Hold That Tiger

pinkstation · 08.25.2009, 02:50 PM

Just bought this bootleg today. The setlist is obviously unbelievable, but I was wonderinf how it compares to other bootlegs.

What are yr thoughts?

noisereductions · 08.25.2009, 02:54 PM

I hate the it's considered a bootleg. It was released by the band. To me that's just as official as the SYR series. But anyway.

The setlist is great, bt it's mastered at too fast a tape speed, so things sound falsely sped up if you notice.

Worth it for the encore alone.

Holds up next to any SISTER era boot, as this was a pretty standard setlist at the time.

You NEED to get LIVE AT THE CONTINENTAL CLUB however.

pinkstation · 08.25.2009, 02:55 PM

yeah i looked up the setlist for that. world looks red, and EVOL

incredible.

pinkstation · 08.25.2009, 02:59 PM

that bugged me a lot.
like they did not notice before sending it to manufacture.
gah

noisereductions · 08.25.2009, 03:10 PM

I think it was done to fit the original release on an LP. But they should have fixed it when the re-released it on CD>

greedrex · 08.25.2009, 03:12 PM

ha yeah

I've had HTT since the early 90's and never knew that it was sped up. I always thought they were playing those songs incredibly fast...guess I know why now!

pinkstation · 08.25.2009, 06:07 PM

yeah thats what i thought too.

how can you tell the difference?

pinkstation · 08.25.2009, 06:11 PM

also thurston sounds a lot different on this record

radarmaker · 08.25.2009, 06:39 PM

I thought the "tape sped up" thing had been debunked, no? Wasn't there some discussion about it a while back? It always sounded OK to me, and the spoken parts aren't noticeably out of whack.

greedrex · 08.25.2009, 07:01 PM

It is by all means sped up. slightly. Enough to put me off listening to it, no matter how good this is.

greedrex · 08.25.2009, 07:02 PM

talking about the CD of course; never heard the wax.

SONIC GAIL · 08.26.2009, 12:12 PM

I bought the LP back in day. we just hooked up the ol record player last month and I forgot all about it till then. A nice ol gem

SonicBebs · 08.27.2009, 02:25 AM

schizo sounds much better faster

krischanski · 08.26.2011, 03:03 AM

Does anyone know the meaning of the Chinese/Japanese letters?

Edit: Found it in the other old thread.

RanaldoNecro · 08.26.2011, 10:34 AM

I own it and was disappointed. I used to get excited about bootlegs in the 80s but now the recording just sounds crude and primitive.

Unless that your thing. I would love a 21st century boot say from aug 12.

well why haven't you download it then? http://www.nyctaper.com/?p=6903

this is a very nice recording, one of the best i have. definitely not crude or primitive.

noisereductions · 08.26.2011, 12:56 PM

the HTT versions of "Tuff Gnarl" and "Cotton Crown" are so awesome.
