Notes


Elvis Costello & the Attractions, with Martin Belmont
February 4, 1981
Ocean State Theatre
Providence, Rhode Island, U.S.

source: reasonable audience recording (sample included in comments)
taper and equipment: unknown
lineage: unknown

Thanks to the unknown taper. Thanks also to John E for providing the flac files. I did minor retracking, including giving "Master Blaster" its own track in case anyone wants just this 50-second 2-verse version of the Stevie Wonder song. It's an ok recording for its time, with no flaws to speak of except for the guy who frequently yells "alright Elvis".

Editing lineage: Audacity (retracking) > TLH > FLAC 6 (align on SB) > Foobar2000 (flac tags).

Notes:
- "Just A Memory" is EC & Steve only, and fades in on the opening notes (probably just a few seconds missing).
- levels a little too high for the first 10 seconds of "Accidents Will Happen" (see sample).
- rare performance of "Need Your Love So Bad" (one of six known performances).
- lovely artwork by Colin included in torrent.

Covers:
- "He's Got You" - Hank Cochran > Patsy Cline > Loretta Lynn
- "Master Blaster" - Stevie Wonder
- "I've Been Born Again" - Don Davis / James Dean > Johnnie Taylor
- "Need Your Love So Bad" - Little Willie John
- "Peace, Love And Understanding" - Nick Lowe
