James Taylor

Lucca Summer Festival
thursday 16th July 2009, 21:30 hours

Piazza Napoleone, Lucca (Tuscany, Italy)

Live FM radio broadcast by "I Concerti di Radio1", Radio Uno RAI [first channel of italian national radio], from an open air show. Piazza Napoleone is one of Lucca main city squares.


WARNINGS:
1- RadioUno can broadcast only the first 90 mins or so of the concert, which faded out to give space to night-time radio news, at 11 o'clock. Unfortunately the show by Taylor was dived in two sets, with a 15 mins break in between, that's why we only have 69mins of music. As far as as I know, there are no plans for a future broadcast of the missing tracks. And I strongly doubt they will ever do.
2- as in italian radio customs, the DJ speaks a lot in-between songs. His purpose is to translate in italian what the musicians say, the introductions to every song and bits of the history of the band. It may gets VERY annoying, and trust me it does, thus we might consider this recording only for completists. But the songs, the actual music, are usually not spoken over. Said so, there were indeed long breaks and talks in between songs, filled by radio banter. Or you could think that it's so damn exotic having someone speaking in an unknown language in your boot!
3- also, this broadcast doesn't sound good! It sounds like the radio was not tuned perfectly, but trust me it was, with louder sounds clipping/scratching, and you will notice many microphone disturbances during radio banters. It is the worst RAI brodcast in years! Again, we might consider this recording only for completists.

note that due to disk space limitations, I will not be able to keep seeding this torrent for a long time - I will abandon the seed in a few days, maybe remove from HD these wav/flac files, and keep only my own CDR. Too many things to upload. In case of seeders going missing, enlist yourself as a leecher and some seeder will come back, and you are anyhow welcome to try and ask for additional torrenting...
FFP included - if uploaded on other trackers or reseed (and you are welcome to do both), please include original infofile. Also, if not satisfied with my offering, you are welcome to remaster/retrack/whatever and repost, but please always clearly state where/who did you have this material from and keep original infofile.
