WHO THE F*** IS...
JACKIE LEVEN ?
although being a Scotsman, he is quite often called "The missing 7th
Monty Python", as he has exactly THIS sense of black humour - and a
serious interest in poetry...and this unseemly carnal intercourse...
in April 2010 he refused changing his Scottish Pounds into Greek Euros...
he still owns this grey toothbrush ex-Prime Minister Gordon Brown gave him
when they had a sexual relationship in their teens...but NO underpants !
he is a primitive kinda guy - he talks about "hand parties" on stage...
he is always concerned to get his devoted audience seriously drunk...
he denies all kind of encores, but after his concerts he will sign your
records, give you a kiss AND feel your "male reproductive appendix"...
(hmmm...is it allowed to say or write "COCK" on DIME ? Anyone ? Ted ??)
caught your interest ?
check the samples...
BRANDNEW & JUST SLIGHTLY MASTERED - PLEASE ENJOY!
And don't forget:
CRANK UP YOUR STEREO & START GRINNING !

JACKIE LEVEN & MICHAEL COSGRAVE (the artists)
Veranstaltungssaal "Alte Kaue" (the room)
Soziokulturelles Zentrum "Zeche Carl" (the venue)
Essen (the city)
Germany (the country)
September 23, 2010 (the date)
Essen is a city in the central part of the Ruhr area in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.
Located on the River Ruhr, its population of approximately 579,000 (in 2008) makes it
either the 7th- or 8th-largest city in Germany. For the year 2010, Essen is the European
Capital of Culture on behalf of the whole Ruhr area. Formerly one of Germany's most
important coal and steel centres and historically linked to the centuries-old Krupp
family iron works, the city has developed a strong tertiary sector of industry and
(sometimes together with nearby Düsseldorf) claims to be the "desk of the Ruhr area".
It is home to 13 of the 100 largest German corporations and seat to several of the
region's authorities. In 1958, the city was chosen to serve as the seat to a Roman
Catholic diocese (often referred to as Ruhrbistum or diocese of the Ruhr). In early
2003, the universities of Essen and the nearby city of Duisburg (both established in
1972) were merged into the University of Duisburg-Essen with campuses in both cities
and a university hospital in Essen.
Zeche Carl (Carl Mine) is a cultural centre set up by Essen Council in a former coal mine.
The mine was founded by the Hercules Company in Altenessen in 1855. They sank a shaft
equipped with a large-sized Malakow engine with two wings. The mine went operational in
1861, and produced high quality Anthracite suitable for producing coke - from 1883 and
on, it simply produced "Carl Coke".
After the First World War, the Cologne Mining Association was taken over by Hoesch AG.
Coal production was discontinued in 1929. The main shaft was dismantled and the ventilation
shaft used for another mine nearby, and in 1970 all other colliery work at the site was
brought to a close. In 1977, at the initiative of various citizens, youth and the local
protestant church Initiative Center Zeche Carl eV was established to run the former
colliery as a Cultural Centre. The entire group of buildings are now being conserved.
The reconstructed building has developed as a pan-regional cultural centre offering a
diverse programme of concerts, parties, classes, readings, exhibitions workshops etc.
It also provides space for other community groups, including Offene Kanal Essen, a
public television station.

Frizze NAILED THIS SHOW HERE to digital media...simply PERFECT !
so NO EQ'ing was used here, and none of those compressors, Sonic Maximizer or
other psychoacoustic processors - why ruin another true deafmusic masterpiece ?
it sounds completely the way it was distinguishable that night in this venue.
Dad accentuated just all the applause and spoken passages inbetween the songs,
averagely +6,0 dB, reduced some of the instrumental plug ins and smoothed out
some harsh passages - just a touch - to help balance it overall a bit better,
for HIS ears...and as he's really old enough, i still trust him completely...
the only further addition to the RAW files was a short fade-in and, at the end,
a fade-out - in the audience applause, so truly NO MUSIC was harmed or lost.
this upload here comes directly from the "Men With Microphones" archives.
if you want to know more about, check the old uploads...lotta stuff to read !
DE FACTO THIS IS FROM - deafmusic - ANOTHER PRICELESS "TAUBMUSIC" MASTERPIECE...
Leo once wrote:
VERY SPECIAL THANKS, from the bottom of my heart, to my longtime
friend & fellow DIMEr deafmusic for opening his incredible archive.
Parts of the "Deafmusic Collection" are also in the "MWM"-vaults, as we
did not only trade with each other for 30+ years, we also viewed and
recorded a bunch of shows together, as friends, music fans and concert
promoters, usually with a bunch of Tascams and Sony's in a row...
THIS TORRENT IS DEDICATED TO JACKIE & MICHAEL !
VERY SPECIAL THANKS:
Christine (tour manager)
Sven (sound)
Wolfgang (local promoter)
Chris (tour promoter)
Frizze (TAUBMUSIK)
And if there's some interest, maybe there is MORE TO COME...
