Men Without Hats: Edmonton 1984 (Soundboard) FLAC

men-without-hats-safety-dance-debb2c-80s-1015x1024
Edmonton, Alberta, Canada - August 27, 1984
Source: soundboard > [ probably recorded to cassette ] > CDR > extracted through iTunes > you!
Sound quality: A-

1. Intro. tape / Freeways
2. Antarctica
3. Ban the Game
4. Living in China
5. I Know Their Name
6. Messiahs Die Young
7. Ideas For Walls
8. Eurotheme
9. Things in My Life
10. I Like
11. The Safety Dance
12. I Got the Message
13. Where Do the Boys Go?
14. Editions of You [Roxy Music cover]
15. Modern(e) Dancing (fast version)

Most of these have circulated in mp3 form, but I think that lossless versions are pretty scarce.
Regarding this recording - this is most certainly taken from the soundboard, and the overall sound quality is excellent. Unfortunately somebody has edited most of the crowd noise from between each song, and on a couple of tracks the last 1-2 seconds of music has also been lost. This is not a glitch, it is this way on my disc as well. Regardless, this is a great recording from the band's tour in support of their second album, "Folk of the '80s (Part III)".

Another one? Unbelievable. This is what makes Quality Bootz the best in the biz. Thank you for this. I have been on a real 80's new wave kick lately.

A Flock of Seagulls has a new album out. It is nothing more than a live album but it does have one new composition on it. It turns out it is only available as a MP3 download on Amazon (that I can find). Not sure I can spend the money on that.

Apparently everyone that had hits back in the 80s was bootlegged! Another one for the collection!

Thanks, Dave and keep 'em coming!
