I understand the tracks are a mixture recorded recorded on April 30th 1989 in Orlando and April 29th 1989 in Miami.
I originally bought this show on a bootleg CD back in the day, and then sold the single CD version of this show on comparing to the Poets of the Wheat 2CD sourced version here.
This was because the Poets of the Wheat version here has a nice clear sound. It is a little trebley but feels less 'claustrophobic' (for lack of a better description) than other versions I heard/had.
I believe it is sourced from a radio station LP ultimately, rather than a radio station CD - and there were differences in the sound of these quite often. There is the slightest wow and flutter but it's a great involving listen I feel.
I used de click to deal with mild vinyl clicks on a low setting...Michael Stipe's voice and the grinding guitars mean this was necessary. The entire results were carefully checked, using Sennheiser headphones.
Enjoy.
WANTED
Full recording of the 28th April 1991 REM / Billy Bragg / Robyn Hitchcock show - it has circulated. I love the song Wild Mountain Thyme and Dark End of the Street, for instance, and would love to hear what Robyn Hitchcock and Billy Bragg did with them here, for example.
Any REM live 1991 high quality recordings not featured in the recent run on Zomb (incidentally I am working on a video sourced Unplugged and Radio 1 13th March 1991 torrent too).
Looking for IGGY POP
There are a few Iggy items I am after - particularly from 1987, and I am sure some here may have these, and hope someone can help...I have done my best to reduce the list to those that I feel are likely to be the best, in terms of sound and performance quality. More details follow further below, but first...
********** Sick of You in 1987 **********
According to the very useful 'Setlist.FM' website (http://www.setlist.fm/stats/iggy-pop-43d6b7eb.html), Iggy performed 'Sick of You' 5 times (though they missed off one - the Bristol one, which makes it 6 times) in 1987.
It was a great performance, judging by those I have heard so far. I am keen to collect them all, and have the Bristol, Lorelei and Munich performances so far - I would be very grateful if anyone here could share the Hannover or Hamburg 1987 shows (the latter was shared by Arcorman on Dime back in 2007) - or simply Sick of You (and perhaps Sixteen, Dirt and Down on the Street) from these shows if your time is at a premium or you do not have the complete shows - happy to receive these in any form you like (torrent, upload, disc by snailmail - just *not* mp3 though please).

REVISED Iggy 'WANTS' LIST
I've scaled this down a bit as clearly the amount of people interested in non Stooges Iggy has decreased over the last few years judging by the amount of downloads, and perhaps some of the 'scaled down' wants below someone might be able to help on. I lost certain concerts in hard drive crashes, you might have had one too, so hope you can help if possible...
