Chicago: Paris 1973 (FM) FLAC

Palais des Sports, Porte de Versailles
Paris, France
Sept. 16, 1973
Paris Radio Broadcast

TheCommish notes: Here's a nice FM show of Chicago back in '73. Thanks to fellow DIME member michaelmee for sharing this one back in March 2006.
In michaelmee's torrent, "Something In This City Changes People" and "Hollywood" were included in the same track. For this torrent, I decoded the original FLAC via TLH, split the track using CD Wave, and then re-coded the two new WAV files to FLAC via TLH (SB-aligned). I then renamed the FLAC files so that they match the setlist below.
But aside from renaming the FLAC files, I did not make any alterations to the original FLAC files (except for former track 03, which is now tracks 03 and 04).
This one was requested by mimaal2. Enjoy!

01. Announcer
02. Devil's Sweet
03. Something In This City Changes People
04. Hollywood
05. Just You 'n Me
06. Beginnings
07. Aire
08. Feelin' Stronger Every Day
09. A Hit By Varese
Running time: 52:47

Chris Pinnick guitar

Pre-FM vinyl 2 record set that I bought in a used record store, for $5.00, the DJ cue sheet was missing. Each disc was treated with Pfan-Stat No. SA-14, and the Discwasher Zerostat Positive Ion Gun prior to play. They where played on a Sony PS-LX300H turntable to a Sony RCD-W500C CD Recorder using the Super Bit Mapping function. The resulting CD-R was ripped with Exact Audio Copy. The waves were imported to Goldwave V.5.04 for pop/click fix, track separation, and fade in out as needed.I only use 1 passive run of Goldwaves pop/click fix, since aggressive noise reduction can impair sound quality. The waves were then converted to flac level 8 with Traders Little Helper aligning all sector boundaries.
I removed all the commercials. I faded in on the intro voice over, and faded out on the end credits due to skips in the record. These were the only skips. I included a scan of the label for record one side one.
A great show with all the live favorites and a cover of The Spencer Davis Group's Gimme Some Lovin which Chicago has never recorded. There are a few vinyl pops but not enough to take away from your listening pleasure, so enjoy !

Chicago: Lucca Summer Festival 2008 (FM Source) FLAC

Saturday 26th July 2008, 21:35 hours
Piazza Napoleone, Lucca (Tuscany, Italy)

Robert Lamm - keyboards and Vocals
Lee Loughnane - trumpet and Vocals
Bill Champin - keyboards, vocals and Guitar
Keith Howland - guitar and vocals
Nick Lane - trombone
Jason Sheff - bass and Vocals
Tris Imboden - drums and Harmonica
Ray Herman - saxophones

WARNINGS: 1- as in italian radio customs, the DJ speaks a lot in-between songs. His purpose is to translate in italian what the musicians say, the introductions to every song and the history of the band. It may gets VERY annoying, thus we might consider this recording only for completists. But the songs, the actual music, are usaully not spoken over. Or you could think that it's so damn exotic having someone speaking in an unknown language in your boot!
2- the concert faded out to give space to night-time radio news. I don't know if other tracks have been played.
Live FM radio broadcast by "I Concerti di Radio1", Radio Uno RAI [first channel of italian national radio], from an open air show. Piazza Napoleone is one of Lucca main city squares. Trackmarking the "Ballet for a Girl in Buchannon" suite (tracks 04-10) was a real nightmare, it took me more than an hour. And more than a month to be able to seed it.
