Notes: ************mike's note - i trimmed one second of applause off the beginning of the 1st track and one second of applause off the end of the last track so that i could burn this to one cdr. No music was affected *************** The Kinks Detroit Michigan, U.S.A. Cobo Arena 10 August 1979 This is an edit of this torrent - Torrent #198945 the Kinks- Cobo Arena, Detroit, Michigan 1979/ August/ 10- almost complete clean low gen. sbd (with sound sample) This is an excellent recording of this warmly-received Kinks show, which was marred only by the end of "You really got me" being cut (tape flip at 45 min). I took a punt on the end of "All Day and all of the night" sounding very similar (it's a virtual rewrite of the other song), and tried plonking the last few bars onto the point when it cuts, and got a great result first time! I just had to trim a little more off to match the edit point, and you can't even hear the join now! I trimmed a bit of crowd noise from the last track to bring the total time under 80 minutes, and hey! It's a better listen (if slightly faked). 1. Life on the Road 7:17 2. Permanent Wave 6:02 3.

Orignal Seeder's comments: performance quality: B+ to A-, pretty good recording quality: close to an A, nice crispy low gen. sbd source: 1st gen. (so I'm told, I believe it) sbd tape mastered on TDK D (?), my copy is on TDK-SA. runtime: 79:52 (just fits on 80 min. CD.) setlist: (1st song of the concert is missing from this recording- Sleepwalker) I just checked the wikipedia's Kinkology which was good enough to list the locations of the only live official Kinks recording I am aware of and was listed for this tour, "one for the road", (that's a good live disc) and it has a bunch from Providence and a few other locales in N.Y. and Mass. but none from this concert. So even though I was afraid this might have to be a chopped liver upload, looks like the only song you don't get in here is the first one which isn't in my recording. This one is a Celtic fan's tribute to the Detroit Pistons, who are still clearly one of the best teams in the NBA, and to a city that (much like Boston) likes to rock. (many of my favorite artists like both Boston and Detroit as among their favorite places to rock out in (Robert Plant, Jimmy Page, J.Geils Band and David Bowie come to mind there among others) and the Kinks like Detroit too. It is their kind of town (I don't mean that in any kind of a bad way). The Kinks like to rock out. This is the "Low Budget" tour, a couple of weeks after that album (a.k.a. vinyl as in played on a "turntable") was released. I don't know if shopkin likes Kinks of this period, but this is partly for his 2 fine posts of the Kinks in Boston. I don't have alot of Kinks (musical kind), but a couple worth sharing. This one has a rarity for a glasnostrd19 upload. It's called a setlist. Pretty good one here, and a nice rock out Kinks show. No question which category this goes in. Hasn't been, for what, about 43 years is it now? (more like close to 29 years since this show). I don't have much in low gen. sbd of bands this familiar, but this one just popped up. The guy said he only had one other sbd he recorded- George Benson in Phila. 79. I did get that, but the music in that is sap city. The music in this is rock city, so I'm going with this to help calm some peeved off Piston rods, celebrate a Celtic win in the 2008 NBA East Conference finals (the first for both Garnett and team captain Paul Pierce) that was made special because, honestly, I thought if anyone was going to knock off the Celtics of 2008, it would be Detroit. Team records aside, I thought they had the deeper and more experienced team, maybe the best team in the whole NBA. Maybe I'm stretching it a bit, but somehow I see some parts of this show that may be (indirectly) relevant (sortakinda) to what was a very good series between two cities that like to rock. I don't have much from Detroit, but this is one I think folks will want to hear no matter where from or whose teams they root for (if any). Do not sell this recording. Trade freely and losslessly.
