1st demos 
Spring / Summer 1984 

tracklist

   Kindly provided by RH, and shared here for the first time, that I know of. This is a second generation copy, so it's a bit hissy as a result, but not enough to detract from the proceedings.
RH: " 'The End' were an 80's group from Texas. Austin or maybe Dallas - can't remember. TM was good friends with them. So was Woody, Dr. Death of Deadly Records - the promoter of the KLSU Section 25 show in 1985. "The End" were all about dark, synth wave. They played a lot of shows in Louisiana. I think they had one 7" and one 12". Saw them a few times - really good live." 'Love Comes Home' written by Tench only. The rest are Tench/David.
Would love to find whether these are listed on Discogs but as there's 80+ bands with that name, and over 2100 different releases to sift through.

Note: This should have been a FLLR MB release, but I hadn't put together all the pieces to figure that out, hopefully my recent and future entries will.

    Hey THO! Think the link to the files here actually links to Discogs. Any chance of a fix, please?

FLLR GB001 - GaoBest tapes - Saint Etienne

  South Parade Pier, Portsmouth FLLR GB001 = Saint Etienne This first selection from this Maxell XLII 90 minute tape was recorded on 1993-03-05 at South Parade Pier, Portsmouth. Taper is abbreviated as YP, who probably recorded with a Sony TC-D3 DAT and Aiwa CM-30 mics.  GaoBest's copy comes directly from the taper. It's one of his favorites, he played it frequently before it got shelved and then loaned out to me to ascertain and compare to what's already out there.   This show is already up on YouTube, here, from  "whatdoidonow 1997 ", and my tape source doesn't better it. Turns out that my tape ran a bit fast compared to this reference, so slowed it down 4.67% or about .79 a semitone, so that it is the exact same 45:00 length.  I've also provided the original transfer so you can compare and conclude it indeed runs too fast. NOTE: this is not just true for Portsmouth, as it was pointed out to me, but for the entire tape, so I've also speed corrected t...

FLLR DAT-01 - A Box of DATs

My project for this part of the year is to transfer a huge cache of DATs (pictured above) that contain much that likely has already been put out there but also seems to have quite a bit that has not. So of course here at tapefiller.org the whole point isn't to present these (they will go through the usual channels) but instead, anything that wasn't listed on either the spine or in an insert, grouped in digestible bites of songs. So without any further ado, here's the first set. Nirvana - Return Of The Rat (The Wipers) .   The description can tell it to you better than I can... looks like the taper/compiler had a copy of the Eight Songs For Greg Sage and the Wipers comp. Hole - Over The Edge (The Wipers) [cut] It's probably not becoming to give any credence to any conspiracy theories about Kurt's passing but let's just say reading about the possibilities did pass the time for me one warm summer nearly 30 years ago...Amusing to see the guy still at it...though ...

FLLR GB002 - GaoBest tapes - Pulp Roskilde Festival 1998 [FM0]

thehappyone (me) GaoBest supplied me with a black TDK Black Limited SA90 type II cassette, which I used to improve the audio shared with the original RollingRockVideos footage, which you can see here: RollingRockvideos  (not me) Here are scans of the cassette (A Side, after I digitized so not rewound) and J card inserts: And here's a link to the FLAC set  for nerds wanting the original in lossless format.  This was a more recent digitization used for the YouTube share, with slightly tweaked audio, though it's substantially identical, I don't edit out any announcers or anything like that. Other ephemera associated with this gig... One of the Pulp band members (guitarist Mark Webber) was interviewed about their favorite Roskilde memories: Also, one track...quite a rare one live called "I'm The Man" was pro-shot, and can be seen here: Dargun Evans
