There's a wonderful compilation of Gillian Welch and David Rawlings soundboards over at Big O this morning and (again?! >>sigh<<) if you can stand the comments section and the troll plethora of neanderthal Americans hurling half baked and sophomoronic insults and sexist racist abuse at each other and anyone who stops by often enough it is really worth downloading This is truly a peach. Disc 1-3 of a six disc collection so there is more to come and this one has 42 tracks! Well worth having and the finest quality
For some time now, I have been making “The Soundboard Archive” compilations. My live-music collection had become so massive that I thought it pointless to keep “multiple-to-the-nth-degree” versions of the same songs, especially for “non-jam” bands: thus the genesis of this project of mine.
This has been my methodology:
1. Choose a trade-friendly artist & venue (= “not on Dime’s NAB or NAV lists”) & collate all of the tracks from my “SBD” flac/shn files for said artist.
2. Listen to each track and choose what sounds to my ears to be the “best” version.
3. As needed, rename each chosen track.
4. Compile “the winners” into a “The Soundboard Archive” collection – after ensuring that NO included tracks have been officially released. (Each text file contains information about those shows/songs which had been officially released at the time of my compilation.)
ENJOY! Support the artist and buy the officially-released items!
