Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

8.20.95 Cincinnati Music Hall – Cincinnati, OH

Live Trax Vol. 60 takes us back to 1995, finding the band in the middle of forging a now classic sound; with a twist. David Ryan Harris, who was touring in support of DMB as part of Dionne Farris’ band, sits on electric guitar to add some firepower to Rhyme & Reason and Jimi Thing. Near the end of a segue way laced set, Dave gives a glimpse into the future with a solo acoustic version of an early Raven, with Little Thing folded in throughout. Listening back to this era, with its equal parts intimacy and intensity should be a joy for fans of any era of the band!

Very nice, definitely getting this one.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Show is awesome. Cover art is great. Satellite shirts are bad :lol

Love the choice

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Finally!

Love this show

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Man David Ryan Harris is awesome. This is great.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Yes! :multi

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Not here to hate, but whoever decided on this release, did they not know Live Trax 5 was already released? It's literally from 3 days earlier, with DRH guesting on the exact same songs as LT. 5.

The Raven is worth it here I suppose, just a very odd selection. If we were going back into the vault, why not another 92/93 show?

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

another local release! will 100% be buying. the merch is ugly though lmao

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Awesome. What a treat.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

That being said, I will take any pre-Crash PM with those epic Roi solos.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

I’m seeing they have Little Thing listed on the same track as Ants Marching. Really hope that’s a typo

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Was hoping for vinyl

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

same. we'll get it one day

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Hate it when they have two songs on the same track!

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Do people still listen to CDs? Probably won't buy a Live Trax until they release it in vinyl.

Is there a reason they don't these in vinyl often? There seems to be a decent demand, I would pay more no questions asked.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

To hell with it, I’m preordering the t shirt with the CD. What the hell happened to the 24/96 FLAC downloads!

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

If you know you know.

This, LT5 and RR95. What a run that week was

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Pre-Crash #41 and Say Goodbye, early Raven, and and True Reflections make this show unique enough to merit a release IMO.

I'm a little confused by the tracking of Ants > Little Thing, but whatever. Beautiful cover art.

Now we just need the 9/3/95 Typical with Dione Farris released. She kills it.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Agreed. Not to mention, this is also a special Halloween. That song was a staple in the early days, up until April of '95. It was played just once more in 1995 (8.20.95) and then only once more before it was reworked for Scream 2/BTCS. That date was 10.31.96.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

You can buy a digital download in FLAC format if you prefer not to buy a CD. As to vinyl, it's extremely time consuming to produce vinyl right now because the pressing plants can't produce enough fast enough. They probably would have had to wait 6 months to release this on vinyl and they probably prefer to make money now rather than wait for vinyl to be available. They probably already have another vinyl release in production currently that will be released later this year like they have typically been doing.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Were 24-bit downloads available for other really old shows? My guess is that 24-bit source material didn't become available until sometime later. These old shows were probably recorded in 16-bit, but I don't know.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

LT33 was available as 24/96, I get this tape might not have allowed for audiophilic purposes, but there were lots of examples of LTs around LT45s time frame where they probably had that capacity.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Here's to hoping we get an awesome show on vinyl in the near future. Am also in the Twin Cities-cheers.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

I understand the appeal of having huge cover art, and the pops and hiss of vinyl can add atmosphere to an album, but...

1) Especially for a live album, I want as few breaks as possible. A CD allows for 75 - 80 minutes of play without interruption; you have to flip your vinyl after about 40 minutes, right? Which means there are times (due to song lengths) where you need 3 LPs (i.e. 5 side flips/record changes) instead of changing the CD once.

2) CDs are less fragile (I've melted vinyl by leaving it in a car)-- which means there's also much less chance of a CD getting damaged in the mail when it's shipped to you (since not all couriers are gentle with packages).

3) You're much less likely to get a bad copy of a CD - it seems like so many ants have gotten bad pressings of vinyl and had to contact MusicToday to get it replaced.

4) If you don't live in the US, it can be VERY expensive to get vinyl shipped to you.

Also, and I recognize the U2 fan base is older, but yesterday @U2songs posted poll on twitter asking "When U2 releases their next album, which format are you likely to be found listening to it on the most?"
28% have said CD
22% have said vinyl
24% have said buying a digital copy (e.g. from iTunes)
26% have said streaming.

Since DMB continues to release CDs, and older DMB fans are going to be a similar age to U2 fans (and so likely have similar thinking), CDs are likely quite popular with DMB fans.

I'm not criticizing you for preferring vinyl (like what you want to like!) but there are a lot of CD fans still out there.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

I still gleefully order live shows available on CD from this band.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

DMB is the only band I still buy cds from for the physical copy because I have everything thus far. If they switched to digital only they'd lose money from me.

Re: Live Trax Vol. 60: 8.20.95 - Cincinnati Music Hall
 

Very excited about this one!! Great selection from an amazing time period for the band. Love the cover art, too! Hope it's a great mix/master! :thumbsup
