Visions
Asbury Park, NJ
May 2, 1986
I could find no reference to "Visions" as a music venue in Asbury Park, N.J. But I REALLY like this graphic design by Gregory Attonito |
audience recording (sound quality VG; decent-sounding recording, with a PA mix that takes until the end of track 3 to settle in; infrequent crowd chattiness near the taper + occasional phase shifts).

Thanks Rob! Have there been other extra bonus sets like that which might have slipped by the less vigilant visitor?
ReplyDeleteStart with the Sneakers post last month and check comments for that and for each post thereafter. You'll find any you might've missed...
DeleteGot it... Unreleased Rittenhouse Square, now that's amazing rarity.
DeleteYou never know what might turn up during a musical scavenger hunt...
DeleteThanks. Chances are this was at either the Fast Lane or The Stone Pony if it is from Asbury Park. I saw them open for Marshall Crenshaw at the 'Pony around this time period. Maybe the same show ?!? Larry
ReplyDeleteThanks, Larry. dB's Fan supplied me the tape source, which simply had the word "Visions" in front of "Asbury Park" on the insert card, so I was just passing along what little I knew. I kinda doubt this was L.A. opening for anyone, though. They typically did 17 or 18 song sets when they were headlining... Only other possible explanation would be a double bill with Crenshaw.
DeleteWow Many Many Thanks! Love Tractor, Pylon, Only Ones, Lets Active! My weekend is complete. Have you ever seen a Lets Active soundboard from 86 87 @The Brewery in Raleigh, NC. Mitch had a multitrack truck parked out back to record a live album but I never saw anything come out. Great Show for me, but maybe wasn't for him. I saw the Only Ones in Atlanta at the Agora in 79 opening up for the Restraints. Can't wait to hear the show you have posted. Anyway, Thanks again for your time and effort to share these musical memories.
ReplyDeleteWelcome aboard, WS. Don't know anything about the L.A. show you describe, but I will be sure to ask Mitch about it. Glad to hear of your interest in Pylon & Only Ones, too. Enjoy!
DeleteWell, I checked with Mitch, using the details you provided. I'm afraid he knows nothing about any such recording. (Perhaps you saw a recording truck setting up for a different act or project?)
DeleteRob, Thanks for checking it for me. Must have been someone else, things from back then get foggy sometimes, well actually they were sometimes fuzzy back then anyway. Thanks again, ws
