When the Amnesty tour was announced, I quickly saw how much money I could make to allow to see some shows. At the end I went to three: the two Paris ones and in Torino. I have good memories of the event, although I was not really into Tracy Chapman and Springsteen. But Paris was really special because as 'local' singer they selected my favourite, Michel Jonasz (check him out, if you can, he is an amazing musician and singer!). From the bunch of masters I've selected the second performance by Sting. I liked the energy and the setlist, and I'm sure many of you will enjoy this performance, from the times he was REALLY good. This time I really wanted to deliver you the rough thing. I just left the tape rolling and captured it on hard disk. No edit, no re-eq, no fades. the show begins brutally as my master. It's up to you to edit it to your likings. - metro_cubo (ldb) length expanded size cdr WAVE probs filename 9:44.51 103137596 --- -- -xx Sting 880905 Paris01.flac 6:08.45 65021084 --- -- -xx Sting 880905 Paris02.flac 8:04.36 85462316 --- -- -xx Sting 880905 Paris03.flac 4:36.13 48717020 --- -- -xx Sting 880905 Paris04.flac 8:59.57 95213708 --- -- -xx Sting 880905 Paris05.flac 5:21.24 56680892 --- -- -xx Sting 880905 Paris06.flac 2:49.60 29952764 --- -- -xx Sting 880905 Paris07.flac 8:48.20 93186284 --- -- -xx Sting 880905 Paris08.flac 4:09.64 44074396 -b- -- -xx Sting 880905 Paris09.flac 58:42.70 621446060 B (totals for 9 files, 0.5922 overall compression ratio)
