Indeed. The situation has improved re. archive releases but I wish artists & record companies would create another channel if distributing music for the more hardcore fans that instead of only thinking in terms of mainstream releases.
Fuck Bootleggers, and the modern equivalent - illegal downloaders. How about the folks who make a living creating music come to your place of business each day and steal the products of your work?
I used to only like soundboard bootlegs but now I've gotten into sbd/ aud matrixes and sometimes pure audience tapes cause I realized I'm hearing the sound quality of venues and what people would have heard at the shows that way.
That Bootleg was legendary when I was in short pants but me and my mates had no idea how to get hold of bootlegs in the provinces. Now I have a few as curios more than anything.
And I love every bootleg recording of The Amazing Pudding much better than the orchestra version of Atom Heart Mother. Those entwined voices of Gilmour, Wright, and Waters is sublime in the snippet played here. edit: fixed typos and working title mistake.
Oh, it’s fine for John Lennon to sit inside a bag all day but when I do it they say I’m not fit to do my job! It’s one rule for internationally renowned front men of 60’s Liverpudlian beat combo’s and another for Ryanair pilots, apparently.
I agree. Even the mediocre ones often have that certain charme only a bootleg could capture, that sense of being in the middle of it & of hearing how it actually sounded.
That really depends on the band and bootlegger. I've heard some truly abysmal bootlegs of otherwise great bands. And I'm using the term 'abysmal' in an entirely inappropriate way, too
I never heard of bootlegs until my neighbor called me over to his house in 1977 to hear Led Zeppelin Earl's Court, an audience tape from 1975. I was fascinated then, and it continues unabated to this day. I'll listen to a good audience tape over a soundboard any day. They're like taking a time machine trip back to the glory days of Rock.
That's the type of comment that I could have left. For me it was around that time as well, when I discovered bootlegs in a local communist book & record store. I bought the copy of Hot Wax they had for sale & I was blown away - "you mean we can listen to parts of all these past concerts we never had a chance to go to? I'm so in." These days two of my ext. HD are full of audience recordings, sdbds & radio broadcasts.

A famous early Floyd bootleg was recorded in my hometown in 1970 - Live at Akademiska Föreningen (AF), Lund University, Sweden. In reality it's the house of the Students' Union Corps, the gig was taped at their grand hall which has been used for concerts, theatre spectacles, public debates and conferences for a hundred years (I have attended many times, for instance seeing Sir George Martin talking about "The Making of Sgt Pepper"). :)
Tpday we are happy to have at least bootlegs for historical reasons. In the 70ties Pink Floyd was so afraid of bootlegs that there is almost no official live recording of their shows. Maybe this TV feature was the reason Pink Floyd were so paranoid.
The Yoko bit was hilarious. That's the attitude if you ask me. They're making shedloads anyway. And hearing Pink Floyd during that period made me kind of sad to think how it would all go so sour.
Jeffry Collins is still alive and in the biz. You KNOW Peter Grant did what he did best. Gave him a "stern" warning and Collins knew Grant wasn't bluffing. Peter had a rep of violently dealing with those that tried to rip off his acts.
Yes I unfortunately got to know that Skeezer well he runs a shady imprint label associated with U.M.G. called Famous Records. He lives in Coral Springs Florida. A sheister from the word go . He held onto four of my masters for five years never properly promoted them . I was to do all the heavy lifting and he would have stolen any $$$ made . I had to pull a Peter Grant to get them back . What goes round gets taken down 😎💪🏼😎
For the Floyd fan (as in this, in person); note the background music throughout (except the Beatles bit) & at end, a 'master tape' early / variation of 'Ummagumma' outtake?
but we would still listen to bootlegs. Also today nobody needs to buy bootlegs, they're all over the internet, which is, i think, a good thing. Nobody should make money with bootlegs.
@@humanbutchery9412 I would think listening to a good boootleg of a concert performance would motivate one to make sure and see them on their next tour. So glad I was able to attend 3 Pink Floyd concerts before the break-up.
On the whole they were crappy quality (top award to Cream at RAH that was recorded in the cinema with people talking or the Santana one where the music cuts out with a radio show) but there was something about them. Some were absolute fantastic quality and the performances far better than the officially release. I used to buy mine for £8 from a bookshop ran by an America hippy in Brighton. My biggest want is Alice Cooper 'Parracidal skumbers' which was deleted really quick. Tarkl was a pretty good label and they were often in coloured vinyl! Happy days.
it's John's satirical take on prejudice and judgementalism. If we all lived in bags then maybe people wouldn't judge based on appearance anymore... or maybe we would all just judge each other because my bag is better than your bag.
Too bad that groups don't have managers like Peter Grant to protect their interests anymore! A passionate defender. These days it's all done impersonally with lawyers.
I just bought a Hendrix bootleg. It is his Paris 67 concert which was recorded by a french TV station and was an official bootleg untill Jimi's estate acquired the tapes . Everything was miked up properly mixed and mastered properly and it's two track and the audio quality is superb.
@@philipbrougham6360 I checked Hendrix's Copenhagen 9/3/70 Concert out . I think a few good sound engineers could use AI or something to fix that two hour show up for release on vinyl or streaming.
The greed. Do you think any fans bought bootlegs INSTEAD of buying official releases? I highly doubt it. They bought them IN ADDITION to buying official releases. So the bands and labels didn’t loose any money. The fans just wanted MORE than the labels were giving them.
TBH, I doubt this mattered to the record companies. Pink Floyd until very recently shut down auctions of PF vinyl bootlegs via the web sheriff. They never saw any value of having live recordings from 1970 - 77 circulate for the limited number of fans that enjoy them but neither did they record their own performances and release them themselves (The few performances on The Early Years box excepted).
Never hurt the Grateful Dead, they actively encouraged it. Now, because of those high quality recordings they've got an incredible catalogue of shows to clean up and release.
Imagine being behind the counter in your little record store, and looking up to find out why it's suddenly gone dark. There, filling the doorway is Mr Grant, fixing you with that icey stare. Resistance is futile! He may have had a 20% cut in the band but my god he looked after them.
wow so thats how they made Led Zepp blueberry Hill...thats clever even for those days...you dont need to drag a 1/2 inch recorder into the arena and plug it in. Just transmit the mics to outside and have your van full of gear there in the parking lot. Genius. Im surprised more werent done like this
Rubber Dubber was the only outfit that did this & they did bootleg this show also: www.discogs.com/master/783711-Led-Zeppelin-Live-At-The-Los-Angeles-Forum-9-4-70 TMOQ's version was recorded the old fashioned way. www.discogs.com/release/2734183-Led-Zeppelin-Live-On-Blueberry-Hill
Imagine if somebody told them that in 50 years there is going to be this thing called RUclips and you can listen to any song ever recorded for free and you can even record your own music and publish for free.
The compact cassette along with a change in the law killed this off and so everyone would trek up to Camden to get last weeks gigs on a D90 for a couple of quid. But you could still find dodgy Italian vinyl pressings in Virgin on Oxford street until the early 90s
I agree that once recordable media appeared, some buyers fell away but a core remained and vinyl boots hung on until the 90's. The biggest threat was always getting busted by the FBI/local law enforcement, which heated up in the late 70's.
They should make a Hollywood movie about the concert and bootleg scene and catch that whole vibe of the late 60s to mid 70s. Maybe even combine it with some hippie characters.
I fondly remember when the Virgin Megastore in Union Street Glasgow covered 6 floors and if memory serves me right the bootlegs were kept on the 3rd floor. Good times.
For a live bootleg, it probably doesn't. But for the stolen masters that are then released with changed song titles on a bootleg released in a small country, that allows someone to buy the finished product at a reduced price, instead of the artists' official release at a higher price.
@@majwilsonlion I agree that in those circumstances where an official release has been pirated, but live concert material only serves to enhance an acts reputation. Led Zeppelin being a case in point.
The interview at abbey Road he started hurling during the interview and said i think i am going to be sick when he was smacked out i bet he was nodding out in the bag probably Yoko had a emergency bag and a sick bag for him.
People don't understand why people buy bootlegs. We buy them because we already have every second of officially released material and want more. No one is losing a dime.
HENDRIX everywhere ! Hendrix mean 1970 era ! ... You can't imagine the era , you have to be there . Its something . The Spirit of the Era , its call also the Zeitgeist ! The full mind and soul of something . You see also that after 7 pm its pitch black outside . Everybody forget it , with alot of beauty and soul . I dont forget IT , and I never will . 1960-70 Era only , nothing more , nothing .
I think Yoko had the right idea. Bands that nobody liked didn't get bootlegged. I doubt any of the acts featured here really lost much money to bootlegging as it was back then. The people who were willing to shell out the money for bootlegs also bought the official releases, and buyers who were in that market understood that the sometimes low quality was not a reflection of the band. They just wanted to hear more music, and paid for it. Of course, releasing illegal versions of official albums was a problem, but the bands did fine. These days, everything is available for free on youtube and the album business barely exists anymore.
Makes me laugh when all these bands are nothing without the fans that buy records, tickets and merchandise but moan about bootlegging live shows . As a collector of live Van Morrison shows from 1971 onwards I know that it’s only a very small group of aficionados that buy bootlegs as well as the official’ releases. Look at what the Grateful Dead used to do as they encouraged fans to record their shows . That’s the true spirit
When IBM was introducing Market Driven Quality into their manufacturing workforce, they cited the Grateful Dead's policy of allowing people to make bootleg recordings because that was what the market wanted.
I assume you are you talking about bootleg vinyl or CD's offered for sale (the market has shrunk quite a bit in the last 20 years and the print runs are now only around 500 or so)? It depends when & how they were recorded, I would say & I have a "glass half full" perspective: A surprising number of them actually sound pretty good, if you're willing to adjust your standards down from commercially released Frankenstein'd live albums. They're a more honest presentation of what the concert actually sounded like (if an audience recording) & they're usually the only way to hear that particular show. Finally, a lot of bootlegs have been liberated via live music torrent sites, so there is no need to pay for them.
I don't believe any bootleg record has affected the artist sales. If you are buying bootlegs then you want everything by that artist. Why else would you buy inferior product.
Yes: it is Pink Floyd's 'Seabirds', STILL frustratingly unreleased! They did NOT include it in The Early Years box set. There IS a track on there called 'Seabirds' but its an entirely different song, an instrumental.
A. That's because you didn't put your "bootleg ears" on. B. You failed to appreciate that this was the only way this performance was preserved, in most cases, so it's this bootleg recording or nothing. C. It simply hasn't been my experience. Plenty of radio/line recordings and studio outtakes among the many I've owned or heard.

I assume you are you talking about bootleg vinyl or CD's offered for sale (the market has shrunk quite a bit in the last 20 years and the print runs are now only around 500 or so)?
It depends when & how they were recorded, I would say & I have a "glass half full" perspective: A surprising number of them actually sound pretty good, if you're willing to adjust your standards down from commercially released Frankenstein'd live albums.
They're a more honest presentation of what the concert actually sounded like (if an audience recording) & they're usually the only way to hear that particular show.
Finally, a lot of bootlegs have been liberated via live music torrent sites, so there is no need to pay for them.
I don't believe any bootleg record has affected the artist sales. If you are buying bootlegs then you want everything by that artist. Why else would you buy inferior product.
Anyone know the song playing at 5:59
Yes: it is Pink Floyd's 'Seabirds', STILL frustratingly unreleased! They did NOT include it in The Early Years box set. There IS a track on there called 'Seabirds' but its an entirely different song, an instrumental.
Ibiza Bar, More, B2.
Most of the bootlegs I heard sounded terrible. It always sounded like they were recorded in the room next door to the arena.
A. That's because you didn't put your "bootleg ears" on.
B. You failed to appreciate that this was the only way this performance was preserved, in most cases, so it's this bootleg recording or nothing.
C. It simply hasn't been my experience. Plenty of radio/line recordings and studio outtakes among the many I've owned or heard.
