Roger Hodgson - 2012-07-18 - Lucca, IT (FM/FLAC)


(FM broadcast FLAC)

Lucca Summer Festival 
Piazza Napoleone 
Lucca, Italy 
18 July 2012 
Originally broadcast on Radio2 RAI 
FM remaster 

Lineage (FM > HD > web) 
ITT HiFi4060 Tuner > Audacity 2.0 via C-Media CMI8738/C3DX soundcard > 44100hz/16bit flac's (level 8) > webtorrenting 

Then, the additional lineage: 

TLH > Guitar Tracks Pro 3.0 > SB X-FI Platinum > Sony Sound Forge 8.0 > Magix Audio Cleaning Lab > TLH > FLAC 

The remaster: 
About 19 minutes of DJ banter ( yes, some music too, because the DJ talks over it), intros and other talking was removed from the original recording. 2 or 3 very brief sections of DJ banter remain. 
25 seconds of clean, uninterupted applause was taken from 2 other sources, overdubbed and carefully added to the original with cross fading ( slow in/slow out ). Using Sony Sound Forge 8.0, I blended the channels slighty and raised the volume a little.I noticed some brief dropouts on the original, some were lost in editing but I made no effort to fix the others. I resisted changing the pitch of the recording, even though I think Roger's voice sounds a bit "off ", it must have been the water in Lucca, but my knob twirling, while creating very interesting versions of this concert, yielded no fulfilling results, other than making Roger sound even more feminine and "mousy". Maybe next time I should turn the knobs the other way.... 
This ( hopefully ) creates a more comfortable recording to listen to, rather than have the intrusion of the DJ ( a woman who clearly enjoys the sound of her own voice, even more than Roger ! ). The clean applause was taken from concerts on the NAB / NAV lists, but as far as I know, only the artist performances themselves are banned. Besides this controversy, I freely choose to be the only one harmed by the secret of knowing which shows they are. I can only say this; one of the recordings is from my own master ( CA-11 cards > DR-2d ), the clapping is mostly the sound made by my own hands, the same hands which are giving you 19 minutes of your life every time you hear the remaster....... 
Later, after completing a Pink Floyd SBD/AUD Quad Surround Sound "matrix" from 1977, I will share a seperate recording containing the 19 minutes extant, a glorious example of overindulgence which I will dedicate to RAI DJ's & executives, liars and bullshit artists worldwide !!

notes
Fantastic show in Belgium. Due to the reports of the new metal detectors in Belgium, I was hesitant to tape. But I did in the end, without the pre-amp (got the M10 with some luck). Axl sounded great and the band was in excellent shape too.

Not my best recording but enjoyable none the less. A few small glitches during Sin City, I accidentaly switched on the hi sensivity option of the mics.

notes by the taper
I first saw Mark Knopfler in 2005. The year after, I went to see Mark Knopfler and Emmylou Harris together with a friend from my hometown. On our way down to the show in Oslo I told him about the On Every Planet recording, and said I would love to find out one day if that really was from Oslo. My friend became pretty quite, and then he said he was quite sure he recorded that show in Oslo in 1992 with Dire Straits. When we got back from the MK & EH show in Oslo, which I also recorded, it didn´t take my friend long to find the old cassette. So, here is the confirmation that On Every Planet, actually is from Oslo 1992. Enjoy it. The sound is not that good, but the recording includes Money For Nothing which is not on the On Every Planet recording.
