David Bowie - Sigma Sound Studios (1997-1998)

While I was looking for stuff from 1974, I came across this CD titled "Sigma Sound Studios", and like any hardcore Bowie nut, thought this might be good. :-) Well, I was right, but not in the way I expected. So now we take a small diversion back to where I started... Cowboy music. LOL

From the Sigma Sound Studios in Philly, this was the performance for WXPN. In my opinion, this is a real gem, backed by the Howard Stern Birthday party performance from 1998 - this part is not quite "Country", but Howard Stern does have something to do with Philadelphia, doesn't he. ;) LOL

Anyway, here are the details.

Sound - unfortunately recording levels were set a little too high, and this does suffer from some distortion (most noticeable in the Howard Stern set), however, it is still a really nice listen, and rare as rocking horse poo... until now. ;)

Now, just set the computer and sit back waiting for it to do it's thing, then... enjoy. :-)
