here you go there's two on the 'bassman' page you need to click on audios at the top and then the gigs are divided into the relevant tours.

this one is fairly straightforward but you do need both as neither is 100% exhaustive

further education time, quality is a bit poor but probably the coolest walk on in history.

i do - though i have to admit i have to be in the mood for 1987 as it's very much a case of if you've heard one you've heard them all - with the exception of one of the melbourne gigs where the glass spider didn't turn up. and i'm never in the mood for tin machine, sorry dave if you're reading this (have to put that clause in these days as you never know).

so far.... he's done glastonbury twice 1971 and 2000 and, hang on i've lost the ability to count, that was all he would allow the bbc to broadcast on tv though there's an hour of it from the radio.

of course not everything he made in the eighties was a pile of crap. the best six and a half minutes anyone has ever spent on stage.. 5.17 onwards he, the band and the audience know this is special.

why so special? for the location? the song itself? or?

it seems that many men coming from the 60s had some "problems" with the 80s .. mainly pointing the index to uncle Neil hehe

i would say that's my favourite song of his, the incident equivalent you might say, again it gets played too infrequently (post 1987 it hadn't appeared at all until 2000) but that version from the moment it kicks off is just fantastic, sometimes it can get a bit lost as i suspect it's not the easiest thing to play. I don't mind serious moonlight/let's dance Bowie - i do mind tonight, huge chunks of glass spider/never let me down and tin machine. Sound and vision tour i have no problem with but sadly it's followed by black tie, white noise.

i see your point about 60's>80's they all get lost, mccartney, the who, beach boys, neil young as you say, rolling stones - maybe it's the drugs that catch up with them.
