LDB Special Series #52 Hello! Here is a new series from my collection. After the Master Series, here is the Special Series. Out of my 6,000+ shows and radio broadcasts, I have many concerts that were special for some reasons: the setlist, the musicians, the venue or unexpected events. These are the ones I'd like to propose you. Most of these come from my cassettes collection, so they will be released at a slower pace than my Master Series! But you won't be disappointed! I will try to gather the most unusual things I have in my collection and, as always, your feedback and comments will be my reward for all the work involved in this project.

I know the taper, he's very active in the region of Bologna but also travels quite a lot to see and tape shows abroad. I have quite a few from him. I like Tortoise a lot because they are the summary of what I like most in music: psichedelic, electronic rock, post-rock melted with jazzy sound (I love the vibes in jazz!) but also something from progressive with the double drums line-up. I can also hear some echoes from Morricone's sountracks for 'spaghetti western' movies from the 60's. And, what an inspired musicians who - unlike Mogwai (what a disappointment are they in live!) - can deliver great shows and lots of different atmospheres. This one was recorded during the 'Standards' tour in 2001, with a good mix of tracks from the last three albums. I need your assistance on the setlist because mine would not be 100% accurate. Sound quality is very good, though. This is the complete set, although a bit shorter than the standard setlist of that tour. As I said in the introduction, you can expect various kind of music from me! So don't be surprised if will get some more post-rockers in my Series! Enjoy, as always. It seems that this one is quite uncirculated. ldb App\Http\Controllers\Api\FileDownloadController::download(): Return value must be of type string, none returned
