If like me you look at what the Manic Street Preachers have become and silently weep to yourself let me take you back to a time when they were young, dangerous & full of attitude.
This is a selection of stuff recorded between 1985 & 1990 in a lot of cases recorded before Richey Edwards even joined the band. Both their debut single and it's B side are here, as is a song they put out as a really limited edition flexidisc. A fair chunk of this stuff was refined and came out on their debut album a few ended up as B sides to the early singles, quite a few songs have never been released.
So download, listen & go back to a time when the Manic Street Preachers meant something slightly more than the sad middle aged men they became and the middle of the road dross they've been churning out for well over a decade.

Manic Street Preachers - Demo Recordings & Rare Stuff 1985-1990
I'm there! Cheers for the upload

One from me, which I think I've shared to a few on these boards before, but here it is for anyone else who wants a copy;

David Bowie - Toy

^ Gotta love that dodgy fanmade photoshop sleeve art.

Here lies a bunch of early 2000s re-recordings of Bowie's pre-Space Oddity 60s back catalogue. A handful of the tracks on it have been released as B-sides, downloads from his official site or bonus tracks, but for the most part this album is officially unreleased (which is why there are a lot of 30 second excerpts here). Most of the full-length tracks here vastly improve on their original recordings in the 60s, and two of these songs are some of my favourite Bowie tracks, so have a gander if you haven't already eh.

Here are a couple of tunes off it;
YouTube - David Bowie - 11. You've Got a Habit Of Leaving - Toy Album
YouTube - Conversation Piece - music by David Bowie

And here's the tracklisting;

1. Uncle Floyd (30 secs)
2. Afraid (demo)
3. Baby Loves That Way
4. I Dig Everything (30 secs)
5. Conversation Piece
6. Let Me Sleep Beside You
7. Your Turn To Drive
8. Hole In the Ground (30 secs)
9. Shadow Man
10. In the Heat Of the Morning (30 secs)
11. You've Got a Habit Of Leaving
12. Silly Boy Blue
13. London Boys
14. Liza Jane (30 secs)

Found this a while back with zero information with it so I have no idea where it was recorded. All I know is that it was recorded on 14th Feb 1992. Even the tracklisting was absent. I managed to fill in most of the blanks but i'm still unsure of tracks 9 & 11.
It's not the greatest sound quality in the world but it's not terrible, I'd say it was about as good as an average soundboard recording.
Shame they never put out a proper live album because if there's one thing this gig does is show that they were much better live than in the studio.

I have to listen before I'll confirm that statement but still .. Holy shit! Thank you! I've always regretted never seeing them play back then.

Echo & The Bunnymen : Prince of Wales Conference Centre, YMCA, London : 02 Aug 1979


1. Monkeys
2. All That Jazz
3. Pictures On My Wall
4. Do It Clean
5. Happy Death Man
6. Villiers Terrace

This is an old one, in fact it's so old this was Echo & The Bunnymen's 10th ever gig and their first in London before they were signed. (The A&R man that signed them was watching them at this gig) It was also recorded while they were still a 3 piece and were still using 'Echo' their drum machine.

This gig was part of a 4 day showcase of bands all playing the same venue. The Bunnymen were on first on the first day, also playing that night were The Teardrop Explodes, Joy Division and Essential Logic headlining. A scan of the gig review from the following weeks NME is included with the file.
The sound quality isn't bad to say this is an unsigned band from 32 years ago.

Here's something a little different.
Late last year with the upcoming 20th anniversary of the release of Primal Scream's Screamadelica album BBC 6 Music dedicated a whole show to the producer of that album, Andrew Weatherall doing a 2 hour DJ set on some of the music that inspired the Screamadelica album.

As you can see it's a very eclectic mix which is well worth a listen. You might even find something new that takes your interest. I'm off to see if I can find a Los Ninos Del Parque album.

Sorry for hijacking this thread, but just thought I'd share a couple with you.

Codeine - Live at VUB, Brussels, Belgium 10-2-1991



Early-90's slowcore miserablists in all their live glory. The set here draws material from their debut album Frigid Stars and their EP Barely Real. The sound quality is pretty good although slightly muffled, but you can hear all instruments pretty clearly.

Setlist
D
Cigarette Machine
Cave-In
Tom
Realize
Jr
Pickup Song
Pea


Download


My Bloody Valentine - Live in Vancouver 4-7-1992 (Loom)



Also known among MBV bootleggers as "Loom" and is regarded as one of the best MBV bootlegs. Not really sure about the date of it. The sound quality is pretty decent although the vocals are a bit low in the mix and the sound cuts briefly during a couple of songs. The "Holocaust" section in the middle of 'You Made Me Realise' sounds like a nuclear reactor exploding in your face, great stuff. There is however one song missing from the bootleg, 'Blown a Wish', that was on the setlist.

Setlist
When You Sleep
I Only Said
Only Shallow
Slow
Nothing Much To Lose
(Noise)
You Never Should
Feed Me With Your Kiss
Soon
To Here Knows When
Honey Power
You Made Me Realise


Download
