Sly & The Family Stone
1970-09-10
Kasteel Groenevelt
Baarn, Netherlands
VPRO radio session
Radio Program: Piknik
From 1971 rebroadcast: off-air reel source with splices from an alternate source to eliminate diginoise in a few spots.
This is the same Flac files that I seeded last year. All that is changed is the text file and the addition of artwork that was supplied by a Dime user after this was seeded last time.
Total time: 31:26
1- Thank You 5:45
2- > M'Lady 4:46
3- Sing a Simple Song 5:33
4- Stand! 5:23
5- > Dance To The Music 4:55
6- > Music Lover 1:44
7- I Want to Take You Higher [reprise] [cut] 3:16
The show has also been normalized which improved it all a lot to my ears (listen on headphones if you have any doubts).
No lineage info on the alternate source but it's from the shorter rebroadcast and is low gen.
I've seen this listed as 9-2-70, so 9-10-70 might have been the original broadcast date with the info I had being for the recording date.
Thanks to the previous seeder!

Here is the description from the previous upload:
PLEASE NOTE:
This isn't sourced from the 2CD "Thesaurus of Funkasaurus" bootleg.
Instead its a superior source.
Lineage: 1971 VPRO FM broadcast>Revox Reel2Reel-deck>WAV>FLAC
Pristine Stereo Soundboard
The sound on this transfer is much more lively and its also (more) complete compared to what can be found on boots.
A Lossy version of this can be found on the VPRO site, from a 2003 re-broadcast

Upgrade in sound quality compared to other copies of this traded.
PS: Extra Special Big Thanx to the unnamed legend who captured this on his Revox in 1971!

There was a lot of music action going on in Europe following the Isle of Wight Festival in late August 1970, a lot of the bands that were there continued to tour Europe such as Sly & The Family Stone, Taste, Ten Years After, The Who, Jimi Hendrix, Mungo Jerry, Joan Baez. ÊToo bad the death of Jimi Hendrix ended his touring career.
