Alison Moyet - Plenary Hall, Melbourne, Australia, 6-1-2025
I don't post music from the recent past like this very often. One of the main reasons for that is sound quality. One can find a steady steam of audience recordings of concerts that happened mere days ago, but I try to avoid audience boots due to the sound quality issue. However, this one is different. It's a rare IEM (in ear monitor) recording. That's a broadcast within the concert venue so the band members can hear what the others are doing. Somehow, someone made a bootleg out of that here. The sound quality is like an excellent soundboard or FM radio broadcast, which is rare for a concert only a few months old.
Moyet was touring to support her new album "Key." This was her first album in seven years. It mostly consists of rerecordings of songs from earlier in her career, but given different arrangements, and most of the songs are deep cuts.
While the sound quality is great overall, there was one problem: for her banter between songs, there was a lot of reverb or echo on her voice. So I ran all the banter tracks through the Adobe voice enhancement program, which brings clarity to voices.
This album is an hour and 35 minutes long.
