"Live At Brixton Academy 23 October 1992" (Centre Hole Records)

It was a bootleg silver disc CD sourced from a multi-generation cassette recorded from the soundboard. Side 2 of the cassette the CD was mastered from suffered from wow distortion, and is missing the last 2 songs from the show. The 90 min cassette recording of this show has been in taper circles for a while previous to the CD pressing.

There is another show form this era that was pressed to CD by 2 other bootleg labels titled "Europe 92" (Live Storm) and "Close Encounters Of The Ultraworld" (Mind The Magic) . Although the setlists are the same, this recording was of a different show, an audience-sourced cassette from the same UK tour. Although not 100% positive, I believe this recording was from 10/28/92 as that was another cassette found on tape trader lists around the same time as the Brixton cassette ( I never got my hands on this cassette)

Subject: [Orb] Brixton Academy bootleg question

As we are so busy chatting these days: J

I recently bought the Brixton Academy 23 October 1992 bootleg. At first glance, it looks like I received a CD-R copy of the bootleg. It’s definitely not a factory pressed CD, and the label Pickwick Music is printed on the CD itself. Before I start bashing the seller, can anyone confirm/deny that my copy is a bootleg of a bootleg?

Regards,

Johan
