 Fiona Apple - Capitol Theater, Port Chester, NY, 10-10-2012

Paula says: A few days ago, I made an announcement about a recent leak of dozens of soundboard concerts from a venue in Port Chester, New York. I'm going to wait a little bit to post much more of that music. For one thing, I see some people are breaking the single sound files into songs and/or converting the mono into some stereo separation. That will save me some drudge work. Also, I'm waiting to get more feedback on the poll request I made. But here's one that I felt inspired to fix and post sooner rather than later. It's a Fiona Apple concert from 2012.

The reason I was keen on posting this is because there is a surprising lack of live recordings from her with impressive sound quality. There are a few soundboard-level recordings from the first few years of her music career, in the 1990s. But after that, I believe it's been nothing but audience boots. So this is really welcome, because it's a true soundboard. 

I took the single sound file and chopped it into mp3s. I didn't attempt to fix the mono problem. The audience applause is pretty low in the mix. For some of the songs, I boosted the applause volume.

One reason there aren't a lot of great concert recordings from her is because she hasn't toured that much, so there haven't been many recording opportunities. For instance, I don't believe she's performed in public since 2020 (I'm writing this in 2026.) Her last big tour, so far, was in 2012, supporting the album "The Idler Wheel..." So naturally there a lot of songs here from that album. She ended the concert with a cover of "It's Only Make Believe" by Conway Twitty.

This album is an hour and 25 minutes long.
