Lineage:
original silver CDs --> EAC --> FLAC

Cover art is included. (Note specially the scratched-out label numbers on the
CDs! So these are really >>bootlegs<< to the core.)

Note on Beethoven's #9 Symphony: I think we - at DimeADozen - came to the
conclusion, that the inclusion of this particular intro (taken from
Clockwork Orange OST) is tolerated in the torrents.

Info taken from Bassman's Site:
This re-issue is a "killer"! The cover is made as an LP fold out cover in CD
size, and each disc has a blue and white picture inner sleeve. Great and highly
appreciated! The same excellent sound quality as on the Japanese original has
been maintained. Same as the CD PARIS AU PRINTEMPS (1990).

Note: the additional text at Bassman's Site refers to the cover art of
PARIS AU PRINTEMPS, not of VISIONS AND SOUNDS.


Personal note:
In my current sharing mood of original silvers of Bowie boots, I originally
wished to share my favourite boot from 1990: Rock In Rio. However, since user dan_augen
beat me on this, I selected another one. This is a very early show of this
fantastic tour. The set list and the performances of the songs changed a bit
till the later part (as on Rock In Rio).

Therefore this early show is very interesting. Particularly 'Golden Years' is
nicely performed.

Unfortunately, Bassman's quality rating "excellent sound quality" is not true IMHO.
Judge for yourself with the attached sample. Compared with other releases from
this tour, it is hard to believe that this is a soundboard recording. If so, then it
is really a bad soundboard.

So I mainly recommend this show to true Bowie fans. If you are interested in excellent
shows (sound quality wise) then look for the Milton Keynes show, which has been/is
seeded here: http://www.dimeadozen.org/torrents-details.php?id=102085
(pre-FM, with edited China Girl).
However, IMHO particularly that Milton Keynes show is performence wise rather
"un-inspired". Rock In Rio is the true gem of the tour, although the sound quality
on Rio is not as good as on Milton. Other good releaes are from the Tokio shows (but
not that awful "Tour 1990" 4-CD-set!).

There are some more good quality recordings from 1990. I may share some more in the
coming weeks.
