CAN 1975-01-29 Bataclan, Paris, France (reseed) CAN 1975-01-29 (jan 29, 1975) Bataclan Paris, France "FUTURE DAYS" - tour source: SBD recording lineage: Sony UX100 (Chrome) -> Tascam 464 -> Protools -> AIFF -> FLAC No compression or noise reduction used at all note: this is the first digitisation of this cassette which came from a trader in the early 90's. It has been in storage since 1995 and just rediscovered. Its nowhere near the fidelity of the '73 Edinburgh show which I seeded recently but of historial interest to all of those who like Can in this initial post Damo period and before they had dedicated vocalists again. Michael Karoli features on vocals here and there but its mostly instrumentals with some themes from 'Soon over Babluma'. I am going by the date on the cassette but stating that I notice that it doesn't correlate with any of the dates on the excellent Can resource at http://all-blues.de/music/kraut/canlive.htm The song lengths, however, almost match the listings for the Bataclan 1975-01-29 performance. Hence it could be that this recorded set could be that one but unless someone can confirm empirically with a copy of the 29th Jan show I am staying with the date that came with the tape. In regards its audio qualities it is a reasonable mixing desk recording but possibly because of low levels in previous transfers it has a slightly muffled quality here and there plus a layer of hiss. The original cassette speed was about 5% too fast so that was attended to with the pitch control on the Tascam and the overall stereo levels were volume boosted to minimise noise. There is not much in the way of cymbals, its quite a dry recording but I'd welcome someone having a go at remastering it unless a lower generation copy could be upped. As with other recent ups I haven't seen this recording on DIME during the time I've been on here nor through searches. However it may well have made an appearance before from another source. Its a funky show so in any case please enjoy! Digitised from the ht cassette archive by happytrader, April 2010 setlist: cd1 72:10 1. Chain Reaction 11:57 2. Splash > Bel Air 14:07 3.
