Camel
Odeon, Canterbury, UK
9 October 1978 (setlist.fm lists the date as the 10th)

Audience recording
Geoff Dennison (the taper) comments:
It was the first gig I ever attended! I am sorry that there isn't any more and that it sounds so bad!

Total time 14:06

I digitised in GarageBand playing on a nice Tascam deck I borrowed, and saved as AAC. I'll keep the old cassettes too though... I used a very versatile cassette recorder to record gigs on. It was called 'Superscope by Marantz'. With 2 tiny Sony mics I'd clip onto my jacket!

This is a "recording of indeterminate origin," i.e a bootleg. If you buy it from me it'll be the first time anyone in the band has seen a quid from it.

Thanks to Joerg (Propylaen2001) for the tapes

about

Richard Sinclair Martina Franca, Italy

The leading voice of the Canterbury Scene. Beginning with the Wilde Flowers, on to Caravan, Hatfield & the North, Camel and all his recent group efforts, Richard Sinclair's singing and bass playing have been a constant source of delight for lovers of Canterbury music. A deep, low voice, a talent for memorable melodies few can match, plus an imaginative and fluid technique on the bass and guitar. ... more
