(TV) Got my Academy CD!



I got my Academy CD today! Thanks so much Dennis, I really appreciate
the effort you put into distributing this.
It's a great feeling to hear a new official release from Television
again, albeit one I've already heard. The packaging is good quality.
The sound fidelity is very good, if a little trebly. Interestingly many
of the bootlegs from the first reunion tour are also trebly.
There's no hiss to speak of, its either been cleaned up, or more likely
recorded on a portable DAT recorder.
I can hear audience chatter all the way through, so I'm sure its an
audience recording, not a soundboard.
I know a certain journalist (who wrote contentious books on the NY scene
& Bob Dylan) recorded this show on DAT. Some of his recordings have
found their way into the hands of  bootleggers to become "commercial"
bootlegs (at least I think so). I wonder if this is his recording? If so
it would be sweet irony for Television, bootlegging the bootlegger!
Top marks to Television for finally releasing a good quality live show.
Lets hope they release more.
