The Police 49th Annual Grammy Awards Los Angeles, CA Staples Center 11 February 2007 Radio Dimensione Suono ("RDS") italian live broadcast Length: 5 Min Source: FM Quality: 9.5 Notes: Compressed Source Feed Lineage: Sony ST-JX35L AM/FM Tuner > Yamaha A-560 amplifier > Nomad Jukebox 3 (Line In) > Audition (cuts) > FLAC (Level 8 w/ Verify) Taper: Carlo Bolchini 1) Roxanne RDS was the only authorized italian radio to broadcast live the Grammy Awards ceremony. Their speakers unfortunately talk over the beginning, so you can't hear the "We're the Police and we're back!" shout by Sting. I've left also some banter at the end, if you can understand italian it is related to the Police comeback. The reception of the signal wasn't perfect so there are some statics. The music sounds compressed to me, so I think they were broadcasting some compressed satellite feed (the audio from a TV sat feed). You can see this also from the frequency analysis, but this was a "true" FM capture. No speed correction, no eq, no noise reduction.
