The Kinks - 1984-11-23 Frankfurt FM mono - TRAP 22


Lately appeared on Dime some recordings from the Festival "Flotter Dreier" with Klaus Lage Band, The Kinks and BAP. I just downloaded the Kinks Video.

My FM recording contains only the second half of the Kinks broadcast, and is in mono. It seems I missed the broadcast of the first half Kinks performance and also the complete Klaus Lage gig. But while there seems to be still no better audio source available I like to share mine in the meantime.

total time: 46:39 min


issues and treatment: there is hum during some parts. Few times there are short balance issues. I had to leave that. I compared the speed with the Video - in total the same but some fluctuations somewhere, so I left it. No EQ, no NR. I did only the volume optimizing (up to -0,5 dB)


transfer and upload on Dime in Jan 2010 by trapper
