The
last "real" opposition concert. Marc, Marcus and Ralph on
the same stage ... This song has never been released on record and
Marc will give you more details than me ;-)
|
|||||||||||
The
last Opposition concert (to date ;-). I was there. The intro to "Crawl
to Me" by Lol is a real treat. I could listen the band playing
around this little gimmick for hours.
|
|||||||||||
The
date and venues are unknown, but this is another Oppositon soundboard
recording. You wouldn't beleive how many soundboard recordings are
floating around ... This one of Someone to Talk to is in stereo and
is really nice.
|
|||||||||||
Marcus's "tour
de force" on bass. My favorite song ever : "Big Room Small
View"
|
|||||||||||
Marc
asked me five tracks, but I couldn't leave you without the missing
intro bit on "New York, Paris, Peckham" before "Five
minutes". (and yes, my source also cuts at the same moment
at the end)I hope you had a good time with these footware ;-).
Check out the wiki for more details on each recording.Would you have any Opposition live recording (any quality, audio/video, anything, and I mean it) please contact me : jean-manuel@esnault.cjb.net for a trade. |
