coming in the end of may. but it is probably the San Francisco gig and the Nimes gig on dvd or Basel i believe.But its strange that they already released the San Francisco gig last year and now last time in the 5 cd box that came a couple of months ago and the Nimes gig they released last year on dvd when it says live 1991 on the cover. I have wanted more they release live records from the 91 shows or early 92. and of course from 82-83 and 85 but it doesnt exists many of them i believe therefor they release same concerts all the time.

Check this out, new bootleg's coming out

[Jules]

Very interesting silver press bootleg cd, this is the earliest DS recording we know!

And also includes that famous encores with Talking Heads!

Funniest cover ever, look at MK and John faces!

Also nice back cover, check that "Wild west end" is titled like in the demo tape, that was the original title of the song "Walking in the wild west end"

Also "Me and my friends" is titled "Me and my band", that I always suspected was the real title of that, as MK sings "Me and my band" during all the song...

[JF]

nice one, but to be accurate, the very earliest live recording of DS we know is the Eastbound train live version from Hope & Anchor december 77 
and of course studio demos from july 77

but you are right, this one is the earliest full gig we know

Exactly, that's what I mean.

If I'm not wrong, this is the first MK bootleg to be released on vinyl!!!

In this case, it's a vinyl, and covers the same concert that the cd "The Talking Heads Tour" but in this casem without the Talking Heads encore tracks.

It's called "Songs from Deptford" and the vinyl is orange.

It's also offering a package with other great vinyl called "Fraternal Feeling"

The MK 2cds silver pressed bootleg of the Royal Albert Hall is already on presale in ebay. The seller puts copies in small number and when they are sold, he puts more, so if you are interested, keep checking.

This is really special to me, because as many of you, I've been a regular to the RAH since 2005, I met a lot of you there, at the pub, or outside the venue. I have so great memories of being at the RAH for MK concerts that this one makes me very happy.

I fully understand that some of these new ones can get people exited and actually buy them, for example the coloured LP´s or something. They look nice. Musically its the same songs we already have I guess. Nothing new right. Personally I stopped buying bootlegs when I joined the MK forum many, many years ago, and other options became clear to me :-)
So somebody out there is making good money of already known material, they just have a pro presser for CD´s or VINYL, print the covers and sell them.
They probably sell MK/DS and many other artists as well. Plain stupid and illegal. But they fill a market because the MK/DS management is too lazy to actually fill the market with legal, new exiting products. What a shame....
