Disc 2 tracks 6-9 are bonus tracks recorded from the European leg of the 1985 tour. They actually sound better (clearer) than the full Chile show

Sting: East Rutherford 1994 (Ex FM) FLAC

26/02/1994 ??? - East Rutherford, Meadowlands Arena - Radio broadcast
Lineage: Wav -- Fairstars Audio Converter (FLAC level 8) for you
Normally it's a straight copy from an original bootleg. The trader whom has sent to me only has real bootleg. I've also checked one track with Cool Edit Pro 2 and the frequence is really healthy.
STING in Meadowlands :
Quality: A+
Running time: 76'
Artwork: no
OU Notes: Excellent audio quality, excellent performance. They really make something new happen with the songs of Sting. It's the end of the tour but they aren't tired, they are questionning the music, returning it, playing like they don't play usually, making new shapes with it... Well, that night they played freely. Roxanne is excellent. Bring on is magic. "She's too good" and "Nothing about me" are for the first time during the TST tour absolutely perfectly made. Melissa Etheridge IS the voice Every breath you take needed. You have to grab it.

Tracklist :
01 - If I ever lose my faith in you
02 - Heavy Cloud, No Rain
03 - A Day in the life
04 - Fields of gold
05 - Synchronicity II
06 - Every little thing she does is magic
07 - Roxanne (/Consider me gone)
08 - Shape of my heart
09 - Englishman in New-York
10 - King of Pain (/ Demolition man)
11 - Bring on the night
12 - She's too good for me
13 - Nothin but me
14 - Every breath you take (w/ Melissa Etheridge - really sensual)
15 - Fragile

or JAZZ DOOR (JD 1228)*

RELEASED: FEBRUARY 1991 (92?), ITALY
http://www.hk-cciaa.bz.it/servizi/RI/vis-d.php?nrea=120064
*Those CDs are almost certainly bootleg.

Remarks: In July 1987 Sting interrupted the recording sessions for the album Nothing Like The Sun and travelled to Italy to perform at the "Umbria Jazz 87 Festival" together with Gil Evans and his band on 11-07-1987. This became one of Sting's most special performances. Besides jazzy versions of his own songs also various cover versions were performed, including two compositions by Jimi Hendrix (Up From The Skies and Little Wing).
On March 20, 1988 Gil Evans died at the age of 75 after complications during an operation in Mexico. This was about eight months after the show in Perugia.
The quality of this recording is excellent (a very clear soundboard recording).

George Lewis - tenor trombone

Sting: "I met Gil Evans one night in Ronnie Scott's club in London. He'd been a hero of mine since I was fifteen. He reminded me of one of those wise elders from Star Trek who are the only survivors of a planet after some holocaust, the sole guardians of all the knowledge of their race. I went backstage after the show and introduce myself and was amazed and flattered that he ever heard of me. He told me he liked the bass line of Walking On The Moon. I went home on cloud nine. I sang with his band a couple of years later in a little club in Greenwich Village called Sweet Basil. His fifteen-piece band was crammed onto the tiny stage so there was no room for me. So, I sang on the floor, squashed between two tables. One day I aspire to the stage. Anyway, we did three songs together. One by Tony Williams, called There Comes A Time, and two songs by Jimi Hendrix that Gil has performed for years, Little Wing and Up From The Skies" (lyric-book Nothing Like The Sun).

Sting: "We had a great time, so I said, 'Why don't you come down to Montserrat and we'll work out a set?' He came down to Montserrat where we were recording, and sat in on a session and gave me a few hints about arranging. It was really cool, and we got a set together of an hour's worth of material. [...] He arranged five of my songs. We did Little Wing. He's just a great guy to have around. I was having a problem with one song, I was concentrating on one note that I didn't think was right, and he said, 'Come outside.' He said, 'It's not the note you think it is, it's the note before. If you get that one right, then this one will carry on.' 'I don't think so, Gil.' 'Try it.' He was right. Of course, he knows his shit. He was encouraging, and soopen for a man of his age." (Musician; Dec. 1987; p.62+64).

Remastered by ALS, May 2003

Comments:
Sting opened for The Grateful Dead several times in 1993. On May 15-16, 1993 he opened for the Dead at the Sam Boyd Silver
Bowl in Las Vegas. Audience tapes of these performances have always been available but it was not until Fall 2002 that
soundboards of these shows began to surface. The good news is that both shows sound terrific - there is a wonderful depth
to the music and the vocals and instruments are very well balanced. The bad news is that the soundboards for both shows are
incomplete. The May 15th soundboard does not include the last part of "When the World..." and "Every Breath You Take." The
May 16th soundboard does not include the opening track, "Blackbird." These remastered and complete versions contain an
audience patch for the missing tracks. Also, although I usually don't like to modify the music, I have made one minor
change. The opening of "Purple Haze" is botched in a manner that is both awful-sounding and dangerous to perfectly good
speakers and ear drums. I have taken the liberty of minimizing but not eliminating the offending passage.
