He prefers to remain anonymous, and told me this is a copy of the soundboard master._****_As received, I only needed to split and tag the tracks, normalize, apply fades, and remove dead spots. No compression or noise reduction was used, no small animals harmed._** **_ _** **_Vanessa not only thanks the 40 Watt, but also R.E.M. -- the reason for which is not evident, since REMTimeline has the band in N.Y. state in this part of July, and they played no known gigs on 23 July. _** **_ _** **_I like this recording a bit better than the 1983 soundboard I shared last week. Vanessa's voice is more prominent in the mix, and the band sounds as tight as ever. Please enjoy._** ** ** **FLAC** ** ** **MP3@320** **** https://dbs-repercussion.blogspot.com/2026/02/pylon-1988-07-23-athens-ga-sbd-m1.html
