Welcome to my place !

Here you can listen to some 70's/80's/90's live music. As a fan of new-wave music with a particular love towards The B-52's, I'm trying to collect and upload every B's live recording from every eras, from 1978 to nowadays.

I upload some of my original music too, with some covers of my favourite artists...

I was previously known as Frank Reich

    This is either my tape or my friend Mark's tape. Great show better than the film. I also saw and taped September 4. I think they played on September 3 as well at the Greek but archives show they were in Santa Barbara, but I think that show was cancelled and Sept 3 was added. A long time a go so I could be wrong.

    @@happymondays3904 We are very few indeed (converting my friends to the Mondays & 808 State, one at a time lmao), but if you leave the cult of Joy Division, The Smiths & Oasis aside; France never really bothered with the Manc music scene, total shame if you ask me... There was some interest in the early/mid 90s when magazine Les Inrockuptibles was at the forefront but it died soon enough when Britpop came round... But then again, and speaking as a french myself, french people really have shit music tastes

    hi there! i am kinda just an onlooker, but i found this channel today and i just wanna say thank you for somehow finding this show and uploading it here on youtube. i’m a “more recent” fan of the b-52s (in quotes because i’ve always liked their stuff but never got really interested in them until this year), and i try to consume as much content from them as i can because of how “undocumented” they are than other bands, and i FUCK with people who try and document bands like that

  • @Blank_Frank
    @Blank_FrankАй бұрын

    Well ! Thank you for listening. I agree that there's not much audio recordings from the golden era of the band, most of them are already uploaded on youtube. It's getting harder to find "new" stuff (as in, rare bootlegs or forgotten concert tapes to digitize) but I'm always on the lookout. For me it was important to upload this stuff since they're my favourite band and I always loved collecting bootlegs, so it made sense to upload everything I can find of them (that wasn't already uploaded on yt)

    There was a real sentimental version of phyco killer I put on tape back in 88, varry emotional. It was an acoustic guitar, an acoustic bass a set of mini drums and a violin and the end of the song just faded away at the end. My eyes swelled up with tears. BRILLIANT! I hope somebody finds a copy of it and puts it up. I been looking for it for 9 years. I can't find it.

    J'ai eu le plaisir et le privilège de le rencontrer (à ma demande) chez lui vers 1986... Pour lui faire écouter mes bandes... Il m'a fait écouter les siennes aussi... Un mec d'une extrême gentillesse. J'avais vu Taxi-Girl en 1982 à Marignane. Un drame, que ce groupe ait sombré si vite.

    This is the earliest performance I'm aware of for Private Idaho. I'm curious about when they penned the song, I know they didn't perform it for the 1978-May-28 shows. Boots from late 1978 and early 1979 are also few and far between, if they exist.

    I once said that this sounded a bit slow and out of tune. Well, here's a better analysis. In short, only one song that I can tell is out of tune and slow here, possibly due to tape recording (or the playback for the transfer) being slower. And the one that's off-kilter is "Moon." All the others are close enough to not bother. I was tuning my guitar to the notes played here, and I was using my guitar tuner to tell me what Hz frequency they're in. "Moon" is in 426, when the previous song "Lava" (using the same tuning and probably the same guitar) was in 437. Also, "Moon" sounds a bit too slow compared to the album version. Ricky did switch guitars out a lot in shows, but this just seems weird. The album version of Moon is in 452, and if you compare 426 to 452, that's about a whole note of difference. Lava is also in 444 or 445, so it's lower here in 437, but it's not a dramatic difference. And again, Lava and Moon both use the same tuning, but in different frequencies on the album.

  • @101Volts
    @101VoltsАй бұрын

    I'm a bit off here, the album version of Moon is in 453 HZ. That's the only correction I'm making here.
