New record during the passage of the BIA tour in Australia in 1986.

[Brunno Nunes]

Look how wonderful I found it, an anticipated Christmas preeentr for all of us!!!!!!!

   There is material hidden out there that we didn't even dream of... an almost 3 month tour on a continent by the biggest band on the planet at the time, there had to be more recording besides the last one in Sydney 86.

And the most amazing thing is that it is a Soundboard recording




From what I understand, it is being posted in parts, it is a dvd file and possibly it can have the complete show, a good part of the concert.

Just look at the guitar that Mark uses in Ride Across The River, he started using this guitar in Australia in 1986

He with slightly shorter hair than at Wembley 85 for example, looking at this photo, it is probably at the beginning of the bands tour of Australia in February 1986

 See the guitar that Mark used in Ride Across The River 1986 (what a wonderful version), Jack doing a different solo in Expresso Love... Sensational!!!

let's appreciate!!!

Other part




Maybe we'll have the chance to see a video version of Telegraph Road during the BIA tour in 1986, just like the one they played in , Christchurch, New Zealand- 1986... One more Industrial Disease, or One World, one more lovely So Far Away, Calypso version, or maybe another version of Your Latest Trick... Anyway... looking forward to more!!!

These sounds emulated by the synthesizers in this song are absolutely amazing, very atmospheric, a unique mood.

They started doing this in December 1985, it's great, it adds so much to the song, beautiful subtlety.👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️

These recordings are insanely good and much, much appreciated.

Ride Across the River is one of my favourite songs of this tour as the end is always different and I've heard probably about 100 versions of this song. The version captured here is amongst the best,  if not the best for me.  The interplay with the synths as people have said can be heard in the Dec 1985 versions but is much more developed here. Also some different hammond organ parts if you listen carefully.

The camerawork is really good, captures the band at ease and very fluid in performance.  Very lucky to be seeing this  I really hope for more.  Thanks for sharing

Totally agree about RATR.  I must have listened to it about a dozen times now - fabulous version!  Lots of new things in there for us all to hear.

Was it done in purpose to prepare the live broadcast?

I completely agree with you, RATR is the song that most caught my attention on the BIA tour, especially the ending, which develops more and more as the tour progresses, the song gets longer, richer in atmosphere and in December she gets this extra layer of synths which is something that makes the song even more amazing and unique. With this video we can see that it continues to develop even more in 1986, this version in particular is probably my favorite in terms of sound experience, I know these songs in detail, I know the characteristics of many of them in each stage of the same tour and I can say that this version really has something very special among the almost 100 bootlegs that exist from 85/86.
We hope that soon the other songs of this concert will appear, who knows Telegraph Road for our ecstasy, imagine TOL too which is always a pearl...
