Technical difficulties in 1982, Budapest

2006.09.11. 15:44 gg

Edgar, please, don't kill me! What's next is a clear break of your copyright, but this crystal clear evidence of your heroic work must reach the audience.

In 1982, TD was not the first western pop production which performed a live concert in Hungary but they were not far from it (between the first ten I think). The marvellous Logos show was a real media sensation here and grabbed the mind of the audience of 11,000 where many of us attended (I was only 14 then).

Why I'm writing these lines is that a friend carefully recorded the show with a big reel-to-reel magnetophone and two decent mikes (yes, there were no any security staff then), and we are presenting now an excerpt which was never published elsewhere until now. The file contains a serious technical breakdown during the first half - the preprogrammed sequence (which is familiar for all of us who knows the concert set) suddenly fades out and Edgar, Chris and Johannes must fill 4+ minutes with heavy ambient improvisation while the technicians put everything in order. Download, and enjoy. Thank you, TD!

Brilliant! reminds of when I saw TD in 1981 or 82 (in London) and Johannes had equipment problems, he looked shocked, stopped the sequence, re-started it and continued the track.
Nice to see the newpaper photo as well.

cheers
