Vinyl Bootleg "Kizmiaz" uploaded to dime in 2012 by tantxu and still on dime under http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=405502

Description from this upload:

**************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

Got this one on a CD trade some time ago.
It's from a 2LP Vinyl, I edited it, normalizing and removing some hiss and crackle. Still has some, but it's a must have IMHO.

**************************************************************************************************************************************************************************


2. a master recording by MILAVALENTI uploaded by me as 1st gen tape in 2013 (not on dime anymore)

Rec. Info: SONY WM-D 6 with OKM 01 Headmicrophones


Info from previous upload:

**************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

1st gen aud cassette copied in the 80s / 1 st gen cass transfer via Onkyo tapedeck TA-2330 -> Magix Music Cleaning Lab (edit/remaster) -> FLAC -> DIME
The sound is very good especially after some equalizing (vg+). Audience noise was calmed down between songs.

This recording was made by a friend and I was also attending the show. The bootleg has a better sound but this recording is made "in the crowd" and you can really
almost grab the excitement. It's a great recording and even if you have the "Kizmiaz" you should download and experience it

Processing of Matrix:
MILAVALENTI master tape -> transfer via Onkyo tapedeck TA-2330 -> Magix Cleaning Lab -> addition of bootleg source -> edit/remaster -> flac -> DIME




So now instead of the 1st gen tape I had the master tape.
But still the bootleg source is the better one as the sound is coming much more direct. He had obviously a better position as MILAVALENTI who was standing quite far away from the stage.
The combination of the 2 sources adds more treble and gives a great live sound.
The problem with the bootleg source is that the longer the recording goes the speed is getting slower. And to such an extent that during Sunglasses After Dark there is a massive distortion.
So I calmed down this section of the bootleg and made some speed corrections as far as possible.
The bootleg has a longer intro whereas the other recording has some more audience sections and the start of track 6 is missing at the botleg source.
All in all it's now a more complete show and the concert itself is great anyway. So you should not miss to download it.
A copy of the ticket stub is attached. Also I have attached some nice artwork which I found in the web.
