notes
This is a brand new transfer direct to cd-r from the metal cassette masters and it comes to us courtesy of BF. This show is well-known because Tony Levin collapsed a short time after the concert due to illness. The next night's concert at the Dallas Starplex was cancelled. This Houston gig is a very tight performance by the band and a fine recording as well.

I got this concert directly from the taper about 18 years ago. I was not there but was assured by the taper that this tape contains the whole performance. Since I wasn't at the show, I don't have any amusing or amazing stories to tell, so I'll give you a brief rundown of the recording, good points and bad.

First, the good points:
1) As mentioned above, this recording is complete.
2) There is virtually NO talking, shrieking, whistling or any other audience bullshit on this recording. The taper was surrounded by very polite, quiet, respectful audience members who were there for the music and not to hear themselves talk.
3) There is no distortion present. There are no speed problems or any other serious faults to prevent you from enjoying this show.
4) This is a very clear recording. The vocals & instruments come through very clearly and distinctly. I think that the taper was fairly close to the stage when making this recording.

Second, the bad (not very bad at all) points:
1) There is a little bit of hiss. Not bad, but you'll hear it from time to time.
2) This is probably the worst point about the recording: the right channel's strength is variable. The right channel is weak for 90% of And You And I and then comes back strongly. This occurs on other songs as well. I have no idea what was going on but I suspect that there was a short or a loose connection somewhere in the mic circuitry. The right channel never vanishes totally but it is weak in several songs. This is basically why I downgraded it to 8.5. When both channels are pumping, it's a 9 to 9.5 solidly. Fixing this problem is beyond my  capabilities. Perhaps some audio wizard out in Dime land can fix this for us all. If anyone is interested in doing so, you have my complete and utter permission to knock yourself(ves) out. I could've used a splitter to record the left channel only but didn't want to create a mono recording, so I left the problem alone. If you can help, please do!!! (How I wish that the taper would've used something like a Sony or Aiwa with an external stereo tie mic instead of a Radio Shack setup but what can you do ?????).

So there you have it. This is the raw recording that I've had lo these many years. I changed NOTHING about this recording except to track it and to remove overly-long stretches of applause and screaming between songs. No music is missing. This show fits on 2 80 min. CDs. CD 1 = Tracks 1 - 14. CD 2 = Tracks 15 - 29. The song titles become more understandable if you have a copy of the legit ABWH tape lying  around so you can follow along with that setlist. That's about all that I can think of to say, so let's wrap this up.

This show was still early in the tour (the fourth show), and finds the band experimenting with setlist and sound effects. This may be the only show with the Firebird Suite, which drops right into the opening jam of Close To the Edge.

They were also experimenting with quadrophonic sound, with stacks of speakers on the lawn handling those effects like at old-style "azimuth coordinator" Floyd shows.

We moved to the lawn for the second set to better capture the quad effects, and found a nice spot near one of the speaker stacks. During Themes especially you can hear the sound moving in and out of the lawn speakers.

This is an accurate recording of how it sounded to the audience on the night. 

The Royal Albert Hall is not the best for a rock concert sound, also a lot of people around clicking cameras, which can be heard on the quieter parts of the recording, but doesn't sound too bad considering. The show/performance was excellent, surely Rick must release a DVD of this. Please remember to support the artists and buy their music.

There's another version of this show floating around with lineage "source/lineage: soundboard > unknown gen tape > unknown gen cdr > flac FLAC: 638 MB, 2cdr", upon spectral analysis it appears to be sourced from my conversion, trimmed down to fit on 2 discs, and noise reduction overapplied to make it sound and test as lossy. This is the original conversion, with no noise reduction applied. There is some tape hiss, but it sounds much clearer than the version circulating.

Another one from the RLR vaults. Radio Hallam has been active in recording gigs in the Sheffield area since more than 35 years. Kudos to them! This one come from the "1984" tour in the fall of 1981. I was somehow in trouble with the exact date of this show since the tour programme lists Sheffield from September 24th. But then I realised that in september Wakeman and band were touring South America, so possibly the whole european tour must have been postponed to november.

Apart from that, the show is not complete but I haven´t seen a better copy circulating, so here it is. If anyone has a more complete show, you are more than welcome to share it. This is a vintage recording with quite a lot of hiss, but still enjoyable in my opinion.
