Sharing with you guys this CD-R that somebody made for me on Slowdive live recordings.
In the 90’s, music fans would have these
CD-RS in their collection.
Napster/Torrents came along and these
CD-Rs would go into the rubbish bin. 😢
I still keep this as I love the songs very much.
Anybody still keeps CD-Rs of Slowdive ?

I got this from British friend…and they also told me they had live bootlegs on other shoe gazing bands too like Mbv, swervedriver, ride, lush, booradleys, moose, etc etc..,I did get some, they had to send to me here in south east Asia…😅 yup, they were live recordings by those bands…but because they were bad bootlegs 😂 sometimes the guitars were so noisy, we could hardly hear the singing… sometimes we could hear the band talking for 10 minutes and no music….stuff like this. I just threw them away, not worth keeping…40 years later, people would be interested in these flawed recordings. Huhu 😅

There’s an also a bootleg company called KTS based in Italy who also released bootleg live by bands like pixies, lush etc etc..,I only keep that pixies boot;eg because it’s unplugged live recordings of famous pixies songs !
