lossless shows
 
Hi people,

I was browsing the net for Fleetwood Mac live shows and stumbled on this site. There is a great thread here were bootlegs are being shared. The only thing is, they are all in mp3. Now there's nothing wrong with that but I'm a bit picky and prefer my music lossless. Mp3 often are lesser quality than the source they are from(compressed) and lossless files are exact copies so there is no loss of quality. Lossless formats are FLAC and WAVE files to name a few. Now I want to start a thread with only lossless FM shows. I will post some cool FM shows here and hope you will do the same so I can add them to my collection. I start off with this one, a nice Soundboard from the Tusk tour(the text is from the Original info file):

Now enjoy and share!!:]

Just wanted to say thank you! I love FLAC myself but basically never download it, simply because my internet is rubbish and slow so I cling to smaller, lossy files. But I do appreciate the option. Cheers. :)

slick2007 10-31-2014 04:42 AM

you are welcome, and good things come to those who wait...lol!:nod:

SorcererJP 10-31-2014 03:21 PM

I'm a huge fan of Dimeadozen.org, it's a torrent-site and holds many many lossless-shows. Up to 8 recent Fleetwood Mac-shows of this tour so far are posted.

Only thing is that they have a limit on users, so it is not always possible to register, besides that you have to keep sharing to keep your ratio up.

Okay, lossless-files take up a lot of space, but with those large drives or sd-cards no-one should really bother about that. Flac is superior to MP3 if you'd ask me.

If you really want MP3, there are a lot of encryption-code-apps available on the interwebs, so you can encode them yourselves.

slick2007 10-31-2014 03:28 PM

I think Dime is great too, but the shows from FM there I already have. There are a lot of shows from the period between the white album tour and the Mirage tour that I don't have. Flac would be great but wave is cool also, as long as the "source" isn't mp3.

SorcererJP 10-31-2014 05:12 PM

In the dungeons of my NAS (to stay in style this Halloween), I found a lossless show from the Rumors-tour ...

Thanks a lot! Could you post the Rosemont show if it's complete? I've been searching for it for a long time!
Tell me what I can give you in exchange.

Wow! Do you still have the Greensboro show? That is the one Wild Heart show I've never heard. I didn't even know it was in existence.

thanks for the link SisterNightroad but they are all in mp3.

And yes, I still have the Greensboro Stevie show, will upload it here tomorrow

Yes, but in all the 5 years that I've searched for bootlegs the only shows that I've found for Buffalo, Little Rock, Glasgow, Kansas, Uniondale and Birmingham are there, I think that right now they aren't circulating.

Instead:
Orlando 29-5-77
Tokyo 5-12-77
Dallas 23-7-78
Detroit 19-9-82
Tempe 30-9-82
East Troy 10-10-82
Baton Rouge 13-10-82
Denver 15-10-82
Oakland 20-10-82
were all present both in lossless and MP3 formats on the Ivorykeys blogspot before its shut down, so in the next weeks they will be posted again while rebuilding the site.

During the early times in my bootlegs hunt I've found interesting things on this site, maybe you can find something interesting under the lossless tag: http://www.guitars101.com/forums/tag...=fleetwood+mac

slick2007 11-02-2014 06:46 AM

Thanks for the link. The shows I''m looking for are on a lot of peoples list but they won''t share or answer e-mails. Too bad, ,was hoping those people were freq visiting this site and maybe would want to share. I can get most of the shows around the net in MP3, but I want them lossless, and that''s the prob. Well(oh well) I just have to have patience, I guess(not my strong point though).

Btw, I came across a post off a while earlier about someone''s list of audio shows on etree. The person involved moved to another place to live and gave his collection to somebody. Would ,anyone know to whom he gave his stuff???

It concerned this thread:

That would be me.

All of the Stevie Nicks shows from this collection (plus some I had in my mediafire account) have all been posted in the Stevie forum.

I am still in the process of uploading Fleetwood Mac shows to online storage but have posted some online already. Most of what was in this collection has also been posted by welcomechris and SisterNightroad here in the Rumours forum.

However, none of the shows were lossless. All are being uploaded in 320kbps MP3. Shows with a lower bitrate than that are those that were left in my mediafire account or that I found elsewhere on the net (IvoryKeys, blogs, here on the Ledge, etc.) and the large majority of them do not go below 160kbps.

I understand your frustration. I truly do. Virtually all of the TITN and BTM shows were recorded and are in the hands of fans along with hard to find shows from other Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks tours. They weren't always the best sound quality (most were B/B- and below) but at least they were recorded. I remember trading extensively with a wonderful trader from Italy and a gentleman here in the States somewhere who had these shows but they were all on cassette. I spent months trading with both gentlemen, who were excellent to trade with, to gather all the TITN and BTM shows I could with the intention to either transfer them myself or eventually send them to Brian J so he could do the transfers (he did top quality transfers). I managed to get to a few done but never got around to sending them to Brian J (who has since stopped trading--what an asset to the trading community he was!) and I don't have the shows anymore. However, they are still out there. I've seen them on one public trade list on CD (I assume this trader got them from the same traders I did as they first showed up on their list on cassette) but they never make it to the Internet in MP3 or lossless format. It would be nice if these never-before-circulated shows would be posted for everyone to enjoy regardless of whether it's an A or a D recording. I've never understood the reasoning behind hoarding a C-quality audience recording. :shrug:

I really miss the good old days when FM/SN fan sites were all over the place. So many great sites back in the day used to post shows and demos and outtakes on a weekly or bi-weekly basis. Some were dedicated to Stevie, some to Lindsey and some to the band. Others took in everything and you could see a mix of all sorts of shows and rarities being posted. I did it myself for a while and it was a lot of work, especially since I was still on dial-up back then and it felt like uploads took days to complete. It sure was fun, though! I'm trying to restore as much of the old site I used to work with as possible along with download links for as much as I can get a hold of. The only data I have left is what is still on the Internet Archive so it's really slow going and I know some of it I will never be able to put back together. I'll give it my best shot, though!

Another good site for getting lossless (and some MP3) FM/SN/LB is the Thrown Down torrent site. It is dedicated to FM and its members. There are a lot of torrents needing seeds (a simple re-seed request usually fixes that) and the collection is by no means complete but there is some great stuff there:

I used to also frequent The Traders Den back in the day. It's sort of like dimeadozen and occasionally a good gem will come along: http://www.thetradersden.org

Thank you for the Greensboro 1983 show, btw. :)

All of the Stevie Nicks shows from this collection (plus some I had in my mediafire account) have all been posted in the Stevie forum.

I am still in the process of uploading Fleetwood Mac shows to online storage but have posted some online already. Most of what was in this collection has also been posted by welcomechris and SisterNightroad here in the Rumours forum.

However, none of the shows were lossless. All are being uploaded in 320kbps MP3. Shows with a lower bitrate than that are those that were left in my mediafire account or that I found elsewhere on the net (IvoryKeys, blogs, here on the Ledge, etc.) and the large majority of them do not go below 160kbps.



I understand your frustration. I truly do. Virtually all of the TITN and BTM shows were recorded and are in the hands of fans along with hard to find shows from other Fleetwood Mac and Stevie Nicks tours. They weren't always the best sound quality (most were B/B- and below) but at least they were recorded. I remember trading extensively with a wonderful trader from Italy and a gentleman here in the States somewhere who had these shows but they were all on cassette. I spent months trading with both gentlemen, who were excellent to trade with, to gather all the TITN and BTM shows I could with the intention to either transfer them myself or eventually send them to Brian J so he could do the transfers (he did top quality transfers). I managed to get to a few done but never got around to sending them to Brian J (who has since stopped trading--what an asset to the trading community he was!) and I don't have the shows anymore. However, they are still out there. I've seen them on one public trade list on CD (I assume this trader got them from the same traders I did as they first showed up on their list on cassette) but they never make it to the Internet in MP3 or lossless format. It would be nice if these never-before-circulated shows would be posted for everyone to enjoy regardless of whether it's an A or a D recording. I've never understood the reasoning behind hoarding a C-quality audience recording. :shrug:

thank you for your explanation. It''s a shame that the stuff you got is all lossy. I am gathering a bit of great shows from somebody who is very generous to me so there are still fans out there who want to share. I am slowly gonna upload things at the Ivory keys facebook page(all lossless) so stay tuned!!
