Johnny Thunders
December - 16 - 1984
from MILAN collection # 072
Rec. Info:
1st gen aud cassette copied in the 80s / 1 st gen cass transfer via Onkyo tapedeck TA-2330 -> Magix Music Cleaning Lab (edit/remaster) -> FLAC -> DIME
The sound is very good especially after some equalizing (vg+).
This show was on dime before. But this must be from a different source as the show is complete (the first upload made by biddie in 2009 had a cut in Born To Lose).
Apart from this great show. Johnny played 5 or 6 gigs in Germany on this tour (see attached poster), Frankfurt, Bielefeld, Hamburg, Berlin + Düsseldorf on 21.12.84.
A "Thunders-List", link http://pabloinsua.tripod.com/thunders.htm, also indicates a gig in Nuernberg on 15.12.84 (maybe our Franken-guys can clarify this?).
Berlin and Hamburg were available on dime but Bielefeld and Nuernberg not.
Fact is that I made a recording from Bielefeld but what was the biggest shame of my taper career, I taped another show over the first side of the tape. And so only side 2
is still existing. Ok, I will upload this next, it is still more than 20 min. of pure Johnny Thunders power.
As can be seen on the poster the opener for Thunders were Abwaerts, a German punk band. I have not seen any recording from them from this tour so far. Maybe someone can help?
Tape length 59:05 min.
