Broadcast Collection 1972 - 1997
J**E
5 CD's of essential Bowie live Broadcasts.
Cd 1 The mix is very clear. The performance is top notch. Cd 1 by itself is worth the purchase as it captures Ziggy live. Cd 2 suffers a little sound quality wise. A bit Tinny on the high end. The Iggy performance is Red Hot and you can hear Bowies contributions clearly. Good Bass response. Cd3 starts off with NIN's set. which merges into Bowies set. A controversial pairing in concert but everything works to both Nin and Bowie's advantage. Clear recording. Great performance. CD4 continues with Bowie and NIN with a Good helping of tracks from Bowie's Outside release. Greatness. Cd 5 showcases tracks from Bowies 1997 Earthling tour. Fine quality recording. Conclusion - The bulk of this collection captures Bowies performances from some of his more extreme Nin influenced periods. A must for any Bowie collector but for a listener looking for some of Bowies lighter more mainstream friendly performances this might be the wrong stop overall. Overall Sound Quality B+ . Overall Performance quality A.

Brilliant Bowie
Excellent condition brilliant track selection superb sound quality the only reason this collection rated four star and not five star is because of the annoying breaks between tracks had it not had these breaks it would defiantly rate five 🌟 shame as I spoilt a really great set of cds

A very bad quality bootleg, nothing more
This has to be a bootleg, and if it is - as claimed on the box - licensed from "Entertain Me Ltd" (and I am going to check this claim) then I will be extremely surprised as the quality on offer here is so bad it's best avoided by anybody - not even die hard fans will find anything to like here.Whilst everything on this 5 disc set has already been out on bootlegs in much better quality in the past, what we have here sounds to me like it has been ripped from other CD's by someone who does not know what they are doing as between every single track on every single disc there is a 4 second silence, which oddly enough is the default setting for most rippers using the OS tools.Sound quality is a mixed bunch too - so far I have played them all except the Iggy Pop show, and the gapping is present on everything. Not only that, the disc 5 acoustic material is louder than the Santa Monica Ziggy show!I will be returning my copy for a refund - and I strongly urge anyone considering this to get something else as this is literally a ripoff.Truly awful.

⚡ ⚡Un prodotto del quale sicuramente si può fare a meno....
In un curioso jewel case multiplo (è la prima volta che ne vedo uno così e ormai non sono più in uso...) sono disponibili i 5 CD di questa raccolta di materiale troppo eterogeneo e ormai stranoto del nostro Duca Bianco.Contiene:CD 1 Live Santa MonicaCD 2 Iggy Pop Mantra Studios 1977 (Bowie solo al piano)CD 3 Bowie e Nine Inch Nails live 1995 parte 1CD 4 Bowie e Nine Inch Nails live 1995 parte 2CD 5 Seven Mounths in America 1997Riempitivo per collezioni maniaci di Bowie (come me!) o per chi, fino ad ora, ha acquisito solo le registrazioni ufficiali. In aggiunta la qualità del suono è troppo bassa ed è amplificata da uno stacco ingiustificato tra un brano e l'altro.Un prodotto del quale sicuramente si può fare a meno....

Another reissue
What can I say about a new version of all the live concerts previously published in 2018? The only good news is that both the quality of the burning and the sound are excellent and justify the purchase price.If you don't already have these concerts in your collection, this box-set is for you.
