1ST EVER Kate Bush Soundboard Surfaces

Kate Bush boards and dime torrent site are ablaze right now with what seems to be the first ever Kate Bush soundboard from her one and only tour of 1979.
It appears to be a video rip of a concert that was filmed by Granada TV in '79 from the Manchester Apollo. The entire concert was filmed, but was never shown on tv. The concert was then shown at a special event in a hotel in Stourbridge in England in 2011 (info here http://thehomegroundandkatebushnewsandi ... 2YysBFf8yo) NOW, it seems that an audio rip of that footage is doing the rounds.

To my ears it sounds fantastic for such an old recording. It could possibly be improved with some audio wizardry but my god what a treat. Anticipation is high for the full video to appear at some point. Fingers crossed for that one.
This soundboard is not perfect, not by todays standards, but remember this is from 1979!!!

It's been added to dimeadozen torrent site (a HUGE number of downloads already) and is said to be being added to others (not had time to check other sites yet)

Seek, download and prepare for quite a significant event in Kate Bush bootleggery.

Here is the download link http://wtrns.fr/974QDoBh26xrovf (valid till April 1st)

This link will probably be snipped soon so be quick. wink

Please bear in mind this is not on a par with things like Prince's '84 Birthday soundboard. The vocals on the first 2 songs seem a little distant to me, but after that things pick up and it's all good. It's nice to hear Kate talk into her Headphone mic (used years before Madonna and others..hehe) before the show and before songs. Compared to all the other Kate bootlegs from this tour, which sound quite bad, this is very very good indeed for a 30+ year old show, and it's complete!
Enjoy to the max.
