I'm looking to replace two precious (to me) import CDs that I've lost, the first to multiple unpolishable scratches, the second to the dreaded CD rot. I apologize that one of them is a Bowie CD, but you this may be my last hope.




1) Bob Dylan, "The Jokerman has Just Left the Stadium" (Unknown Label) This is from the same European tour (1984)that was recorded on the CBS record "Real Live." Has Mick Taylor on lead guitar, with appearances by Joan Baez and Carlos Santana.




2) David Bowie, "Suffragette City" (Great Dane Records) This CD recorded Nassau Colisseum, Long Island, NY., 1976 (originally a radio broadcast).




NB I have numerous Dylan and Stones imports on the Great Dane Records label, which is notorious for CD rot. Any horror stories I should know about any particular releases? How come no other label remasters these titles, about to be lost...like tears in rain?

I have some info on the Bowie CD. It looks like you mean the show at the Nassau Coliseum in New York on February 12, 1976.


Setlist: 1 Station to station, 2 Suffragette City, 3 Fame, 4 Stay, 5 Panic in Detroit, 6 Changes, 7 TVC15, 8 Diamond Dogs, 9 Rebel Rebel, 10 The Gean Genie. (total 66'04")




This show is released in Germany on the imtrat label under the name Live USA (in the Live & Alive series)
