Out of Control Tour
The Clash go Back to Basics - European Tour
cdr - edited tape - slight upgrade - Sound 4 - 74min - bc/m - 23 tracks
cdr - good sound full gig - Sound 4 - 85min - low? - 27 tracks
A very low gen tape with bootleggers artwork and bootleggers edits [73.40]. This is a minor upgrade on the full show which is quite good as well, maybe only a coupe of copies less.
The tracks lost on the better one are Safe European Home, Police and Thieves, Three Card Trick and English Civil War, Janie Jones has an inferior sound also.
A nice sounding show with a lot of similarity to many of the other audience 84 shows. Great sound within the limitations, nice width with pretty good acoustics/clarity. Nice mix, bass, guitars, vocals, and drums. This one is slightly better than most.

Brixton review 8th?
The Academy in London's Brixton is a 30's cinema with an air of shaby elegance. Classical greek statues... after a few numbers (Strummer) "i'm prepared to kill sonmeone..."

| this gig never took place. the band were scheduled to play Espace Ballad on the 23rd Feb. but this had to be re-sheduled to March 1st as a national lorry drivers strike blocked the trucks carrying the gear at Calais. Tickets stubs however stiff carry the 23rd date for a price of 80F which would have been about £6 at the time. | ||
