A just-about-listenable audience recording, but interesting because it's such an early performance.

10,000 Maniacs - Chicago 1988

Type: CDR Date: 1988-04-14 Quality: A Cover: not available Reference: #1228

I'd love to hear a copy of this in the original broadcast quality. This recording isn't bad at all, but it's a bit warbly, hissy and indistinct and just leaves me wishing I could hear the original.

10,000 Maniacs - Buffalo 1989

Type: 2CDR Date: 1989-09-19 Quality: B Cover: not available Reference: #1324

An impressive audience recording with a full, if slightly indistinct, sound. Nearly an 'A' rating, but there are channel drop-outs and fluctuations which spoil the recording somewhat (e.g. at start of Cherry Tree).

10,000 Maniacs - Open Up Your Ears

Type: CDR Date: 1989-12-02 Quality: A Cover: online Reference: #1229

Seems to be an audience recording because of the occasional voices very close to the microphone, but it has the full sound of a soundboard, albeit a slightly tinny and hissy one. A good listen.

10,000 Maniacs - Chicago 1991

Type: CDR Date: 1990-10-31 Quality: A+ Cover: online Reference: #5

An excellent recording, presumably from a radio broadcast, although it sounds slightly too fast to me (this may have been their style at the time though).

10,000 Maniacs - Charlottesville 1992

Type: 2CDR Date: 1992-11-14 Quality: A Cover: not available Reference: #1292

An extraordinarily clear and full audience recording that could even be a soundboard recording of some sort. The levels fluctuate a lot, particularly Natalie's vocals, but it catches the energy of the show really well and in places is really superb. One to play really loud!
